So dezasterous gundogs gave me a invite and we took off for the gsp club of Reno trial where Kimber picked up a first in the walking OGD. It was a 4 point major with 18 dogs. She started pretty big and was scouted by Matt who had her the entire time (great job because I sure didnt have her). she had one find with perfect birdwork and even smiled after the bird was shot. Walked all the way back to her (Because I was running and even threw my hat to try to get the thing to fly) and tapped on the head for the retrieve.
On Sunday in the amateur Matt again did a good scouting job and I didn't see him until he was bringjng her back up to the front after she made a right turn and went to run the tree line on the mountain (which would have been a great move in an all age stake) But we made a left. Judge leaned over and told me I brought a race car to the walking trial and she was just not a gun dog. I laughed, thanked them both and did the always popular "walk of shame".
Now.its back to training for the fall!
