Guest Lea Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 Sadist.Christine R and I both have to read out the results at the presentations at our respective shows and we won't appreciate having to get our tongues round that one at all. It gets worse ... my last name is Polish, people have enough trouble with that as it is. :P You'll have a few months of tongue-twisting peace yet; she won't be making her debut until Golden Valley in June.

lucyandmeg Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 I do agility with my 3, but am a useless handler! Meg has been doing it for 2 years and started competing last summer. She is an extremely fast collie, so keeping up with her is always an issue! Her KC name is Midnight Mystic Meg. We train twice a week and have free access to a full agility course. Ellie and Murphy both run for fun and have competed in nursery at uka once last year, but not being collies they aren't quite as interested! Ellies uka name is Dawnlight Golden Belle, (shes a goldie and we call her ellie belly!) and murphy's is Murphy's Irish Dream. (He was an irish rescue.)

You're not wrong there although the worst I think are the Welsh names - just can't get my tongue round these at all!!! :lol: :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it would matter when it comes to the Welsh ones. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wombat Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 My writing's appalling so I always have to print when I'm scoring Levi Wabbit- Levi is the name he came with at 10mnths sothought it a bit mean to change it, and Wabit coz his ears get in his collar like a lop ear when you put it on. First few shows we got eliminated every class coz he didn't like being away from his Mum, but then he started getting into it and last season we qualified out of Elementary. I've just sent off his reg for rescue dog league. Gizmo will hopefully be The Tenacious Tigger- staffiex lurcher/collie type. 11 months and playing with a bit of training but taking it real slow. Oh and my hubby is a saint- I'm addicted and don't get many weekends free so intend to go to Supadogs plus Uka Week followed by Dashin DogsWeek. Might manage one week with him :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruby1Nic Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 I do agility with our Lab, Ruby. I think I enjoy it more than she does though ! She kind of trundles round but I sometimes still stuggle to keep up. It's only for fun. Been going about 4 months now. She's still a bit of a minx though & will sometimes run off to se what the other doggies are up to instead of concentrating on her round ! (she's 2 yrs 4mths). Mind you the thrill I get when she's done a good round - wish I could bottle that feeling We haven't done the seasaw yet and have only done the cloth tunnel a few times - she wasn't keen on that at all.

Guest karenf Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 My Brittany, (retired) is called "Exocet Sid", as when we got him he had a history of destruction, so i thought "French missile that destroys everything it touches" , as I was already competing with my other dog I sent his paperwork off quickly. As it turned out, with regular thrice daily walks, and training he never has destroyed anything in 9 years! Shame on me. My Collie Bitch was rehomed because of aggression, so she became "Phantom Menace" coz she could creep up on something like a phantom and she was a bl**dy Menace Some of the KC names I really like are Something for the week-end Cunning Stunt Catch me if you Can Paws for Breath Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PennyB Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 I do agility for fun with my two cockers, Wilf and Ruby. We couldn't get into the club anyway as they're always full so we go to sessions on someone's farm near to the club who're also agility instructors there anyway.

Karen Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Rosie lab and I did a beginners course leading up to Christmas. Haven't heard dates for starting the next course which is a bit of a pity as I think Rosie could be quite good as she's really fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzycharm Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 I have been doing agility for 19 years (which isn't bad as I'm just coming up to 26), doesn't mean I'm that good at it, but we give it our best lol. Here are our dog's KC names: Charm - Star Charm of Fluke Bryn - Starazaz Patch (not our choice) Gem - Got A Gem From Valgray Dizzy - JD's Dizzy Girl Breeze - Sadar Fly To Freedom Twiglett - JD's Get Twiggy With It I used to love our white GSD's name, which was White Knight Snow Trooper (he was a handsome lad).
