Today we had our first of two days of the Dog Gone Fun agility trial. Shimmer was only entered in Starters Standard and Masters Gamblers. Sadly we had to check in early and our runs had 7 hours in between, but I'm just happy to have gotten to run with my best girl again. Starters Standard went well and her attempt at the teeter was absolutely amazing. She only had the tiniest bit of a fly-off. Later on in the course there was a dogwalk discrimination in which she had to pick the dogwalk which she brilliantly did! And we finished strong with lots of confidence! I was so very proud of my Shimmy. Masters Gamblers was a great gamble and she did a fantastic job in the opening and got her weave poles, but Mommy didn't push out far enough on jump 4 to have her commit to it. She still back jumped it and finished with the last jump. She had a good time and gave me her all and I was so very happy with that. Lots of good things today that made me smile. I can't wait for tomorrow. We'll be running Masters Jumpers, Starters Standard, and Advanced Snooker (such variety I know)! We're going to shoot for another good teeter performance tomorrow and that's the goal we'll keep in mind! On another great note, we had Chinese food for dinner and it was amazingly yummy. My fortune tonight? "A good laugh and a good cry both cleanse the mind." So, very true and good to remember. Aside from that there's nothing new or exciting to report. Simply put, I am quite tired and will most likely head off to bed soon. With that I'll end with the quote of the day and hope everyone has an awesome day tomorrow filled with lots of fun!
