Hi Folks, it’s all go here – I’m having a ball. It’s end to end activity in our house. My mam’s taking me to flyball on Wednesday nights. It’s brilliant – racing to the box to get the ball, then racing back, running away with the ball if i can get away with it!! Agility is great fun too – I competed in my first show in Athy last weekend – a bit scary but great fun. Mam tells me which way to go and I follow. I love the high jumps and the see saw and the tunnels, and I’m trying really hard not to get too impatient but it’s soooo much fun that I can’t contain myself. All my friends were there last weekend – Lily, my JRT best friend, Murph the Yorkie, Cosmo and Sasha the boxers, Molly & Polly the collies and Whippy the whippet. On the way home I was exhausted and just conked out in the back seat of the car. My next competition will be in Tymon Park on June 21 and I can’t wait!

My brother Cassius had an operation last week and has stitches in his tummy so he can’t go for walks for a week, so that means I get to go on my own with my Daddy every day to the park – happy days!! I love sniffing in the woods and when I discover rabbit holes I can put my head right down inside them and have a right old root around. There are some really dirty pools in the park and it’s great fun jumping into them but Daddy gets cross when I come out all dirty and smelly.

Here’s a photo of me in the Athy show. Mammy says I’m her little princess and it doesn’t matter if we get eliminated in the competition, once we have fun, that’s the main thing.

Bye for now, Ellie
