A good night of trialling

Had a jumping and agility trial this evening and guess what - Tully won 3rd place in both!

Thats a big accomplishment for a little dog, as most of the competition are BCs and it is really hard for a small dog to place in the trials. Plus, the judge said he really liked my handling skills which is really nice complement seeing as I am pretty green at this.

Deska ran in jumping and although he went over time he actually did all the jumps and didnt run off like last time. Which, give how ill he was the last few days is fantastic. We practiced obedience commands before he ran and zenned out instead of revving up, I think that will be the trick with him.

And a little OT, but for the 2nd time this week he actually sat in front of me when a car took off from a car park, usually he would try to chase it, so woohoo, maybe he can be cured.
 
Whoo hoo! Third place against BCs is fantastic. (Sometimes I wonder if BCs are really dogs -- on the agility course some of them look like robots with fur. :wink2:) Congrats to you and Tully!

It sounds like Deska is making great progress, too -- on the agility course and the street. Solving his car chasing problem just might be the key to getting him to pay better attention in agility, or maybe it's the other way round. :lol:

I'm glad that the judge encouraged you by complimenting your handling skills. Isn't it great to be recognized by someone who knows what they're talking about?
