So much fun in Michigan...

This was a really great weekend in Michigan... so much to do, so little time. At least the weather cooperated!

The boys and I had an AKC Agility trial in Buchanan, MI this weekend. It was outdoors so I knew Dylan wouldn't be all that thrilled, but I wanted a small trial with FAST (just to have an extra class) for the baby dog. Kelly and Mary were there too so we hung out most of the time and had a blast. Barb was there and Chris even made the trip to come hang over his 1 weekend off.

Dylan had some "no effort" runs and a couple pretty nice runs... I never expect too much from him outside when it's warm. As long as he is a happy boy and enjoys being there, that's all I ask of him. I was happy we did have a nice set of weaves in Std even with all the distracting smells out there .

I was very pleased with Rumor for the weekend. He had some really nice parts to every one of his runs. His stays were (for the most part) very good... his contacts were nice... he had some lovely weaves and I think he was getting the hang of things a bit more. No complaints from me... *I* could have handled a few areas better... but he was a very good pup.

The most fun part of the weekend was going to hang out at Colby's house in New Buffalo, MI. Saturday, we had 9 dogs playing on the beach! Everyone was getting along and when Dylan was bothing anyone too much... they politely told him to stop. Chris did a great job of tiring all the dogs out in the water. We all had a great time! Topped the evening off with a dinner at The Stray Dog. Sunday, Kelly and I took the "big dogs" back to the beach and then to an early dinner at Redamak's.

One of the most fun trial weekends I can remember... it really felt like a vacation :)
