Friday we went out to K9 to train. There was already a course set up that I tweaked a little to add more challenges at the end. I ran it with Boing! and Stamp and Celine ran it with Stamp, all with different handling and we got through it all three times, but with varying degrees of success.



I was not happy with the way I handled the last sequence of jumps, so I tried different options with varying degrees of success.



In the end I found that the way Celine handled it with Stamp gave the smoothest results.



Boing! is consistently weaving very fast now, but interestingly, her footwork is still a bit messy, I don't think she ever does 12 poles without either crossing her feet once or two-footing once.



Fleet worked very well, doing some really lovely weave entries as well as working on contacts



Friday night Zach and Joe came over for dinner. It was the first time I'd seen Zach since he came home from London. Glad to report that he's as mature as ever -





Joe and Celine enjoyed the whipped cream





And Jul did a dainty job of pouring the custard



Yesterday Celine and I spent the bulk of the day at Patty Valenti's house doing agility, talking dogs, and eating burgers from the grill. The kids and I went out to dinner, but none of us were energetic or inspired enough to go watch fireworks, so we went home and turned in early.
