Stadi Games

Stadi Games is one of my favourite agility trials. I've participated many times with Neeo, and also worked there as our club HAU is one of the organizers. The atmosphere is very special. I remember how last year it was very hot, and I tried to hide in the share with Neeo before entering the ring. I had a great feeling before the run, and our run was fantastic. Pure agility euphoria! This year I will miss Stadi Games, but hopefully next year I can be there again. And perhaps trialing with Kumma the year after?

Today we had a lovely walk in the woods. My son was leading the team, the three hurricanes following him, and I tried to keep up the pace. Kumma is often staying in front of Hoppu and Neeo, stopping and staring there, I suppose it's combination of playing and herding. Hoppu and Neeo have solved "the problem" by accelerating, and running past Kumma with full speed. It is fun to see how behaviours of a sheepdog and two sighthounds are so different, and how they are trying to understand each other.

Neeo and Kumma are playing together daily. Kumma is the one initiating the play, and could continue forever. The noisy play is including running and wrestling, and it lasts until Neeo loses his nerves, and shows Kumma his place. Hoppu the policeman is trying to keep the misbehaving kids in order by barking. It hasn't been silent in our family earlier, but now we have even more action... Well, it was expected. Fortunately it is summertime, and the garden offers more action space. I've only lost a couple of tulips so far :)
