We're committed now...

[SunChaser]

It's done. There is no turning back now... Lacey and I have paid our entry fee and filled out the forms and are now going to the April 26 AKC obedience show at Imperial Polk Obedience club. We will be competing in rally novice A. I'm going to be shaking all the way through it but little Lacey is cool and collected. She knows her commands and watches me with an intensity that I don't have with any of my other dogs... If anyone messes up it'll be ME!

Keep your fingers crossed that I don't fall on my face!

You'll be fine! Remember, the judges want you to succeed. Keep a loose lease and remember to praise Lacey, no matter what she does!

 

[SheltieLuver]

You'll be addicted now too!

I'm sure you will be fine... the trick I use during conformation showing... when you get in the ring tune everybody out. It is just you, the dog and the inside of the ring. It honestly isn't that hard to do. You will do great! Remember make it fun for you and the dog no matter what.

Bretahe and enjoy, show off what your great dog can do! Hope you have a good course and you enjoy the day. Any friends going to be there? Are you going to video? Having that as a keepsake could be fun.
