It's another fun show at Happy Dog, hands down my favorite place to show. Lynn Sigman's courses are challenging, but fun. There's kind of a slice jump theme happening and odd lines, which are causing a bit of bars to come down. Finn and Vic were super yet again. Finn spooked on the dogwalk in Standard and run around the 3rd to last obstacle shortly thereafter. He did Q in everything else today. Not sure about his placement in PSJ, he and Cinder took 1st in Pairs with two super efforts (even with Finn running the second half!), he was 3rd in Snooker, missing the final weave entry in the close and took 2nd in Gamblers. He's getting in range of his LAA-Gold. He's less than 20 legs away with legs still needed in Pairs and Gamblers. I think he needs 6-7 gambles and 3-4 pairs, plus the rest of the legs. I'd love to get that done in time to pick up the award at Cynosports 2010... I wonder if they'll be moving up the timeline to complete such things...
Vic was really good. He ran clean in everything and the only NQ was Pairs. His partner Kat had a baby dog moment, after smoking him in Rd. 1 of Steeplechase. That run did have a naughty frame by Vic, but I decided to push, thinking we could still make time, so I didn't mark it. He was great on 2 frames in Snooker the next class. In terms of results, he was 2nd in Standard, 4th in Rd. 1 of Steeplechase, 1st in Snooker, which also was his SCH-Bronze and Qed in Gambers. We took time marking a self-released teeter or he'd have been in the ribbons. Vic was so super today, he just blows my mind.
One more day tomorrow and I think it will be the longest day. I'd love to get a Jumpers leg with a placement for Top 10 standings, but after the first two days, tomorrow is really a gravy day.

I'll post about the rest of the day later, but big news first... Vic picked up his fourth Standard leg in a row to finish his ADCH this morning with a 2nd Place. I can't say I remember feeling nervous, for some reason I knew it would be this weekend, if not today, then tomorrow. Only Starlet's ADCH was completed somewhere other than Happy Dog (Contact Point) and she did finish her ADCH-Bronze at Happy Dog. It's my favorite place to show and Lynn Sigman is one of my favorite judges. I was definitely excited and trying to stay focused. ;-) Vic, he's just amazing, it's been a while since I saw a Standard course that intimidated me, when I was running Vic. He's so solid and easy. It's hard to remember how young my 6 weeks shy of 3 year old boy is. He's an old soul and my perfect teammate. I think we really suite each other, in a way you can't plan for, you just luck out in getting. I'm enjoying every moment of this ride, even the brain piercing pre-run barking. :-)

sore
And we have the off-courses to prove it. ;-) He was a good boy today, picked up a Gamblers, Standard and Grand Prix leg (2nd Q towards 2010). There was lots of good on all the runs, but man did we have disconnects in Snooker and Jumpers. Snooker my brain never fully recovered by his self-released frame (I froze instead of requesting a "sit") and he kept going straight with authority when I was attempting to pull to a jump. Jumpers was such a nice run, on a punishing course. He did such a nice post turn at the 4th to last obstacle I mentally relaxed, never thinking he'd kick off me to a jump when I was pulling to a tunnel. I love that he's looking for things to take and committing earlier to lines, but it did surprise me to see him off taking jumps by himself. ;-)
Finn was a good boy too. He was WILD in Gamblers. I just chased after him as he chose obstacles. I knew the chances of him making the weave entry in Gambers weren't high when he went 20 feet away from me to a tire and then the dogwalk, all while I was saying "FINN COME!!!" Snooker I forgot that if they knocked one of the 7 jumps in the opening it was dead for the rest of the opening... Jumpers I hyper managed a jump and after giving me every opportunity to tell him to take the jump, he finally came off it. Standard was a nice run, he Qed and took 2nd. We also had a nice PNS run for his 2nd Q towards 2010.
I can't believe how sore I am and it's only the first day...

