We had a great agility trial!

Last weekend we had our first agility trial of the season. Mason had already gotten his novice titles last fall but, I held him back in novice because he tended to "zoom" a bit in trials. On the first day he proved to me that he was now ready to move up with a novice standard and novice jumpers leg...both first places! I moved him up to open and he did it again, an open standard and open jumpers leg...again, both first places!

Whit got her 9th masters jumping leg so now she only needs one more for that title.

Gent got his second agility excellent leg, a first place! He actually would have gotten another leg but I screwed up.....told him to "out, jump, chute" on a course. Whit knows what that means perfectly but Gent just stopped and looked at me! :D I think I'm gonna pass Gent over to a friend to handle once he's finished his excellent titles. Running three dogs at the same trial is just too much for me.

Congrats! My Rottie will never compete in agility, she can't make the jumps but she does know all of the eqipment. I am also lucky enough to have some of my own equipment. The other dog in ou house, the family dog Willow will hopefull be competing soon! Willow is a 1 1/2 yr. old Bernese Mountain Dog, so we hope she will be able to cmopete by summer.

Congratulations Nancy! You all did indeed have a great weekend! I've only run 2 dogs at a time in trials, I cannot imagine running 3! Sure the course stays the same but the dog and the fine tune adjustment needs change with each. I am truly impressed, you all deserve a big treat!
