2022-05-13 to 2022-05-15 Out of Province Trial Notes
We went to a first long distance, camping over ight trial and she handled it like a boss. No whining while driving and she even barked once (like just one small bark) to request a pee stop.
I had an expen set-up and it was actually very handy to use as a staging area, so I will probably keep hauling it around. I'll need to improve my tie downs, but I have room for it in the car.
We got two catches for far out for 35pts. I'm not too disappointed since I was aiming for 30pts total spread over the three catches. She's still not super heads down drivey for them which is good.
4way play was another quad + hot corner. We tried for the zone 2 as well, but she overran the disc but thankfully not too low. She was dropping early though so I'm going to have to reinforce the give to hand/only drop on cue.
In between rounds, we also worked on a chin rest and now have it on a physical cue. Not her favourite because it is still, but she likes it when paired with a backup to reset since at least there is some action.
My friends from Calgary also really like her and she got to meet a lot of people as well as a few other puppies. She does come on strong to begin with, but backed off after a few snarks.
