Default Legs toward UD and CDX

Just wanted to share some happy news. Gavin earned his first Utility leg this weekend. Helki earned her first CDX leg with a 195.5. I'm on cloud nine!

Thank you! I was a mess the first day and botched my recall signal. Gav looked at me like huh? It was good though because all the pressure lifted and we could just have fun with the remaining exercises. He q'd in everything else and I was just tickled. My goal for the weekend was to try to get the major components correct and have this be a good ring experience. (this was the first time in utility for both of us.). Then, on day two we finish up dj and the judge looked at me and said what leg? I burst into tears and kept asking really? Really?! What a rush!

I hear you, people don't know how hard it is, on both dog & handler.
I lost one for Deejay, as I took to many steps after the moving stand.
It was a year for us between out 1st leg & finishing, but we went out with a bang 4 in a row at one show.

Good Luck!!

Wow! Four in a row is amazing!

I hear you on the moving stand. I did a really weird stutter step on the first day as I almost paused (like for signals). On day two, just kept repeating MOVING stand in my head. Gah.

I spoke to several people who had been to tons of trials with no q's. One lady said she stopped counting the nq's after 50 shows. Yikes!

Way to go! Utility ( also know as 101 ways to embarass your handler or Futility for those of us who have participated in the venue).
