At Last!

I am pleased to say that after failing our silver award exam in the summer, Merlin and I passed our exam this evening!  It was a bit nerve wracking as an external examiner comes to the dog training class to assess us, but Merlin was a good boy and did all his exercises very well - and even gave the examiner a little kiss on the cheek as she was inspecting him (now that was taking things a bit far I thought!).  We'll go back to training classes in January and start to work towards our gold award.  

Many thanks for all you kind comments on last night's blip - you are all so wonderful and I appreciate the time and thought you take to comment very much. Hoping your day has gone well.
