Ok I entered him, it is a draw so cross fingers it gets there in time and it gets chosen. Ember's is already there so I'll have to get both drawn seperately. Sometimes it fills sometimes not.
His leg issue is not an issue anymore I just need to make sure I stretch and warm him up properly. Certainly I would never go back to hard core training with him and I wouldn't do 16" again. But 12" is very doable. He is 15" so it isn't much of a leap. He still moves pretty good for 9.5 yrs. I think he'll have a blast. He is not sore this morning at all but he slept really well last night.
