pammyd Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 Well Ben has only been training since Jan but his club had its spring show yesterday Although all the dogs were much more advanced than him I thought I would take him along as a training exercise I had a few secret goals for him 1. That he was calm enough to do his start line stay 2. Not to get eliminated 3. a clear round 4. possibly a rosette and of course most importantly that he had a good time As it was not full KC rules I opted to run him as a small dog as he is so young So there were 4 rounds Jumping, agility, cricular jumping and circular agility What can I say - my fab little boy The 1st 3 classes he got a clear round (1st 2 classes that got him 2 clear round rosettes) 1st 2 were a little slow - winners in less than 30s and we took 45s but the 3rd class he did in 25s - the winner was about 18s but we came about 5th!! out of 50 dogs!!!! (who had all had much more training than us) 4th class we had both been there for 4 hours and were tiered, he knocked a pole down and I ran him past 2 jumps - but we got back on course and didnt get eliminated - 3 faults but not bad Then the little boy got a full pack of chicken and lots and lots of sleep Not the best pic - I didnt even know that it was being taken but here is the 1st foto of Bens 1st jump in his 1st ever comp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tassie Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 And so another addict is born ..... Seriously - super good job from you and Ben. Looks like you both are really having fun with what you're doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
