Only 2 years!

Well, it only took almost 2 years but we finally did it.  Today we ran a whole open Standard course and Qed!!  And it was awesome!!

And just in case you havent been following my blog, Miley has been stressing about the table and not getting on.

Yesterday wasnt a good day in my attitude department.  I messed up FAST.  And we messed up her JWW.  I was just really down.  I stayed afterwards for the B-match. I had signed up for 2 standard courses and Time to Beat .  The first time in standard, I did 4 obstacles to the table, then ran out and rewarded. The next time, I 5 obstacles to the table and then did 7 more obstacles and then rewarded.  Both times she did great!!  We did pretty good in Time to Beat.

Except we dropped bar 16 and 17. I think it was my fault. I think I pulled , more like jerked, quickly to keep her off that off course.  Man, I need to trust my dog and my training and stop worrying about off courses.

Here is JWW from Sun.  I think Ive run Exc JWW 30 times now with no Q's. I guess this is going to take 2 years too. LOL

 So I planned to FC after the weaves and then FC after 15 to keep her out of the tunnel. (Lots of dogs went off course into the tunnel)  Plus you see the line by the tunnel. Thats the run out line. If your dog went pass there, NQ.  LOL So we were doing well until I couldnt get out of my cross fast enough and I was behind. The it was like a train wreck. I could see it happening and couldnt stop it. Ugh! Then my dog stressed and zoomed around the ring.



Just an FYI. Someone got whistled out of the ring for saying "Crap".   It wasnt in excellent.  I  didnt see it but I hear it also had to do with the tone of her voice too.  
I didnt stay for FAST.  I had a bad headache all morning and by the time I got back to the condo, I had a migraine.  It was a rough drive home. ( I have migraine medication and it worked. It just makes me tired)
