RubyStar Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 (edited) How are your nerves holding up, Mas2009 and mirawee? I remember the loo was my best friend the day of my first trial TMI? Well my double chocolate chip cookie baking attempt was an epic fail. They are more like mini cakes than biscuits But it's all I have to snack on at the trial so I'll still bring them with a sign that says consume at your own risk. Shoulda stuck to my old faithfuls and not try something new!!!! Brownies or honeycomb slice next time! Though I doubt I will have time tomorrow for agility, I'm squeezing in some retrieving training in in the morning Crazy, yep I think so!!!

I bought some mini cupcakes to share tonight Surprisingly I have been fine nerve wise the whole day - what will be will be and no reason for me to get nervous although I am a little. More excited than nervous i think . Merriwee is lucky as she has been judged before in agility, first time in a real trial for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More excited than nervous i think . Merriwee is lucky as she has been judged before in agility, first time in a real trial for me I think this is why at my first agility trial, I wasn't nervous. Being already in the ring before for obedience, and considerably longer than an agility round, prepares you for the 20-30 secs or whatever you're in the agility ring I was so nervous for my first obedience trial that I forgot to have a jackpot prepared outside the ring, and poor Ruby is standing there still unrewarded while I'm chatting away in my relief for it to be over I remember Ptolomy shoving handfuls of food in my hand to hurry up and get a reward into her Bad mummy I am Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozjen Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Was hoping that everyone competing tonight would have their results up, but only know how Mirrawee went. Hope that means you all did great and are hanging around for the presentation. Wanted to come tonight but feel like s...t, what a great way to start my two weeks of holidays. If I look like a drunken sailor tomorrow night, I promise I haven't been drinking, but I am hoping that I will wake up normal tomorrow, well as normal as I get anyway.

Ptolomy Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Mirawee did so well tonight especially considering it was her first trial. Labrat made the most yummy chocolate cake and Rubystars bickies looked terrific too Caffy had a good night with Snazzy coming 2nd in Open and Bedazzled and Brookie took out UD. Andrea and Smudge took out Open, Ann with Trick won CCD and Janice and Rusty won novice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RubyStar Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 and Rubystars bickies looked terrific too Yep, LOOKED :D :D Congrats again mirawee and to all the other winners and grinners! I wasn't a winner, not even a pass for either of my girls, but I am still a grinner! Millie bombed on the final exercise, she didn't drop all the way down, but otherwise gave a great round Ruby managed to do her heelwork, though I still can't overcome that distraction she gets on the final straight down the ring back towards where all the people are, she loses most concentration at that point. She stayed with me though :D Then we bombed on stand for exam, she wanted to give the judge a tongue bath :D Very happy with my kids, and a pass will come in its own time!!

mirawee Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Well I don't get nervous at agility trials but I can safely say I do at obedience! Luckily Varda put up with my short comings and was a star! I think I lost all the points or miscued her to lose the points But 92 and 2nd place so I am very happy. But now I have finally done my first trial I hopefully will be better at the next one Mason did well up until the stays then go tired :D Labrat's cake was yummy as always and RS's biscuits were no where near as bad as she was making out Now onwards for agility and showing!

ness Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 LOL I totally agree with that Ptolomy - especially with a dog who has taken to lying down in the last week or so :D :D . I mean seriously who thought that was a sensible exercise to include in obedience anyway - the dogs all know if there going to be left for any length of time they might as well get themselves comfy in a drop.
