Well, I bit the bullet...

...and entered the ASCA trial in May. This will be me and Cedar's first stockdog trial experience in any venue. I know that ASCA is by no means the accomplishment that USBCHA is, but I hope that Cedar and I can get around the course calmly and without stress or any major train wrecks. I have her entered in three trials, two on Saturday and one on Sunday. Hopefully we can qualify at least twice so we can get our STD (lol!!!) title. There is still a possibility that I might enter her on ducks. I may go out and try her on ducks at Janie's this weekend, we'll see. I'm hoping to go out to Dianne's on both Saturday and Sunday if possible. We need all the help we can get!

I'm also signed up for the Don Couch clinic in two weeks. It's most centered on penning on working in tight spaces which I think could be really fun and interesting. We haven't worked on this stuff much in our training so I'm excited to learn something new. Hopefully Cedar won't freak out from the pressure :-P

This spring is shaping up to be pretty fun, and full of stockdog (and other dog) activities.... just how I like it!
