End of May?

How is it already the end of may? Seriously? This half of the year has flown by. I can't believe 2011 is already halfway gone!
 Moxie now has 5QQs for AKC Nationals, and 214 points. We have a 3 day show coming up in AKC, so hoping to finish QQ#6 and some much needed points off. Points are always the most difficult thing to come by. She got to play at 16 inches in a team event with my friend Aprils dog Frenzy. Needless to say, she had a BALL going over the 16 inch speed bumps. I have been working on weaves entries with her, not the normal entries (she has been awesome in trials) but the really hard soft side entries she seems to have trouble with. She is doing pretty well in practice and she has picked up a lot of speed and drive through the weaves. And as always, working her contact stays. She is really pushy, and holds them really well some days, and pauses and releases herself others. I have a screaming match with her most of the time on contacts, you can hear me repeating "SPOT! STAY! YOU STAY!!! STAY!!!!!!!!" and it's usually for not. She pauses and now it's turned into a "how long can you make me stay on the flat" contest. What a rat!
 Sally is SO much better! She got Steeplechase #2 and is now qualified for Nationals. I'll putz around with Grand Prix, but it's not really a huge goal of mine. Just getting her there is enough. She gets to run all 3 days in the AKC trial too, and now she is in excellent B jumpers after a really nice title run a few weeks ago. Happy she is back in the game. She's my girl, that's for sure!
 Hustle! Well, his dogwalk is, uh, it's there. He "sort of" understands the 2o2o. His aframe looks very good though! I need to really go in and solidify his understanding if the 6 recall to heel positions and then really start working his lateral and forward sends. His weave entries are good enough that I think I am going to add in the 2nd set of poles again. I REALLY want good weaves with him, so I am trying to proof the beegezus out of them. He really, really likes to the teeter. I can see this causing several wrong courses in his young future. All in all, purse puppy is looking decent for his September "redebut." Should be a good time!
