Erie Kennel Club AKC Agility Trial
Some AWESOME courses from judge Laura Kuterbach (whom we trial with regularly too). Flowy, fast, fun. Loved the courses! I hurt my knee during the previous week and I could really feel I wasn’t running like myself, but my awesome pups worked beautifully anyway! Zhora earned a Standard Q both days, I stupidly pulled up before the last jump (the triple) in Jumpers today and made her knock the bar. She ran her fastest times to date again today (she is speeding up every weekend just now!), in Jumpers running 4.88 yards per second, and in Standard today she earned a fourth place and ran 3.85 yards per second for 23 points, her highest yet! Nina laid down her fastest JWW time yet (5.26 yards per second) in a beautiful one-bar-wonder run today, and qualified in Standard for a second place and 31 points, her other runs were gorgeous JOLT (Just One Little Thing) runs. We have two weekends off now, well earned!
