AAC trial Oct. 30, 2009

Happy Halloween!

We had a good trial yesterday, just did two Masters Standard. I'll write very quick descriptions:

Masters Standard
Missed the A-frame contact again, oh well -- she had more speed than usual on the whole AF, and really drove onto it. had one off-course to a tunnel (but then again, a lot of dogs had off-courses to tunnels in this course). Fun course and I used a lot of rear crosses! Nice teeter too!

Masters Standard
Mika loved the beginning of this course. Three jumps taken in a straight line, then a slight turn onto the teeter. She zoomed over the first three jumps. Missed DW contact.

  1. Cool, can't wait to see the video! Bummer about the couple of 5-fault runs recently, but always fun to see Mika having such a great time, especially considering where she was at a few years ago.

    Walter's weave-popping issue means his Standard Qs are few and far between, but slowly but surely he's picked up a few along the way. As long as we're having fun along the journey, right! :)

  2. Thanks Lisa, I have to admit that I'm more happy when Mika runs her happiest and fastest than when she does "perfect" contacts. We're still having a blast every run, whether or not it was a Q or NQ! :) It's so much more fun running her when she's running hard.
