Abbiestar Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Mi Murve, ankel is okay, little twingy still however due to other circumstances we will not be participating in tomorrows ET.... MISS JETT came into season last night, so we are ineligable to compete. Plan B, GSDCV at Altona end of June. Will have to send in my entries this afternoon. I didn't even bother taking her to the vet today, I knew she was due to come in but didn't think she'd come in this week....what can ya do! Abbiestar looks like you will be judging Jett and I *LOL* Okay, she is at peak fitness now, what regime should I have her on for the last 4 weeks and swimming is out because she is in season. One good thing, she will be in the best possible form for our Specialty Show in SA the week prior to the GSDCV ET Murve, good luck tomorrow, wishing you a sunny day and an easy ride! Hi trinaj, Sorry to hear about the ankle, but I guess the dog in season is more of an inconvenience! Glad you got your entry in for GSD. Look forward to seeing you then.

Abbiestar Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 TrinaJ :: Mother Nature works in mysterious ways was so looking forward riding with you & Jett I just hope we dont have that with Malika, might see how we go to have her ready for GSDCV ET, I wont push her so dont worry. Oh when do the GSDCV ET enteries close?? We do hope to have a nice day tomorrow, been listening to the weather closely thank you to all who have wished us goodluck. I think the butterflies are starting to set in, GSD entries close on June 3. The schedule is on the GSDCV website. Don't think about the butterflies. What could possibly go wrong ? Hope the weather is kind, and ground not too slushy. M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abbiestar Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Okay, she is at peak fitness now, what regime should I have her on for the last 4 weeks and swimming is out because she is in season. Just keep her active with regular shorter rides 6 - 8 k's. That should be sufficient to maintain her fitness. M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murve Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 I think my vet was in a good mood this morning he commented it's nice to see a well toned dog instead of overwieghts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murve Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Our rides have been about 3-4k's, Malika seems to be happy & still full of beans when we get back, after Orlando does his ET tomorrow I will then concertrate on our girl. Abbiestar do you think I could have her ready by GSDCV ET?????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abbiestar do you think I could have her ready by GSDCV ET?????? Yes, you could. As I said in a previous post, I have seen dogs turn up that have never been prepared for an ET, and never run alongside a bike still get through. I do not recommend this, but there is no reason why you should not pass with the level of training you are at. Just maintain what you are currently doing and build the distance slowly over the month and you should be fine. M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tassie Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Good luck for tomorrow murve. Hope the misty rain is just overnight, and clears nto a nice day tomorow. I finally had a chance to get the bike out this afternoon - 4 km with both dogs, then put Kirra back in the car, and did another 5 with Rory - so 10 all up for him. Varying speeds, and did some grass (for me). Averaged about 11 kph. Didn't want him too tired - opr me - have to groom bath and dry him now for a show tomorrow LOL.

OSoSwift Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 How soon before do you find out if you are balloted out???? I have rather a large organisaiton feat to pull off to get to mine and I wouldhate to put all that into place to ahve to cancel it all, but the worst bit would be (at this stage at least) having to wait 12 months to try again.
