What a fantastic day, this is only the 2nd time these 4 dogs ahave raced together, Ronny has a new inexperienced handler in Nigel and Amy is now patnering Maisy leaving Jo and I spare to run our inexperienced dogs Keisha and Dylan, and of course not forgetting our fantastic helpers on the day Sheila (Jo's mum) as boxloader and Luke and Alice assisting in the ring.
Raicng started well, we were seeded 3rd and were first up against the second seed "Demon Pawz" we had a clean sweep beating them 3-0 and came out with a best ever time of 19.97 seconds - we were all very excited we had smashed our PB and gone under 20 seconds. next we were against the "Monday Niters" seeded 6th and again a clean sweep 3-0 with a fastest time of 20.05 all was going really well as we went into the luchtime break. After lunch we raced "Molten Marvels" seeded 5th and again we won 3-0 this time with a fastest time of 20 seconds dead. next up was the "Molten Metals" seeded 1st, we were now pushing our crossovers with tired dogs and Maisy had a light in the first race, but Amy adjusted her position on the line and we won the next 3 races. this left it all up to the last race against the "Knights" seeded 4th, all day they had been running at around the same times as us so we knew going into the ring this race was for 1st and 2nd place. we did our best but lost all but one race, on this occasion the Knights were too good for us, but I'm sure we'll meet them again in the future and hopefully we'll have more experience. Our dogs were brilliant, and they went home very happy with a 2nd place rosette and an extra helping of dinner.
