As the canicross/bikejor season ends the agility begins. Our agility trainer is the wife of the coach of the agility GB team and one thing they are both very good at is sports psychology. We often joke that I go to agility with Karen just to argue with her! Realistically…

So we possibly say that Dill is amazing so much that it is probably a bit annoying. Saying that... he makes us incredibly proud. The best thing about the last few races hasn't been the racing - though it has been really good! - it has been the number of…

So you hear quite a lot that canicross training shouldn't start till a dog is a year old because a dog needs time to grow, they need time to be a dog. Though we agree with this in part, a dog does need to have finished most if not all…
