1-20-08 Charisse AKC standard
There were so many things I did wrong on this run! I did a rear cross before the teeter but
there was no turn after the teeter so I shouldn't have rear crossed at all. I tried to use a
serpentine arm on the jump before the teeter so it wasn't a flick to the teeter but I didn't
hold the serpentine arm long enough so when Charisse went to the teeter, it was a MAJOR
flick away! We try to never ever flick the dogs away from us. What I SHOULD have done was
drive into the pocket of the pinwheel before the teeter, used a threadle arm to take her off
the off course to the left and then rear crossed the jump BEFORE the teeter. I made a
handling mess of it for sure!
Charisse goes wide in a few places but we are working on it.
1-12-08 USDAA Starter's Standard.
This was Charisse's third leg in USDAA starters. We would have had our title but Mel
walked the pairs course wrong and left out a tunnel so we still need a pairs leg to move up
in everything.
