Hi List, Decided to take a break from the show ring today and entered 2 of my furkids in Obedience and Rally. The location was on a busy horse facility and the Novice ring was set up about 15' from the riding arena. Was looking like a bad day with only a 2' split rail fence between the dogs and the horses. Charm got in the ring and things were going ok. Then some crazy guy starts galloping his horse right outside out ring during the heel free. Yikes! I was waiting for her to bolt, but she stayed with me. He did it again during the recall. Good girl, never broke eye contact with me. Horse people, this was galloping not a nice easy lope. I was so proud of her. But the brag is for my boy Gunther. He got a perfect score in Rally! There were 57 entries and 9 dogs with perfect scores. We were still in the ribbons with a 4th. Gunther is sort of a rescue and has always had confidence issues so this was a big thing for him. He also got High scoring dog with an ILP. What a fun day!
