We took one starters team today made up on Skye, Barney who has had to go back to starters after his big crash in Kent, Maddie, Chico and Campbell as reserve. Skye was a star and didn't make one mistake although slowed towards the end. Barney just ran out once but that was probably the handlers fault and my 3 well they were just naughty! Maddie did her usual thing of going to the box and lying down, Chico started well but got bored quite quickly and Campbell was like a rocket for a few legs then kept slowing down to have a nose in the other lane! Its very frustrating having 3 dogs who are very very hard work and then Cai who is a star and lives for flyball. We did well though with the dogs we had available and finished 2nd with a very slow time of 27. something seconds! Not our usual standard but we all had fun and cant wait for next weekend.
Cai did the singles and was back on top form today. I had to run him from 53 feet as anything closer and he got a false start. He did 3 runs over 7" getting 3.955, 3.971 & 3.976 to finish 1st. I then asked to run him over 14" to see how much the higher jumps slowed him down and he did 4.247, 4.143 & 4.144 so not a huge difference. These times would have also put him in 1st even with all the other dogs running over 7" so im very proud of my boy today.
