9 year old Safari-Ari and 19 month old Pelee had a very successful DockDogs World Championships.

Ari finished in the exact middle of the pack of veteran dogs with some 17 and 18 foot jumps. I think we could have got better scores but I messed up all her throws, she was testing out her new knees, and it was only her second competition back so I think that's a great showing for her! Best of all she seems physically fine and no worse for wear from competing.

Pelee had a 10'2 and a time out day one and an 8 foot and a time out day 2. She's still hesitating but Worlds was a lot for her puppy brain. It took me until finals to figure out what she needed that is different from what I'm so used to with Ari. I tweaked my routine and got 2 jumps for finals! 9'8" had her take 4th place Novice!! She has such potential and this was an awesome end to her rookie year!

I have such good girls!!

I have no medals to show you from the weekend and yet it was one of the best I've ever had competing. With experience you really learn that it truly isn't about the placements and wins and personal bests. It's about this. Her and me. Doing what we love.

New knees, same heart.

Safari-Ari says "Pack my bag mum I'm ready!". Ari has been given the okay to play DockDogs this weekend! She has to take it easy but is sooooo excited. We will be chasing a last minute qualifier for Veteran (fingers crossed)

10 weeks post-op tomorrow. Week 8 was rough with muscle soreness but she's back on track to recovery again. X-ray is from 8 weeks post op and means nothing to me but the experts say the bone is still healing but looks good. I'm happy to see the muscle definition in this picture. We're working on that fur re-growth! 🤣. Thank you to Ashley St John and Essex Animal Hospital for helping us through and always indulging my crazy. Still a long road ahead but we're traveling there together Ari.
p.s. - Pelee is looking for some sympathy for her little nose. She didn't like waiting in the crate at Ari's last rehab appointment and threw a fit it seems.

Someone took her first steps post-TPLO surgery just an hour before her rehab appointment at Essex Animal Hospital. FINALLY! Her recovery has been slow and stressful. Hoping the rest of recovery isn't so.
