Molly's first trip to C-Side yesterday (I know one of the videos says C-Side but that was in fact WAG). She went clear in the starters jumping, we even managed to get a good time, but missed out on a place by a fraction of a second, but I'm sure we weren't the only ones!
She did everything I asked of her and I am very proud!
The other starters agility and both opens there were mistakes (mine, obviously) but she looked for her weaves - even coming straight out of a tunnel at top molly speed! She got the entry and didn't pop out until the second to last one and then corrected herself without any prompting from me! It was a really good effort! They took a few goes on the Open Agility but on the others they came together nicely. She is so nearly there!
She was a superstar yesterday, calm in the queues, listened to everything I asked and tried so hard to get it right. I could not have asked for her to work any harder, she was fab!
Contacts were there, not perfect, but no leaping off the A Frame, which has been a problem outside of her normal training environments.
Congratulations also to Bella the boxer for her clear rounds!
Thank you to Leah, Wendy and Nancy for all their guidance (especially weave-wise!)
Nancy - you'll be pleased to know I did not say "No" or "wrong" or "lazy" (<--- have stopped this, promise!) when she came out of the weaves on the open, we just walked back and went through again until she got them!
