So this post is about three weeks late, but better late than never right? Kerri competed in her first ever trial and she did amazing! It was a CPE trial, and because it was indoors they did not do standard, only games. I entered her in colors and jumpers. Colors is basically two different colored courses and you pick one, jumpers is just jumps and tunnels. I am amazed to report we got qualifying runs in both! I was hoping that she would stay with me and we would get to the end of the course at least. so even though it was not perfect AT ALL I am incredibly happy with how things went! In colors she did really good but I should have run faster myself, I think I really held her back. In jumpers she went for a tunnel but luckily didn't actually go in it. Watch the video below or click here to go to my youtube channel.
I hope this will be the first of many trials for us! Kerri has so much fun, and she really is showing potential I think. It is times like these when all those puppy months seem worth it. Getting Kerri at 12 weeks was a lot of work but that time I spent with her as a puppy is obvious now that she is a well trained, talented adult dog!
Enjoy a few shots of Kerrigan posing with her metals.
