We went to a Rally O trial this morning. Unlike agility trials where we have a few events and hence get into pretty quickly, in rally it is just the one event so there is a bit of waiting…
So I got comfy…
Then decided mum would make a good pillow…
Until it was finally our go.
Lined up beautifully and mum had her fingers crossed….
Hmmm 2nd station in is a jump. That looks fun. Ignore 1st station and head for jump (I’m an agility dog after all). Mum convinced me to turn around before the jump (something about a DQ if I did the jump before the 1st station) but got distracted on the way back to mum by the offset figure of 8 thingy which had food but decided it was best to go back to mum… Mum said ‘retry’ to that 1st station and off we went…
And woohoo…. 1st place!
So here is me and my cool ribbon (and a pillow they gave to mum which I might snaffle).
Bodhi – you just keep bring in the good don’t you? Well done on the prize!
It almost went horribly wrong with a jump and food all in close proximity at the start but thankfully got it together and off we went…. Together. Looks like you had a fun morning too.
Yes we did – a friend of mine who has 3 black labs was running and a couple of others. Easy to watch as it went right through centennial:)
Wow you guys are tireless at this! Well done indeed 🙂
Thanks Donna. Coming up to the end of the season but this week will be a big one. We have another couple of Rally trials this week so hopefully this time next week we have an RA title… Pretty cool. Paws crossed.
Good luck!! 🙂
