Easter Celebration Agility Show

Well a mixed weekend for Campbell. Only two runs on Saturday. Grade 1 - 3 Agility was first and he managed a nice clear but felt very slow and didn't make the placings. Then grade 1 - 3 Jumping which had and odd angle into the weaves which i was worried about and Campbell missed it but flew round the rest to end up with 5 faults.

Today didn't go much better. We had grade 1 - 2 jumping first which again had a slightly odd angle weave which i was worrying about and Campbell missed the weaves totally even with the circle he finished on a decent time so i was a bit gutted to have 5 faults. Next was the grade 1 - 2 helter skelter which was a super fast circular course that i didn't think would be a problem but guessed we would be quite slow. Well Campbell took off faster than i expected and even go us out if trouble when i went to pull him off the right jump! we finished clear to end up 19th (out of 221 dogs) so I'm very pleased as he is not a fast dog to even get a place on a course like this is a miracle. Last we had grade 1 jumping which was tire weave to start. Having missed quite a few weaves now i really was getting stressed and i wasn't surprised when we didn't get the weaves... i was surprised though when Campbell just went flying past heading for the long jump. I get the feeling he knew they were there but has decided weaves are not much fun anymore! The rest was nice so we just finished on 5 faults.
