Some brags

Harry (Newley x Romy) made his rally debut this weekend and I was very proud of him. He got a 97 on Saturday and a 98 and 4th place on Sunday. I had many nice compliments on how well he worked.

I'd also like to brag for my good friend Jackie Stilwell. She finished a CDX on Nicky (Newley X Romy) and got a 2nd UD leg on Katey (Jamie x Mackie) this weekend.

Run Throughs

Thursday morning I took Harry (who is preparing for his novice rally debut) and Nori to run throughs at Catoctin Kennel Club. Nori did a nice open run through and Harry did a nice rally run through. I have discovered that a dog retrieving in the ring next to him is very distracting so we worked on that a little at home. Last night I took them to run throughs in Fredericksburg and he was less distracted about the dog working in the next ring. Nori did well.

Weekend

I spent my weekend working at the PVBSC and Warrenton Kennel Club, my all breed club, agility trials. I didn't run a dog because I worried it could be too hot to compete outdoors. However, we had lovely weather and the trial ran pretty smoothly. I scribed I don't know how many classes and helped build a lot of courses. I was pretty beat by the end of the weekend.

New Title

Nori finished her XF title at the SMKC trial 8/27 with a 2nd place. That makes 3 new titles for her this year (MXJ, AX, XF). Jamie finished his OF in July.
