' Duffy and I had a great, sopping wet, weekend of Agility in Burnaby, BC.Duff earned four more Q's and moved into Advanced Gamblers on the second day. We'll never forget our first advanced run. It was pouring rain, Duffy ran a beautiful course but the gamble was a serpentine and I wasn't sure we were up for it. He took the first jump, then made a beautiful turn into the second just as a big gust of wind blew the whole thing over.So two jumps from the end and we had to re-run the course. He did even better in the opening the second time, then just as we were approaching the gamble the heavens opened and it started to hail. Duffy looked at the sky and then looked a me as if to say "what the heck is this stuff!!" But with lots of encouragement he made all three jumps, got his first advanced Q and a big cheer from the spectators for a fantastic effort.I sure do love working with this dog, he gives it his all no matter what, and enjoys every minute of it!

' Hope (Caitland's Walking With Faith) and I had a pretty good weekend too. We went to our first AAC agility trial and qualified in 4 out of 6 runs. Hope finished her Starters Gamblers with 2 first place finishes. She also Q'd in 2 out of 3 starters standard runs, both with class placements. Her jumpers run was lovely, other than one refusal. Considering we were running in a wicked thunderstorm, I was pretty happy with her. She was distracted by a loud boom of thunder and missed one jump. '
