Well, I'm very pleased to announce that Rhys has earned his first leg in agility. By no means was it pretty, but he certainly has made progress since the last go round. In fact, thinking about it, he actually really did quite well. I'm very pleased with it. His speed was a little faster today. . .he was still over time but not nearly as much. And some of that was eaten up by admiring the photographer and also a stop to see what the heck all those people are staring at. ;) Course, we obviously have to work on weaves still. Let's see what he does in Standard. . .crossing my fingers on the A-frame. ;)
Oh Riley. . .why oh why, do you do this to me? ;) It's always something silly. We get through the tough part of the course only for her to blow something stupid. Yesterday in JWW, she missed the entrance to the weaves, while in Std. she got through a really tricky section, hit the weaves nicely only to run past the bloody A-frame. So far today, she got the tricky bits in Std. again only to miss the weave entrance. She gained speed after tunnel and hit the wrong side of the weave entrance. You fix one thing, she finds another way to NQ. :) She's been here almost 5 hours so I needed to wake her up a bit more before we went in to the ring than I did. Oh well. We'll give it another shot in JWW.
