2018 was a really fantastic year for us. We tried a lot of new things, did a lot of hiking, filled the year with as many bird-related activities we could, and spent a lot of time together. Some of my favorite memories from the year were:
Blitz swimming for the first time
Celebrating her 1st birthday
Spending countless hours hiking and swimming with our best friends
Dock diving for the first time
All of the days spent working birds
Testing in NA for the first time
Earning a Prize 1 for NA
Lure coursing for the first time
Finding and pointing our first wild bird
Hiking in the Blue Ridge Mountains
It really was such a fantastic year, completely exceeding our expectations. I am looking forward to a lot of really great things in 2019, too! Some things I would love to accomplish are:
Working on steadiness on birds
Hunting more wild birds
Improving my shooting skills so many I can actually bring something home
Getting her last two scores for her Dock Senior title
Trying a Coursing Ability Test
Start canicross and eventually bikjoring
I know 2019 has a lot of exciting things in store for us, I can't wait!
What are some of your 2019 plans?
