Dexter’s first Steeplechase

August 20, 2011 By The Food Lady 12 Comments

2nd place (that cursed running around the weave entrance, eating up valuable seconds) and a Q!

We’ve been working VERY hard on his contacts, so there was a lot less creeping today than in the last trial.  Now we need to work on his weaves in a trial atmosphere … he can nail his entry from anywhere at home and at class, but in trials he always acts like an idiot who has never seen weaves before  ;-)

    He is terrific considering how young he is. And very, very fast. Congratulations on the second place he’s done great. :)
    He deserves lots of “brownies” for that ;)

    Lots of hugs for Dexter and best wishes.:o)

    Nice distance work for a baby dog and, as fast as he is, you are going to need it! Go, Dexter! Go, Food Lady! No videos of Tweed? I thought he was also running this weekend.

    No, that’s not dexter – Dex runs virtually silently, except for when he screws up his weave pole entrance and barks at me ;-) Other than that, he is always quiet :)

    He’s not even running fast yet.

    Jet is 3 yrs and still has those green dog WP drive by’s…In Jet’s case I think it is a matter of him moving so fast he can’t or won’t control his speed, so rather than ping pong off the WP’s poles he runs by them, then looks at me like, CRAP! I missed the entry again…LOL! Just so you know there is hope…
