Good day, bad day

Had a show this weekend in NJ. Saturday was awesome! We double Q'd! Took first in Jumpers and seventh in Standard. Then came Sunday. It was like a totally different dog. Trax broke his stay TWICE! I didn't realize though the second time until I saw the video. Both runs he went off course(because he released himself at the start line) and was just acting totally ridiculous. I just couldn't believe how rotten he was being. Hopefully he won't be like this in 2 weeks at our next show. I will be sternly re-inforcing his start line stays this week ;)

Nonetheless, I'm thrilled to say that we now have our second QQ. Just need 18 more for our MACH LOL! :lol:
 
Wow--a tale of two days! Nice job on Saturday, sounds like an awesome day! I think Trax will have his MACH in no time! :)

Naughty boy for breaking his stay. Is that something he does often?

And no video? :( Kidding!
 
No, he hasn't broken a stay in a year or so! Totally unexpected and then he did it both times. It was like someone took my Trax and replaced him with a bad dog! :lol:

And no, I didn't do video on Saturday which is probably why I QQ'd! LOL! On Sunday I did record it and he was terrible. Which means...I guess I shouldn't video my runs anymore :biggrin2:
 
Congrates on the double Q's. Don't you just hate it when you loose that dog somewhere over the course of a trail, or for that matter over the course of the day, makes you just want to pull your hair out sometimes :lol:.

That's why I stopped running Cosmo more the twice a day it's like throwing money away and even 2 runs a day is pushing the envelope for him LOL three is definately not happening. His best run of the day is always going to be the first one out of the box and then it's down hill from there on out usually.

Storm on the other hand is the wild child right out of the box and is going to take couple of run's into the day you finally have a dog you can work with, she' going to be the one that get every steeplechase run availible just so we can blow off some steam before the day gets going
 
Thanks! He's normally not nuts like that. As a matter of fact he hasn't been like that in over a year. I watched the videos though and he was standing up long before I ever got to finish my lead out, so we were doomed from the start.

We actually have a USDAA show next week with 14 runs that weekend, so we'll see if he gets better as the days go on or worse. Let's hope he gets better :biggrin2:

Shhh....don't tell, but I switched out Trax with Koji. Why do you think Koji was doing so well in JWW? It was Trax! :P

Congrats on your second QQ and I'm sure you'll get 18 more in no time.

I keep thinking...if I train hard this year, lose weight, me and Koji can be uber awesome by the time he's almost 6. He should mature by then, right?
