You and Spice achieve a lot of good results during the years. Who gave you the right advice at the beginning. Tell us a little of your debut in agility... How did you get involved with Agility?
I started agility 10 years ago after going to watch a friend training their Aussie. I had always thought that agility was only for big dogs but found out about the different height categories. At the time I had a very tiny spaniel called Ellie so I started training her and then got hooked.
I ad sone great advice from my first trainers who have turned out to be very good friends ad ave been incredibly supportive. I have had some amazing advice and support from my trainers over the years especially Barre James and Dave Munnings.
The last year you and Spice were present at the AWC in Czech Rep. At the end you finished 13th in the overall ranking, how was this experience for you?
it was probably one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had in agility. The atmosphere was just beyond imagination. I loved the whole event and Spice worked so beautifully for me. I had a great team around me and would have loved to have gone again in 2013 but I will not go to South Africa so will have to hope we are still in form in 2014!