shocked
I've been in heavy denial that agility is happening again this year, but today I realized I could deny no longer. Now I knew Karen's Tournament trial was in the beginning of Dec., but in my head I thought I had a week off between this weekend's 3 day Masters trial (with GP and Steeplechase) and the CP show. Really, I was convinced there was at least a week between. Yeah, no, it's back to back weekends of agility. I guess the good news is Finn and Vic could be all qualified for Nat'ls at the end of it, but what the hell was I thinking?!?! This weekend has a TON of classes, I believe 3 days of Gamblers and Snooker, 2 days of Pairs and Jumpers, plus 3 Standards, GP and Steeplechase. Thankfully, I'm just running Finn and Vic, Pairs with an agility friend's dog and maybe a Snooker with Wikki Woo Woo. Then I do have a week off, but that's the club's x-mas party, so I'll be helping put on a pay 'n play. Then I have 2 days with Nancy Gyes hosted by Stephanie. Then it's at least 3 weeks of NO agility (aside from teaching) and lots of hikes for the crew.
I ran Vic in class today. He's brilliant, I kind of suck.

So last year I was sure I'd be seeing my relatives this year, but between Max and Mike's Dad (he's had some really rough going with his diabetes recently, it would help if he were more diligent about taking care of himself...sigh), looks like we're going to stay close to home. I think we'll just head out for food with Mike's folks, but there's an outside chance I'm cooking dinner for us tomorrow. That would actually be my preferred thing, since then Max could sit at the table and eat with us. ;-) We may end up doing an Thanksgiving meal in the evening after afternoon dinner with his folks, so Max can get spoiled as rotten as he so obviously deserves. Max continues to do really well. I'm terrified that we're getting closer to goodbye, but that's just my internal clock ticking, nothing about how Max is acting says that it's coming soon. We've been so blessed to have this reprieve and thankful doesn't quite cover how I feel about it. I love my Max.

I'm starting to get a little impatient waiting for pics from Nationals. Fortunately, I bought a couple of Vic while we were out there. Okay, one is an 8x10 of him weaving and then there's the too big to scan watercolor also of him weaving. I'm a sucker, but am proud I didn't buy an out of focus jumping show, just because it was of Vic doing something other than weaving. ;-) For whatever reason, my scanner is being lame, so I can't share the Tien Tran. :-( Fortunately, Kristi's friend Steve was taking pics too. Actually, if you know of anyone in Group D, you may want to pass on this on: http://www.flickr.com/photos/24184105@N05/sets/72157622724549903/

This is actually my favorite time. Vic absolutely needs some down time from agility, so I can't start doing my homework, I just get to think about it. Love thinking theory and plotting ways to get the improvements I'm looking for. Most of it is the same sort of stuff we've been working on, but here it is:
Speed off the startline/reading extension leadouts. If I'm facing Vic, he will almost always default to throwing in a bonus stride, even if I'm 20 feet from the jump. The competition solution to it is moving leadouts, but I would like to have better understanding of my location indicating how he can take the jump.
Lateral pulls.
Broadjump Vic's actually pretty solid about it, but I don't have the confidence to handle it the way I should. Seeing it in practice more often would help that. :-)
Extension rear crosses.
Extension in bending lines.
More speed on the contacts, specifically the dogwalk.
With the exception of the lateral pulls and extension cuing rcs, none of this needs major work, but that's the list I have. I also want to continue to improve my eye for the best handling choices for Vic and I need to occasionally run a course all out in competition. I'm thinking that next year GP's that have byes available will be those courses, plus some Rd. 2 of Steeplechase and obviously Jumpers (where there's no major criteria to blur). Plus I want to make sure I don't break any of the wonderful skills Vic has right now on my quest to improve. I'm very lucky to have as much access to great trainers as I do and I'm looking forward to picking some mega-brains in the next 6 months. In the meantime, I'm having far too much fun with course designer making up exercises.

