first year trialing
first year trialing
Just proud of my dog Dougie after his first trial year.He ran in 12 broke stakes and placed in 9 of those .He was clean in 11 of the 12 roundsand was placed or called back in all 11.He also placed in 2 horseback trials with a 3rd in OLGD and a 3rd in ALGD.I think i'm hooked now.Big thanks to Brenda for all her help.Met a lot of nice people at the trials and enjoyed it more than i believed i would.Hope i can finish him this fall.Not a trial around me that's not 9 hours away.Anyway, lots of fun .Thanks, Tony

Re: first year trialing
Nice looking dog. It's great getting through clean the majority of the time. It's the wins that get you hooked and spending some money.. did I mention the money part?
