May Trial

Last year at this trial we were slowly baking in 90+ degree temps. This year we were bundled up in fleece hats and winter coats enduring the wind chill! Most of us were more than happy to endure a bit of wind burn to see the dogs run fast with big smiles in the unexpected cold snap. It was a huge improvement!

The next generation of agility pups got to practice a bit and just hang out and watch the big dogs strut their stuff. By the time they debut they will all be seasoned travelers and trial goers. We are excited to see them in the ring sometime in 2014!
