The kids and I had a PERFECT weekend of CPE agility this past weekend!

Bryce – 8 runs, 8 Q’s (level 5)
Jayda – 10 runs, 10 Q’s (levels 4 and 5)

Definitely one for the record books :)! Weather (although it was indoors) was perfect too – sunny and warm. AND, for a change, nobody messed with my crate setup so I didn’t have to stack poor Jayda on top of someone else’s dog this time. That made us both very happy – she hates being in the upper bunk and it’s no fun constantly having to lift my HEAVIEST dog in/out of her crate!

Bryce ran well and seemed to be feeling pretty good, but it looked like he had 3 “good” runs in him each day – he was really slow by the 4th. He was sleeping a little between runs, but he never really rests enough when he’s crated indoors. I had ambitiously entered him in 10 runs and ended up scratching him from 2. Not so bad. He’ll probably sleep most of today.

Bryce’s C-ATCH countdown is now:

6 Q’s in Standard
2 Q’s in Jumpers
2 Q’s in Wildcard
2 Q’s in Jackpot
0 Q’s in Colors, Snooker and Fullhouse!

I was very pleased with Jayda – she just recently completed level 3 (2 weeks ago – her bad Mommy forgot to blog about it!)

Now we need to find more trials!!

Monday morning = not so perfect. I was planning to sleep in on this 2nd day of Daylight Savings Time, but a passing thunderstorm at 5:15 AM (followed by 3 dogs who were certain that was the cue to get up, go out and have breakfast) put the kibosh on that.

Maybe I’ll post some of the details and some obligatory pictures later, when I’m awake!

Speaking of great weekends, a shout out to my friend Bernadette Bay and the kids’ cousin Zen (Ag Ch Obay Truly Balanced) for finishing 2nd at Crufts in the Medium Agility Dog Championship on Sunday! They’ve both been away from agility for a while and Zen just recently whelped a litter – WELCOME BACK :)!!!
