Agility Weekend

Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving.

After over-eating on Thursday and Friday, we headed out to an agility trial for the rest of the weekend.  Moon & Izzy were entered in an AKC trial.  Moon had some nice parts to his runs, but messed up the weave poles, so no qualifying runs for him.  Izzy had a fabulous weekend.  She qualified all 4 of her runs to earn 2 double Q's and a bunch of points toward her Mach title.  On Sunday, I was stunned when we got to the start line and she actually sat while I led out one obstacle.  In class she always does this great, but when we go to a trial, she forgets how to wait and makes he run for it.  She also sat on the table when I told her to - again, she does this at class, but never at a trial.  I almost keeled over with delight.  In my mind, those 2 things alone made for a successful day, but in addition, she also nailed her weave poles (another area we mess up in trials), and she ran the course clean.  I think I was the happiest person at the trial.
