At the BARK AKC trial in Hattiesburg, MS, this past weekend, Guy finished his Novice FAST Preferred title with a second place! Yea!

Open JWW, not so good...did everything well but the weaves...just blew me off the first day. Second day, the weaves were the second thing...he should have gotten that with no problem. Nope. Got the entrance, then went trotting right on by like they didn't exist. Grrrr.

I was determined, if we didn't do anything else and got the whistle, that we were going to get through them. Pulled him back, gave it a second go...he started in well, then slowed down and started sniffing. Cripes!

Pulled him back, used my low ugly voice and said "Guy. Weave"... Ooops! He looked up...Uh, oh...the Boss ain't happy....okay, he sails through them and the rest of the course is smooth as butter.

As soon as it's half way cooler, I'm taking those darned weaves all over the town and he's gonna do them!

Ms Prize did well in her first Novice JWW course... the handler could have been better , but she passed in spite of me and got her first leg and first place!

Second day, she had a tummy ache and didn't want to eat that morning, but we went. She had a melt down and tried to get in the bar setter lady's lap. Finally, came back to me, did HER weaves perfectly...then knocked a bar, wouldn't go thru the tunnel, so we asked to be excused. Ah, baby dogs....
