Met a real live RPDer (NADAC)
Well we went NADACing this weekend.
Meet the second person from this news groups I have seen in real-life. The weather was *lovely* and it was a one ring trial. Meet Sarah and her dogs - second real live RPDer! I hadn't done Nadac in ages and I do enjoy it. I had forgotten how long the opening gambles are (GASP, GASP, GASP).. I really will miss it though - so nice to be able to work what you need. The contacts were well-surfaced, but I really should have practiced with the lower A-frame (Opps!). The bad beezer puppies got a ton of socialization (Rum the loud girl and Lucky the flirty boy). They were a lot of nice dogs they coul play with and I was very happy with their focus when I was asking them for a behavior. They just were completely unconcerend about anything in their environment. If I keep dragging them to trials I really want to avoid some of the me versus environment competeting for Kizzi's attention. They are good little puppies, except for the occasional screaming. -- Melissa S. Frye Skyrocket cockers www.mfrye.com/skyrocket/ |

The weather was *lovely* and it was a one ring trial. Couldn't have had better agility weather.. though my dogs liked cloudy Sunday better than sunny Saturday. CIA is always a fun trial... nice bunch of people, and as you could probably tell from the silliness & I-dare-you's in some of the walkthroughs, many of us know each other very well. Meet Sarah and her dogs - second real live RPDer! You make my third... met Melanie at a NADAC trial last year, Cate several times at one of the parks where I run my dogs. I actually recognized Dice first; saw a little bitty Cocker flying around the ring, thought "that must be Dice!" and a split second later heard you say "Dice!" :-D After that, I was watching for the other two; easy to do, 'cos I was leash running that class. I hadn't done Nadac in ages and I do enjoy it. I had forgotten how long the opening gambles are (GASP, GASP, GASP).. Argh. No kidding, at least when you run little dogs.. I ran out of obstacles to do with Rocsi on Sunday. Of course, she was in super-speed mode most of the weekend anyhoo; I'm still stunned by the Open Regular run where she came in almost 27 seconds under course time. Scary! The bad beezer puppies got a ton of socialization (Rum the loud girl and Lucky the flirty boy). Them are some SERIOUSLY cute Beezer buppies! And I was most impressed with Rum's focus- I can easily see why she's the keeper. |
