Polish Agility Cup Final, Gliwice
Final of Polish Agility Cup was the last competition for us this year. We didn't grab any good results beside
very smooth run with Wermut in final agility. We managed to catch clear run in pretty good time which put us in the
first place. Not a bad result especialy taking into consideration I didn't even walk the full course once as course walk
was together with my run with Drago on the second ring;)
Our Sunday agility with Wermut:)

Cup Mania Agility Competition, Kamenny Mlyn, Slovakia
Very nice long weekend for us. Long travel on Thursday, quality free time on Friday with some good fried cheese and
'Zlaty Bazant' beer. Competition itself very nice with number of top european dogs! With Wermut again we had to focus
on contact zones as we've totally lost them on the competitions:( Drago on Saturay decided to test my nerves but on Sunday he was
doing his best and finished number of courses 'in good style';)
Thanks to www.agility-gallery.com for the beautiful photos of my dogs!
29th-30th May 2010
Agility Competition, Lomianki, Poland
Very nice competition 4km from my parents' house:))) Couldn't be closer! Drago was doing his best but judges decided
to set the times a little bit too short for bully legs;) With Wermut we focused on correcting 'stay' on the start and
contact zones so pretty much we've collected disqualifications. But in the last jumping we managed to catch pretty good
time and despite the fault for the knocked bar we won the Jumping2 course:)
Thanks to all the photographers for proving with those wonderful pics that I have 'dynamite-bull':D:D:D
21st-23rd May 2010

15th-16th May 2010
Agility Competition, Cracow
National Terrier Show, Czestochowa
National Dog Show, Czestochowa
Very busy weekend for our team! Ladies decided to go for the show.
Demona was highly recognized by English judges and she won open class,
got excellent and CWC, best bitch and BOB on both days! C
ongratulations to Kasia for great handling! Additionally our co-owned Trojka on Sunday won champions class:)
Together with boys we went for the agility competition in Cracow.
Saturday was pretty good day for us with Wermut gaining first certification to LA3 class.
Additionally we managed to be second in the open agility and only 1 knocked bar in jumping took us of the podium
in the overall standings. With Drago we had some good time and got on the podium in the exams;)
Sunday was a disaster with horrible rain that started already on Saturday evening.
By 10am it got so bad that organizers together with judge decided to finish only exams and cancel the rest of the
competition. And it was very good decision! Dogs somehow didn't have any problems with water and mud on the ground nor
with slipping
but handlers were sinking up to their ankles in the moist ground. Drago was doing his best in such an extreme conditions but my brain got
washed away and I've forgotten the course... luckily not very often condition for me;)
Wermut decided to be a good boy and even though I was moving around (you couldn't call it 'running';)) in huge rain coat
and kalosze we won LA2 exam
with clean run! Second certification to LA3 for us!
Just to give you a flavor of Cracow Sunday disaster- thanks Marysia for the photos!
9th May 2010
Agility Competition, Dobre Miasto
Drago decided to spend the weekend by himself and went for agility competition with Hanka.
They had some good fun during the
open courses when they took different direction approaching the finish line;)
However in the MA1 exams they did very good. In the first MA1
exam of the day unfortunately they had to repeat majority of the course due to the number left in the weaving pools.
They managed to produce clean run but were off the standard course time by 1s:(
During second MA1 exam they were unbeatable and grabbed first certificate to MA2.
I am soooo proud of them!!!:)
1st May 2010

'adult' show!
24th-25th April 2010
World Champs Qualifications, Czeladz, Poland
Very long and exhausting weekend for us with some nice results. Drago upheld family honour and took 2nd and 3rd place
respectively in the MA3 exams in both days. With Wermut we had mixed results. I am very content with Saturday jumping when only
knocked bar took us out of the top 5. Sunday started even better with clean run in LA2 exam but we've lost podium by 0,1s...
Next time will be better!:)
27th-28th March 2010
Osa Vosa Agility Cup, Ostrava, Czech Republic
Amazing weekend for us under austrian judge Bernard Huppe. On Saturday Drago completed 3 clean runs with only time faults.
With Wermut we had nice jumping run but knocked bar took us out of the podium. Sunday started very good with Wermut completing smooth and clean run in agility open in reasonable time.
Truly memorable moment for us- first clean and winning run in agility with Wermut! We've closed the day with little bit
chaotic but finally clean run in jumping open, finished 2nd. Thanks to this we also took 2nd
place in overall Vosa Cup standings for the 2 days of competition. I could even call this weekend historic for us;)))
