Скачать или смотреть Secret's NADAC Trial - Oct 22 & 23, 2011

Secret was NOT feeling it at this trial. She started out well in her first run on Saturday but came out of the gate slower than I have seen her for some time in her second class. For the rest of the day it felt like I was just pulling her through the courses -- We only got half way through the Jumpers round at the end of the day before I withdrew because she just was not into it whatsoever. She does have a scrape on her hind leg, but I really don't think it's in a position that bothers her.

Sunday started out much better -- She had a really nice Jumpers round that was 5.47 yps, followed by her first time in ELITE Chances. I didn't think there was a hope of her getting it because I had to stay way away from the dog walk contact, but she got it! Her first Q in Elite Chances! (no video, unfortunately....)

She made it through the last two rounds of Regular with Q's, but the last round was back to pulling her through the course. It surprised me to see that she made large dog time so it wasn't that slow, but it's still not where she's been lately. I think she's just still a bit burnt out from Champs.

Next trial in three weeks -- We'll see the chiro again and hopefully get some of that spark back.
