I've got new brags from last weekends trial.
To start out it was one long weekend... got up at around 6 which ended up pushing 6:45. Mom wasn't real happy, but I was zonked from the previous days spent running Agility. But you know what I'm a teen (so NOT really a morning person), but I got up as early as I did because I LOVE Agility and my dogs! And bedtime... well that was around 11... because I was tired, but there was WAY too much to do to go to bed early.
So lets get to the brags...They are really something to brag about!
Lets start with our favorite....AGILITY....
Friday (July 8, 2011) -
Excellent Jumpers- Dingo and I qualified and received a perfect score (100 of 100) and placed 1st! We had a really good time too...Our time was 41.81 sec (Yards:158)
Excellent Standard- Dingo and I qualified and received a really good score (94 of 100- it was a time fault....we went over less than 2 secs) and placed 1st again! Our time was really good. We ran a little over, but thats okay unless you are 5 secs over course time (then you don't qualify). Our time was 65.50 sec (Yards:180)
We received our first Excellent Jumpers and Standard Legs!!!!
Saturday (July 9, 2011)-
Dingo and I did really well, but we didn't qualify. Since we are in Excellent, if you do one thing wrong you don't qualify! I was really proud of Dingo though.
Excellent Jumpers-
Everything went well.... until and after the weave poles.... Dingo decided to take the jump instead of the weaves, but hey if I were him I probably would too!
Excellent Standard-
Everything went pretty well in this class too until and after the A-frame! Dingo decided to walk around the A-frame. And it was RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM!!! So I don't know what he was doing. Some of the other dogs were doing the same thing though. We think it is because the whole arena was white until this one area (right at the entrance up the A-frame) and it was this really bright color, so we think that was throwing them off! Everything else went really well and we had a great time!!!!
Sunday (July 10, 2011)
We didn't qualify this day either, but thats okay. We just had a good time and enjoyed ourselves I was really proud of his runs.... well until Jumpers (Last run of the weekend... the poor little guy was pooped out! Especially since he had showed in Rally too!)
Excellent Jumpers-
Dingo didn't do so well... but I do give him that it was the end of a very stressful weekend... I was very tired and stressed also! Dingo decided to watch the leash runner take his leash across the field to the other end of the field (He did it in the middle of the weaves!!!) Then he kept watching the crowd in the middle of us running (he would just stop and watch them!).
Excellent Standard-
In Standard, the same exact thing happened as Yesterday, but it was the Dog Walk. It was sitting exactly where the A-frame was the day before, but a bunch of dogs did the same thing like Dingo (walk around it)... So I don't know what was going on.
So now lets get to what Dingo is okay with and does mostly because I want him to...RALLY...
Dingo and I only participated in Rally on Saturday. We are trying for our RAE. You have to qualify in the same day, same trial twice to get a leg (Rally Excellent and Rally Advanced- the hardest classes). You have to have to have 10 legs! We now have 5 legs!!!!
Rally Excellent (The highest level)-
Dingo and I did perfect! We qualified and received a score of 100 of 100 and a 1st place (We beat my cousin Aaron- it's a joke because he does really well with his dogs and always gets 1st and Dingo and I can finally beat him).
Rally Advanced (2nd to highest level)-
Dingo and I did good, but not as good as Rally Excellent. Dingo and I qualified and received a score of 97 of 100! We didn't place, but that's okay!
The weekend went really well! I was really proud of Dingo and I had a really good time! I don't care that we didn't qualify a few times! This is all for fun.
This is a picture of Dingo running Agility Excellent Jumpers the weekend!
