Next, we were back in Great Falls for three trials. Here is our camp for the weekend!
On Friday, LK helped Dodger win First in Utility B for two more points.
Saturday, Lucky Kitty helped Dodger to be the only one to qualify, for First and four more points!
On Sunday, Dodger decided he didn't want to do the signal drop, so we got an early start home - and ran into a dust storm.
Back in Montana, this time in Helena, where Lucky Kitty helped Proxy win a four point major!
Unfortunately, Dodger was stuck in 3rd all weekend, which of course was one placement out of the points - sigh.
EXCEPT SUNDAY!! Finally we put it together and won Utility for 6 nice points - makes the drive home soooo much
better!
And we have to wait until about 3 pm before we can show in breed too. :-(
Rick, I and all the mutts went up to the Sacramento area, mostly for Iris's 50th birthday party, but also to do a couple of shows and trials. The first day, Rick handled Proxy to 1 more point, and the second day Dodger managed a Fourth in Utility in heavy competition. But Lucky Kitty's biggest job that weekend was to keep Kitty safe, alone in the house while we were gone! ;-)
The next trip was to the middle of nowhere Nevada (i.e. Pahrump) where on the first day Lucky Kitty helped Dodger
win Utilty for 2 more points
and Proxy win Novice B for her first CD leg and High in Trial!
The next day, Dodger managed to flunk both Utility and Open (sigh) but Proxy won Novice B again for her second CD leg.
On the way home we took a state highway thru more middle of nowhere, including sand dunes.
