Spring Shows, working for those USDAA Q's to send us back to the sunny nationals in AZ......... |
|
We started the year out right with Kells and a Steeplechase Qualifier in Corvallis.
We went to Dixon and ran in howling gales, mud and sun. Note the mud on the dogs and the A frame. The club brought in loads of straw and shavings!!
Kells was wonder girl and came home with Team Qualifier, Grand prix and Steeplechase! Leo went clean except for handler stupidity in Grand Prix!
My Northwest cup Winners. Leo went 5 for 5, four standard, won Gamblers and Grandprix Q ! Kells went Grandprix and four standards clean. Q off to Bend next!
BAD puts on a great show in BEND, Small, the perfect size. We loved camping in the field at the horse farm, in the evening we had a gaggle of border collies and shelties running around playing. Despite my cold Leo - standard Q and second, Grand prix third and Steeplechase Q Kells- Standard Q, Grandprix 4th and Steeplechase Q (Barb Davis brought four of her dogs, oh my and you should see Audrey run these days!)
Then we stopped at the Metrolius river for a romp, I just love that area
Stay tuned for the regional in two weeks, Leo just needs team, am I brave enough to make our reservations for AZ?
USDAA Regional at Canby a success!! Leo went clean and fast every team run. (Team # 7) Kells went clean and fast every team run too. (Team number 11) ( and I made reservations in Scottsdale last week!) (Lots of great runs and some communication breakdown, so off to a bit more practice)
