We had a great time in Prunedale! The cool, foggy mornings and evenings are a pleasure at this time of year.
The dogs ran great! Our Team day started out a bit rocky but we rallied while others struggled with the Relay course and ended up taking 3rd overall - Podium! And on a boat!
Thanks to Ivette White for the photo! (L to R: Carol & Deenie, Dave & Boca, Erika & Cadence)
On the non-team days, Boca won Biathlon, Trek got 4 Qs towards his LAA (but alas no Gamblers legs) and Cadence earned 9 Qs amid some much-needed startline schooling. She now just needs 2 Gamblers Qs for her ADCH-Silver.
Unfortunately our friend Liza was injured so we got to try running her dogs for her. Erika and Taiko went 2/3, winning P3 Relay and taking 3rd in P3 Gamblers. Dave and Monty had some great runs including 2nd in Steeplechase Rd 2, but not so much in the Q department as Dave learned to adjust to Monty's stride.
We also took some time out for family photos since Boca's brother and parents were all at the trial.
L to R: Taiko, Boca, Tug and Rubi
