"The great pleasure of a dog is that you may make a fool of yourself with him and not only will he not scold you,
 but he will make a fool of himself too."

R.I.P 'Jaz'
 18th January 2003  - 11 September 2009

After having to put Jaz to sleep in September, it has taken me time to get back to 'normal' if that will ever be possible again. He was  taken much to soon. He taught me more than I can ever explain to anyone. My only hope is that I can use this knowledge to continue helping other people and their dogs, and that I can someday meet him again to say thank you.

My sincere gratitude to the support and condolences recieved from all of you through this time. It is most comforting to know that he was so well loved. x.

         Crufts 2008


Just back from my first time at Crufts and what a place! It's bigger than you imagine, and after 4 days there were still things we didn't get to see. I was on stage training with 'Foxy', one of Mary Ray's border collies. Mary Ray is a famous clicker trainer and brought Heelwork to music into the public domain.
