SHOW REPORTS
 SupaDog
Agility Rescue League
The 2010 finals were held on the Saturday at Just Dogs Live. The weather was hot hot
hot and so were the dogs. There were some splendid rounds from these second-hand
dogs.
KCI Agility Festival
The results of the prestigious Cup classes and all three days of competition are now
available on-line.
 European
Open 2010
Competing in these Finals
could well be a dictionary definition for the word 'pressure' and every one of the GB
team performed extremely well against the very best in the world.
SPECIALS
 Have-A-Go
Agility
The Kennel Club is very keen on introducing the public to agility via the Have-A-Go ring but is
it worth the cost of hiring and transporting the equipment to the event? Steph King went to the
Watford demo at Gatcombe Park Festival of Eventing and this was her blog.
 Laverock
Holiday Cottage Competition Winners
Neville Turner who judged the Laverock Holiday Competition was overwhelmed by the number
and quality of entries received and the stories they told. 'Everyone was a winner,' he said. '
My wife and I were frequently reaching for the box of tissues. Congratulations to the winners -
Jackie Bromwich and Sheena Scrafton.
 Smart
Clinic
Many agility handlers might have wondered why Gemma Osmond took her dogs
to the Smart
Clinic for an assessment when there was nothing obvious wrong with them. But she thought
better safe than sorry.
 Agility's
Got Talent
You thought that Tina and Chandi were the only dog act on Britain's Got Talent.
Well, our own mother/daughter act Vanessa and Lisa Hardin almost got to the
live shows with their agility dogs Tia, Tazi and Trouble.
 Mongrel
Madness
Ruby Shorrock prefers mixed breeds to pedigrees and says that her favourite
breed is ‘rescued.' She has vowed that throughout her life she will only ever have
rescued dogs and what's more, she loves agility. Her story brought tears to Mike
Afia's eyes.
Moving Up
The most frequently asked questions about going up to the next grade of a Kennel Club
show answered including clarification that, in order to count towards progression, a
round must be clear and in time.
 Give
Your Dog a Bone?
Dogs love bones. It's a fact. But did you know that some bones can be
dangerous. Here are some tips on how to keep your dog happy and safe.

FEATURES
Brags & Anti Brags

We reveal the identity of the Agilitynet Agony Aunt and try to help solve your
agility problems. All questions large and small tackled.
Rainbow Bridge
Jackie Bromwich's Lace has gone to the Rainbow Bridge to be with the
other Foxtwists. Jayne Bray has lost her Buzzy Bad Boy, the first crossbreed CC
winner and a loyal (and protective) friend.
Boogie was Hannah Banks' blue eyed boy who, over the years, took her to many finals.
Brags & Anti-Brags
Congratulations to Peggy Sidewater's Bryn who wins his first rosette
(ever) for never having any clear rounds! On the other hand, Chris Stamp competed with his chocolate St.
Poodle Barnaby for about seven years and says they never left a show without a placed
rosette. Now it's your chance to boast, crow, show off or blow your own
trumpet about your agility highs and lows.
