Rumor's 1st QQ... kinda...

It has been quite a while since we actually trained agility (at least, that's how it feels)... Rumor did great this weekend!

Saturday:
Rumor got his 1st ExcA JWW Q and he was a very good boy during the run. He had great weaves and he even would have placed 2nd in the ExcB division, so I was pleased with that. The little man also Qd in ExcB Std! I couldn't believe it... he got 2nd in that class. I know it isn't a 'real' QQ, but he at least Qd 2x in the same day so I know we can do it... now, just gotta get INTO B for JWW

Went out to a fantastic sushi dinner at Swordfish with Whitney, Mary, Polly, Liz and Whit's friend Jennifer... we had a blast! It was a wonderful Bday dinner :)

Sunday:
Rumor had another really nice JWW run. He knocked the double on the line out, but the rest of the run was clean... a bit loopy/wide in spots, but overall I was still very proud of him. Our Std run was a bit more baby-like in a couple parts... Crazy boy started out by doing a couple extra tunnels, but he had a few very nice parts. I was thrilled when I faded quite a bit from the dogwalk to serpentine a jump into the weaves... good boy Rumz!

I'm really looking forward to our trial this coming weekend in Davenport, IA. I'm really hoping to get at least 1 (maybe 2) more JWW Qs and get him into B... starting in Feb, we do 24" for a couple trial and then 26" until Louisville... can't wait for the ISC classes!!!
