Zae AX and first QQ

Zae recently earned his AX putting him into masters standard.  Our competition after that he earned his first double QQ with a third and fourth place 😀

Mayhem has been doing super too and running very fast in competition.  He is such an amazing dog and it feels great to be pushed as a handler in the ring with him.   The Bad Dog Agility power rankings are out for the beginning of the year and Mayhem is the 3rd fastest boston this year so far…I intend to keep pushing to be the best we can be 🙂

Next several competitions are all in different locations and on different surfaces–excited for a change ! 🙂

Happy second birthday Zae !

Zae turned two years old Dec 19 !   He is such a good dog and has grown up to be so handsome 🙂

Zae OA OAJ

Zae had two days trialing at two different locations Nov 20 and 27 and earned a title each day. 🙂  Zae has moved up much quicker than anticipated in the levels.  We were in no rush to move up levels with the days here and there we did compete–novice and open were just easy breezy for the little skip skap!

Nov 20 was a novice/open only trial and Zae not only won each of his classes but had the fastest time of all heights too.  He nailed a beautiful dogwalk into a weave entry perfectly in standard.  And in jumpers midway though the run I noticed my shoe was untied so not so good handling :o)

 

 

Mayhem’s 6th birthday was Nov 25–he still is a little baby though 😀 He also competed Nov 27 but was battling his ring stress and did not Q in his runs.

Coming up Dec 19 Zae will turn two years old!  Also, because I am finishing up my last semester before I graduate we will take a break from competing until Dec is over.
