From Ann Carrington:
Recently I won the
opportunity to train with Lesley thanks to an on-line auction via facebook raising funds for the Team to compete in Stuttgart Germany..
First of all I was
very impressed with her set up with a brilliant area for training and a great
place to exercise dogs off lead. It was such a great session and opened my eyes
to a lot of things that are not usually covered in freestyle training classes
simply because there isn't time. The idea of choreography filled me with dread,
I have absolutely no skills in that what so ever and to coordinate movements and
music for myself let alone my dog requires a whole new skill set that I needed
to develop.
Whilst I have
researched on the net many times about choreography there's nothing I've found
that actually gives the bare bones of the skill.
The time just flew
by and even though Lesley was very generous in giving more of her time that was
bid for, it seemed sadly to go in the blink of an eye but yet we covered so much
in that time.
Canine freestyle
for me is addictive, the more I do and learn the more I want to know and learn
and I just so wish that there was an on-line auction every day, I'd be there!!!
Misty my Border Collie boy always loves his training sessions and I'm sure he got as much out this exciting time with Lesley as I did.
All I can say is
thank you very much Lesley for your generosity with your time and efforts we
both got so much out of it and that Misty and I truly appreciated the
opportunity we had.
