Open Dogs . . . Evan left (some lame excuse about a dog in the ring). 15 are entered, but only 7 are here. Up first is Kent with Promise Keeper (Liz Oster is on the ground in front of us with a bell hiding from the dog). Next is Summer with Kirk (Summer has enough energy that she is running around even when she isn't taking the dog around - must be nice to be young). Next is Kelly with Checkmate, then Scott with J.I.Joe, followed by Denali. Jeff just took Bonafide around; and last up for individuals is Diane with Angus Bull. Bob split the class in two (4 & 3) and looked at each group separately. He is now combining the groups into one with Promise Keeper in front followed by Angus Bull, then J.I.Joe, and then Bonafide. Bob takes the first three around, and looks, but makes no moves. He then takes the next four around. He looks . . . and looks . . but again no changes. He takes them around one at a time. He looks them over again, but still no changes. Next he asks each for a Down&Back. Bob looks . . .and thinks . . and looks some more; but again no changes. He now takes the middle three around and moves Kirk up to third. Then he looks at the first tow and moves Angus up to first, one pass and moves Promise Keeper back in front. So he now has Promise Keepr, Angus, Kirk and J.I.Joe. One more look at the last 3; and then another look at the front four. Bob moves JiJoe back to third and looks satisfied. So they finish Promise Keeper, Angus, J.I.Joe then Kirk.
I am jazzed, Summer got a ribbon at the National. Thanks to Tony for taking over.
