Ellee's FIRST Agility Show

Well itis finally time for Ellee to go to her first agility show.  I applied and got her CPE number and  signed her up. That is the up side---the down side is that she is already 1 and 1/2 years old, old enough to compete AND growing up!!!  The baby puppy is gone..  But I do love this young girl personality.  The show is at our club.  A few weeks ago Marcie gave me a series of class with her as Ellees handler so they would have a chance to work together before Marcie runs her at the agility competition.  Ellee is not the most excited runner--speed and correctness of obstacles does not really worry her!  But I think she could do well. Tulla will also run.  Steele is on a break right now.  And the two little ones just did the TDAA show a few weekis ago, so it is just Ellee and Tulla for one very full day of runs at this show.  Ellee needs to work on her weaves skills quite a bit, but she is pretty good on most other obstacles.  The teeter is OK if she does have to go over it too many times.  And jumps are fine if they are not too high or there aren't too many of them.  So we will go next week and see how it works.  Tulla will have a blast--and I hope she slows down enough to avoid her usual mistakes.  She has the potential to be GREAT!!!  I always hope that this is the TULLA MOMENT!!!!   Check  back later and see how they did??!!!

UPDATE:  SHE TOOK TWO FIRST PLACE RIBBONS AND ONE SECOND!  ((THE SECOND WAS REALLY MARCIE'S FAULT!!!  HAHAHA!    HANDLERS DO SOMETIMES MAKE MISTAKES---BUT this wasn't really Marcie's fault,
Ellee LOVES the a-frame and she just went around a jump to get to it and she did it so fast that she touched the frame before Marcie could call her back to jump the jump.  In the final round she just had fun but was buzzed out when she went off course.  WE HAD A GREAT TIME AND ELLEE WAS BETTER FOCUSED AND DID MUCH BETTER THAN I HAD HOPED---AND MOST IMPORTANT IS THAT SHE QUALIFIED IN HER EVENTS!!!!!  THANKS MARCIE AND I LOVE YOU ELLEE!
