2011 USDAA Nationals

Geez another thread I missed not paying attention, Sounds like a great time Ashley. Its always an eye opener to go to a big event like this even as a spectator. I know when I hit the regionals & the nationals here this year, it was like OMG am I actually gonna have to get to this level to be compeditive wow. But I did learn a ton just watching them perform live and trying to Qual for the national team, it's certainly not the same as watching it on TV. I have run in some trials with a couple of our national team members, but usually they are there as singles, and you know that thier dogs are awesome and a real treat to watch, but when you get a few hundred dogs of that level all in the same place & all going Back to back it really is quite amazing.

Probably one of the best things that I took away from attending these 2 events this year, is that even that best dogs & handlers out there make mistakes , or can have a bad or off day , and when you do just accept it and move on, theres always tomorrow. As compeditive as it was out there I didn't see one poor sport in the lot, some dissapointment yes but that's to be expected.
 
I've seen those dog beds, I always wonder if Koji would eat it or not. lol. Eh, he's got enough toys and beds and stuff. So, you bought 4 things? Now that's self-control.

Email me the vid link please. :) I'd love to see them.

It isn't a bed that I would leave out around the house (Lexi says "nom nom nom"), but for travel it's perfect.

Oh no, that's not what I meant. lol. I've seen people use them at trials. I'd be afraid to leave Koji alone with it. hahaha. Honestly, he may not eat it, but it looks so fluffy and nice to eat. ;)
