LRCPV part 2

Yesterday's trial didn't produce nearly as much in the way of stories to tell. We thought that we'd be done by 10:00 a.m., as the entry was very small; we got up at 5:00 a.m. to be there and ready to go at 9:15. It turned out, though, that there was a Sheltie club having a specialty trial at the same time and we were sharing judges so instead, we didn't get done til after noon.

Anyway, the long wait made me antsy and Bethena bored. She spent a LONG time sniffing at the same spot in the ring that she did yesterday (different course, tho, this time it was by station 3). She managed to get an 80 and her second leg with a pretty white rosette for fourth place and, again most importantly in her eyes, a new toy.

The highlight of the day, tho, was playing with the hose at the pool. The club had two pools set up for the dogs and Bethena entertained the people who were sitting by them with her enthusiastic chase of the water from the hose. When I stopped playing with the hose, I put it down and turned around for some reason. Bad move.

Bethena picked the hose up, put her mouth over the squeeze control for the hose, and promptly started spraying me! That REALLY got a laugh. Luckily, the nozzle was set on "shower" instead of "soaker."

On to Boston June 14 and 15..... rally for Bethena, novice obedience for Iggy..... don't think Bethena is ready for graduate novice, or we would do that too.
