You'd think after putting a UD on a dog "we" could count to three, but noooooooooooooo....It isn't really one-two-three....more like one, then two and 1/2, then three and 1/2 (or else your feet aren't together when you stop). So here's the thing...count out loud when you do it so the judge can follow, lol! Kathy, Great advice. Thanks. I am just glad that trials don't have walls with mirrors. The training center we go to has an entire wall with mirrors, so that we can check ourselves when working. MR DEXTER likes the part when we go by the mirrors, so that he can admire himself. No issues with self esteem here.....LOL Ileana **************A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above. See yours in just 2 easy steps!
