Well I had 6 dogs qualified to run total bummer part was I was unable to run my dogs due to a pretty bad Knee injury I sustained at a trial 2 weeks ago when my knee finally gave out I had gotten my young dog qualified at that trial ,,,,So bob had to run them for me plus the dog he had qualified...so he had 7 dogs to run
So Mollie and Yotie they had after noon braces on the bad field ..they both had a couple birds they did good but not enough
then My new dog smoke he is still transistioning from AKC trials to NSTRA and still needs some work on marking his birds but he ended up 5th place in the one field with 3 bird and a back his poor marking cost him some retrieve points
then Blazer he was 4th place he also had 3 birds and a back but scored better then smoke and the Bullet was 3rd place in the same field he scored better then blazer also having 3 birds and a back
in the other field Picabo had 3 birds and a back and she also was 3rd place
so from the first round of elimination 1/2 hour braces the top 3 dogs from each field went for another elimination round th top two scorers from that second round went on to run an hour final...well unfortunately Bullet and Picabo didn't make the final hour they did how ever place as K Nines Beeline Bullet 2nd R/U and Tucalota Creek Picabo taking 3rd R/U
there was another brittany I am not sure if she was 4 or 5th runner up but 3 brittanys made the top 6 dogs for the AZ regionals a GSP ended up CH and a nice running pudel pointer got R/U
and an eng pointer made top 6 also
the points that Bullet got in the finals was enough to finish his 2nd NSTRA championship title
and also neat thing was having 2 progeny from my breeding that qualified to run one was a bullet picabo pup he did pretty good the gunner missed a couple birds which cost him as today the birds flew well so he still made it in the top 15 score which got him a big bag of pro Plan Performance and the a Bullet Mollie pup Yotie she stll has some to go but she did pretty good and she won't be 2 till the 23rd
So all in all was a pretty good day and a final little brag is this is the 3rd time I have had 2 dogs in the top 6 at the same time
will post picture later when I get a copy ....
