Default Agility trial Jekyll and Hyde

Trip went to another agility trial today. I've decided to run him in preferred
so that I have an extra five seconds to try and get us around the course. This
was his first trial since the spring.
There weren't many dogs in front of him in standard so I had him out and near
the ring a little earlier than I usually do. He went nuts! He was screaming,
barking, pulling on the leash and in general acting like a nutcase. The course
started with a jump to the dog walk to the weaves to the table. He crashed
through the first jump to get to the dog walk. Flew over the dog walk, did hit
his contacts, blew past the weaves and kept jumping on and off the table,
wanting to do the rest of the course. The judge never even got to start her
count on the table. Finally I asked to be excused. The judge was kind enough
to comment on his drive:-)
In JWW he was an angel. We had a momentary bobble with a refusal that also
cost us a few seconds but he got his first ever jumpers leg! I was so tickled.
And he had second place as well.
I know for all you big time agility people a jumpers leg and second place is
probably a very common occurance, but I'm still grinning like a fool.
