Tonight was ACWAs Christmas wind-up. We haven't trained for a few weeks but went along for a laugh. After a nice run in the restrained recall Selby was a little bit too wound up for the tunnel challenge (a shame as she nailed it last year!).
We got a lovely surprise when the club awards were presented and Selby and I were given this years' Encouragement Award. I missed most of the speech due to inattention but the bits I did catch were mostly about Selby's increased control and her managing to complete a trail without running away!! And how did Selby celebrate - by running away at all 3 runs in the relay challenge after the awards presentation :) That's my puppy for you! It really was great to get the award though and we'll take that into next year.
