Green Ribbons

 Ok Everybody

I know we left you hanging so

here we go

 

Most of the pictures are from Saturday cause one

 of the grandpeeps came along with us

 and ran the camera

 

Each morning we were in the Beginner Novice Class

 

 

First we do a short heeling pattern

following the signs

 



 

Forward, fast, slow, about turns and halt.

 



 

Then a figure 8 around two peeps

The lady in red is the judge

 

I also had to sit nicely and let

the judge touch my head

 



Next is the sit stay in the center of the ring

while Mom walks all the way around

 

Then Mom tells me to stay for the recall

 

 

She calls and I come running

 

In the afternoon we were in the

Rally Novice class

 

Rally is kinda like a road course,

we follow the numbered cones and

do what ever the sign tell us to do.

 

 

It's lots of fun and not as formal as obedience

Mom can talk to me and

use her hands and body language

(no touching though)

to guide me through the course

 

It was very hot butt

Mom kept me cool with my chilly pads

 

 

So

 

 back to the title of this post

 

GREEN RIBBONS

 

Although it is nice to win a blue ribbon,

and they do award for 1st thru 4th place,

the green ribbons are the important ones

 

A green ribbon means that you earned

a qualifying score that counts toward your title

3 qualifying scores in a class earns that title

 

To qualify in obedience you need

at least 170 pts out of 200

 

To qualify in Rally you need

at least 70 pts out of 100

 

So without further ado

I qualified all three days in Rally Novice and

earned my RN title, finishing Sunday

with a score of 95 and 3rd place!

 

I qualified Fri and Sat in Novice Obedience

with 3rd place Fri and 4th place on Sat

Sunday I bailed on my sit stay cause

there was a stick over in the corner

I just had to check out

What can I say?

 

 

Like I told you Monday

What a Great Weekend!!!
