Q: Officially clean, "stuck" on aframe - 2 pts
Decent speed to start with a blind cross early. She did lose focus very briefly on approach
to aframe, looking toward the door area.
Then she had a very slow, unsure descent of the aframe. I don't know if it had to do with her last
Fargo one being "shamed" or not.
Her second aframe was much better.
Slow weaves but she did all 12.Q: Officially clean, "stuck" on aframe - 2 pts

There was a fair amount of distance from jump 2 to jump 3
and so she needed to do 2 a little independently for me to get the cross after
3, which she did. Slow weaves but then
really good speed on everything after weave.
I thought sequence to front cross was especially nice. The run, however, included a number of ticks
of the bars that only I could hear. At
least three, maybe four or five.
Fortunate that none of them came down.
Strange in that I haven't heard many ticks in all her other runs.

Big puppy sit on the start line. A big delay in dogwalk release but she was
again coughing up a treat that again, fortunately did not hit the ground. I need to look at changing up our pre-run
routine if coughing up treats continues.
OK speed on descent of aframe but I asked her to release before she was
stopped! Bad me, I'm guessing slow
dogwalk release influenced me there. She
then looked hard at me coming off aframe and didn't see me push her to broad
jump until the last second. She had very
little speed for the broad jump, I'm surprised she cleared it. Coming out of the tunnel she wanted to take
the broad jump backward. My position kept
her from it but also kept her from approaching teeter so she could get on
it. She ran a bit by it but had good
response to come back. She did a nice
auto-down on the table and over-jumped a tiny bit in clearing the double.
Sunday 3/31/13 Visisted stewards in ring twice. The speed off the start line was good. It was followed by an early wrong course, our first sign of a little distraction. I led out from table and she was fine with that. After good speed taking double-triple combo, she briefly visited a bar setter. She got off the aframe without an official release but I basically let it go. A little later she was taking a set of jumps to the weaves and veered off to go visit another bar setter. This one was a longer "visit". I really don't think it was weave avoidance, I don't think she saw them, but I'll have to keep an eye on that. She then approached her weaves and did them well with good speed for this point. Finished fine including a nice dogwalk contact.

NQ - Two bars and one wrong course
Not a good run although not awful. Jumping was off. Kris claimed later that she pooped a big
pile, don't know if that was it or not.
Started with a big puppy sit and first two strides out of it was
slow. Opening line was slow with a drop
bar on 3, mostly just because of lack of effort. Picked up speed after blind cross but that
was followed by wrong course. Then hit
triple when she left a bit early.
Finished ok after that including doing weaves without hesitation.
