Oh Yeah, You Blend

This was the last qualifying weekend for the AKC Agility Invitational, so the Gordon Setter Club cleverly invited two judges with wonderful courses and generous wheels to their trial, and ended up with a full trial (Saturday and Sunday anyway), which is unusual these days! We were in North Olmsted, Ohio.

Judges Christie Bowers and Dan Faulkner set some lovely, flowy, fast courses for us, and the dogs had a blast.

Nina got double Q #10 on Friday, Zhora had a beautiful standard Q Saturday but then a HUGE crack of thunder and heavy, loud rain started just as we entered the ring for Jumpers, and that put the kibosh on a double Q. She ran beautifully all weekend, but couldn’t pull off another Q.

Nina Friday Standard (3rd place, 32 points (against some of the fastest 8″ dogs in the country!) and part 1 of QQ#10!):

Nina Friday Jumpers (16 points for part 2 of QQ#10!):

Zhora Saturday Standard (20 points, almost her best points to date, her best ever is 21):

Nina Sunday Jumpers (gorgeous run with a heartbreaker last bar down for an NQ!):

Zhora Sunday Jumpers (not a Q but a really nice run):
