The Team at Strictly Canine

Some of the team competed or trained at the Strictly Canine HTM Competition held at Arena UK Allington.  Team supporter Allan Brown took these photos.
Dewy and Lesley gained a 5th place in the Advanced Heelwork To Music class, very good for a young dog who has only just worked his way up to the Advanced classes.
In the Advanced Freestyle Class Dewy pulled out all the stops and flew through the air to gain 2nd place.   Watch out for flying Beardies!"
Helen and Maia gained a third place at the competition.  
Maia kicked her feet out around the large arena having the time of her life! 
Kath and her youngest dog Denby were entered in the HTM Class but just took advantage of the huge ring for working out a floor plan of their new routine in preparation for the OEC!
A good game of tuggy set the right atmosphere too - more play than work!!   Kath other two team dogs (Amber and Spice) had good fun the following day in the same ring during a Training Show.
 Nicci Hindson was very busy running the show but made time to do two nice training rounds with Nala.
 Lots of reward for the new sections of her heelwork to build her confidence
 With some proofing work on parts of her freestyle where she was starting to anticipate.
Nicci was very pleased with how she worked.

Fund Raising at Just Dogs Live

Earlier in the year team member Christina was asked by the organisers of Just Dogs Live to do some displays for them with her dogs, as well as taking seminars on dog behaviour and running 'have a go at HTM' sessions. She's delighted to say that the organisers have been very supportive of the team going to the OEC and are more than happy for the team to sell the hand made team tuggies and beautiful pens at the event to raise money for the team funds. 
Thank you from the whole of Team GBR to the organisers of 
Just Dogs Live http://www.justdogslive.co.uk/  
 If you're free on the 4th, 5th or 6th July why not pop along for a great day out with your dog? 
Christina would also like to say a huge thank you to Stacey from Well Dog Hydrotherapy  http://welldoghydrotherapy.co.uk/    who will be selling items for the team when Christina and her dogs are busy in the display rings or seminar rooms. 
Stacey will also be able to sell pens and tuggies at her work so if you live near Peterborough and would like to buy some do pop along to the Hydrotherapy Centre.
