We competed last Sunday at the Harrisburg Shetland Sheepdog Club's two trials in one day event. I entered both trials knowing that two may be too much for Davina, but I do love to support our local sheltie clubs. If we had to scratch on the 2nd trial, that would still be okay with me.

Davina took first place in Obedience Novice B in the first trial. The score was low, a 193.5 because she automatically finished and when the judge told me to finish well she was already in the finish position so I didn't say anything to her, that cost us another point, so we lost 6 points on the recall. That means Davina was working a 199.5 before the recall exercise. All that heeling on and off leash and she only lost .5!!!!!!! Dang that recall.

Apparently, we didn't have to scratch for the second trial as Davina took the High In Trial award in Obedience with a score of 198.5 and from the Novice B level!!! Obviously, we earned the 1st place ribbon in that class

This very young 2 yr old is taking me on a Magnificent Journey!

It was wonderful to meet other local SN members Rachel and Chris again. Congratulations on your placements!

I'll let Rachel post about her winnings! And, just so you know, her Ms. Evil did wonderful in both rings, Rally and Obedience.

Wow... that's impressive!!!

It's neat to hear about SN members meeting in real life!!... and by the looks of your latest pup's kennel name, I see you have a connection to another one of our esteemed members :biggrin2:
 
Absolutely fabulous scores, what an awesome job!

Now that you have HIT in Novice B are you moving up to Open at your next trial?

Although we have 60 days from the date Davina earned the HIT before I'm required to move her into Open, I think we're going to stay in Novice B for one or two more trials. Our next trial closed prior to her winning the HIT and although I could move her up, I want to trial under the Novice B judge.
