a whirlwind

so havent updated in awhile.

showed both dogs this weekend in ASCA - 4 entries, 4 NQ's...

berlin didn't manage to hold a sit stay at all. she got one down stay. apparently these stays are important in obedience and nonnegotiable.

rah didn't manage to do a single go out, but came damn close otherwise to qualifying - in fact in the second run we had a 195 going into the go outs of doom.

trained last night and rah is finally allowed to retrieve again and he's in love but his mouth started bleeding after retrieving for about 20 minutes. need to whip open into shape really since weve got all star in a month... we need lots of work!
utility seemed broken.

agility was awesome though and berlin was a superstar. rah managed to bite me about 12 times including leaving two bad bruises on my arm.

the courses - berlin ran clean every time except once i needed to restart her offside weaves!!! so proud of her.

Good luck at All Star! A lot of people I train with are going. Maybe we'll make it there eventually.

Also, not sure if it's new or I'm just oblivious, but I love your blog's new background.

Oh well you tried. We are starting our Open Obedience debute this weekend. Am using it as a practice run for the National Specialty the end of the month.
