Vossastevnet 06-07.04.2013


"Coming together is a beginning; keeping together is progress; working together is success." - Henry Ford

Now our first official competition is over. How did it end, you might ask?!? Well, let me illustrate with a picture:

The competition for myself and my self-confidence was a major success. After almost a year of no competitions, rehabilitation and meticulous training, we started in our first real competition. This happened in Voss, a place mostly known for their excellent skiing facilities and strange food habits. (Basically they eat a full sheeps head)..

The trip to Voss started on friday 05.04 as Team Speedfreaks picked up "The Chiquitas", that being Team Isabelle/Bella & Team Maia/Zita. We got on the way, had a pitstop in Stord to get the alcohol purchased, before we continued our way to Voss. The weather was really great and we had a great trip. We even got to see what happens when someone eats a donut which tastes like pear, then you mix it with ice tea, laugh and then magic will happen :p hahah...

The competition was judged by the Danish judge, Regin Reinhardt. In my opinion this was a judge who produced very interesting and fun judges, with good lines and excellent speed for the dogs. It was a good judge for Leija and me, and I really, really liked his courses.

First run of the day was Agility 1, and it started very good on saturday for me and Leija that ended with a thrid place finish and 15.00 fault points, but 10sec below the standard time due to some propblems with the zee-zaw. Movie is below:


Second run was Jump 1, and we finished better than the first run.


On Sunday we started in the opposite way, with Jumping first and then Agility after:

We disqualified on this run, 100% handler error and showing her the wrong way to run.

Luckily I was able to reset myself and get my mind set on the proper channel again, giving us an ok run for the agility, even though Leija got the "ghost" symptom on zee-zaw and dog-walk:


The total "scorelist" for us this weekend can be seen below:
That's all from 'Team Speedfreaks' for now. Talk again soon :)