It was a week of almosts for my crew. Finn was a very good boy. I knew the competition in 22" would be radically improved this year and I wasn't wrong, plus Finn is a year older now. He was a super solid boy. There were 13 more points I'd have love to have gotten in PVP (missed up on the dogwalk and a 7 in Snooker), but otherwise I don't think we could have done much more than we did. He was the 9th dog in PSJ (they took 8) and missed his entry (only entry missed all week) in semifinals of PNS. Powered By Fear with Kristi and Cinder did make the PVP Finals. Up to the Finals our highest ranking was 5th and we went in as the 5th seed. When we first walked the course, we didn't realize there was an option on which side to take, so I was dreading having to run Finn 2nd (he's not good after watching another dog). Upon making my way to the ring, I saw Naci looking slightly panicked and telling me, "Kristi says you have to walk the first half, give me Finn!" I handed off Finn with instructions not to let him kill Cinder (who he was also holding) and ran out to review the course. Running the course I always felt a step behind, but Finn was a good boy, Cinder held her own and we ended up finishing in 4th place. Pretty ribbon and plaque for Betty and a shirt for me. Good boy Finnamon!
Vic was so great all weekend. No bars down (aside from one warm up jump), one missed weave entry (Euro Jumpers), one missed contact (frame in GP semis, I forgot to say "touch"). The important thing is he showed me more than enough speed to run in the elite group. His time in GP semis was more than enough to make Finals (28.5). I'd started leading out, not realizing a jump was done and when I started moving again, he thought we were going and I thought he was breaking his start, so off to an awkward start we went. It was not the lead out I'd planned and when he was on the frame (#3) I was thinking about needing to do a fc, instead of thinking to say "touch". He still needs to hear the word on his frame, because we just don't have the miles with the new behavior to trust him coming down enough. I did think he was in, but the judge saw otherwise. After the frame it was about as nice a run as I think we can do right now. I LOVED his turn for the line to the teeter and he was so good about the quick released dogwalk and teeter. Steeplechase was another near miss for us, just .07 out of the Finals! An optometrist friend was kind enough to point out that .07 is faster than the blink of an eye, Mike wanted to know if I'd held his contacts or done that "thing where you face him and he adds a stride" (uh NO! And when did you start listening to me when I'm talking agility!) and another friend tried to get .07 on his stopwatch, which he couldn't make happen. ;-) SOOOOO close! Vic wasn't used to me dropping the reigns like I did and did throw in at least 3 unnecessary strides, plus one wider than ideal turn. I know we could get .75 off of that run right now. I think the freakish success of some friends young dogs (Yay to Tori and Rev and Daisy and Solar for winning Steeplechase and GP!), threw off my initial feelings about the weekend. Vic really is looking great and he's not quite 3 yet, so hopefully we'll have many Finals in our future. :-) Right now, I'm planning on making the trip wherever Cynosports goes next year. I don't see how I can skip it, I'm too competitive to stay home and watch with a dog as great as Vic. There are rumors that the games will be returning to Scottsdale in 2012, which I hope are true, but I can't wait, so I guess I'm going to have to start psyching myself up about flying Vic in a little more than 10 months. The show was a LOT of fun, so many great teams to watch, they finally figured out the perfect set up and I think not having to walk by the vendors all the time made it feel a little less commercial. If I had one complaint it would that I'd hoped for more technical courses. The one threadle was taken out of Jumpers because of the footing in one of the rings. I thought the courses in general were a little boring, but I suspect most wouldn't complain. ;-)
Max is doing great and was super happy to see me when I came home. Big surprise was how hysterically happy Starlet was to see me. She was jumping straight up in the air, giving endless kisses and squealing with delight. It was the best greeting I've ever gotten from any of my dogs. :-)
First day of the games, we did a family pic of the stateside Touchango crew. I hope Julia sends the pics she got, but here's what I stole from Carl's facebook (you'll need to click on it to see it bigger). Vic's sister Stardust is 2 dogs to the left of Vic. Yes, cousin Dewley (Stir's brother) is a dilute. It looks like the b/w dogs are shunning him a bit. ;-)
And here's the video of Vic's runs, accidently erased was his super solid European Standard.
Next up for us is a 3 day Masters only show at Happy Dog. Vic probably won't see any equipment before then, but I still hope to finish up his ADCh there. We need 2 Standards, so it's pretty good odds. :-)

