In class yesterday we ran the standard course from the AKC Nationals ISC Tournament.

I just wanted to post this because I am so proud Olga of the way that Phoenix is doing her pinwheels and taking turns.  She is no longer shooting off in the direction she is going and slamming her shoulders into the ground to turn.  Her time was 32.06 with a hold on the contacts on both the aframe and the dw.  When I ran it for speed - quick release and driving hard, she knocked 3 bars but her time was 30.30 seconds.  Not bad!

I ran that course at the Nationals and it was TOUGH. The ending left no choice but to rear cross a fast dog, and the dogwalk/tunnel NQ'd TONS of dogs... NICE JOB!

Thanks Katie.  BTW, tell us how you did.  Would love to hear about it.  Did you have Jeep or your B.C. - can't remember his/her name..

Wendy,

I am proud of you and Phoenix too! What a noticeable change indeed! Way to way, girls! You two are becoming a very good team.

Now, let's see if we can start gradually working on driving harder. Gradually is the key word here..

Olga.
