Oh Yeah, You Blend

Thanks to weather and the NYS Thruway being closed because of it, we only made it to Edinboro for one day of this weekend’s trial, leaving at 5 AM today. Well, it was worth the drive! Zhora earned her first AX (Excellent Standard) leg with a great run where she saved her weave poles after a wonky entry because she was headed to another piece of equipment, she ALMOST got her first MXJ (Master Jumpers) leg, but knocked a bar after looking to see what some spectators were doing. Nina tried to give me a heart attack by doing the dogwalk on three legs (I HATE dogwalk entries that are a hard turn like this was, I think it’s very unsafe), and was so insane about being back to agility after a month off that she knocked FOUR BARS in Jumpers. She redeemed herself somewhat by winning Time 2 Beat, but wow…she scared me in Standard! Judge Barbara Bounds was very nice, and came up to me to ask if I knew Krista Hill who also has Vallhunds!

Zhora Master Jumpers (NQ but a very nice run):

Nina Time 2 Beat (Q and 10 points for winning the class, you can see how wired she was!):

Nina Master Standard (heart attack-inducing dogwalk, I should have pushed more to the wall and then turned):

Zhora Excellent Standard (AX leg #1!):