Not fully functioning right now, I'm still clinging to denial that this time tomorrow I will most likely be in AZ. I'm excited to go, but just so overwhelmed that it is here. So while I should be organizing for tomorrow, I thought some pictures from last week must go up now! ;-)
Last Monday's Betty's grand old aussie, Patches, made her departure. Super good girlie, I'm sure Finn is missing her. Must be so weird for him, to have his best friend fade away these past few months. I do think in the big picture, Finn will be quite happy being an only dog. Such a sad time, the next day one of my Arroyo Grande friends said goodbye to her old girl who was diagnosed with cancer the same week Max was. 2009 has not been a good year for a lot of my doggie friends, way too many goodbyes. Hopefully, Max will make sure to wait until at least 2010. Speaking of Max, the old bastard took my dinner off the coffee table last night (NEVER does that) and when he saw me see him, proceeded to eat faster (that's normal for Max). No remorse from Max despite my geniune pissiness. I love Max so much and am going to miss him this week.
Anyway, when we heard Patches left, both Kristi and I thought a beach walk was in order with video camera and her kick-ass camera. Great time was had by all. :-)
And some pics of the fun:That's 4 dogs on one big stick. :-)
Max is looking so good!Sizzle usually ended up with the stick, but not without a fight. Go Max!
Starlet likes going to the beach, she was the first one out the door. :-)
What could Star be staring at?
Gee I wonder...
Vic joined in the fun too (like he could be denied).

I always get nervous before a big show. I'm not nervous when I'm actually there and running, but I definitely am before leaving. For the past few weeks, I've been stuck on the reasons why I could live in last year forever. The odds of Finn repeating his PNS win aren't high. First, rarely do teams repeat, then there's the competition (Stir's brother is in Perf. 22"!) and we have to make it through the quarterfinals (all those damn up contacts). I would really like for "Powered by Fear" to make team finals again, but I've been in the PVP Team finals for the past 3 years, 4 years in a row is a bit greedy... Then of course, Max isn't going, first time I'll ever do a Nationals without him. He's done so much there, DAM Finals, never less than the semi's in GP, all the performance finals, podium placements 2 years in team, many individual placements in team classes and last year winning the Vet's All-Around. To say it will be weird to be there without him is an understatement. It's also weird not to be taking Starlet. She's my DAM good dog and I was really looking forward to doing team with her.
Anyway, I was focusing on the things that are in the past, instead of looking forward to what this Nationals is and reminding myself about how good Max is doing. (Max is doing really good, FAT, really FAT, but really happy). This Nationals is most likely Finn's final trip, possibly his last BIG show. We have had so much success. This is going to be a special show for us and I feel very lucky to have this chance with him. It will be really nice just having Finn and Vic. It will let me have more time with him, since Vic can go in a crate while Finn is out. And of course there's Vic. We had a good time last year, but just did PSJ and Perf. Euro Jumpers. This feels like his first Nationals. He's such a good boy, I'm thrilled to get to run him against so many amazing dogs. I'd love to make finals with him, but seeing as we're going through quarterfinals, I'm not banking on this being our year. ;-) Anything can happen and Vic is definitely a special boy, so I wouldn't rule anything out. Regardless of results, I'm on two kick-ass teams with kick-ass teammates. I expect to have lots of fun, see lots of amazing runs, hopefully buy some great pics and see lots of people I don't see often enough. I can't wait for it to begin, but I still have so much to do to get ready!

I exist! Time just got away from me, rather, I think by not writing it felt like time was kind of standing still. I'm loving this time. Max is still doing great (fat as a house, so back on an unappreciated diet), Starlet is happy playing the role of Mike's buddy (never gets off the couch when I have keys in my hand, but runs to the door when she sees Mike is heading out), Vic continues to blow my mind with what he does so easily, heck even Gari the Goddamn Cat is doing good. She's back in the house most of the time, lounging around and being her self-absorbed kitty self. I'm excited about seeing what Nationals holds in store for Finn and Vic. They both have the potential to make finals.
In my mind, Max is going to die after Nationals. Now, this would be true regardless of the lymphoma, but still, I'm kind of dreading the milestone's arrival. I know I'll be happy once I'm in Scottsdale,but it's bittersweet. Last year I had 4 dogs going and Max was running, heck he was winning the Veteran's All-Around. Hard to believe that was just a year ago. Damn time is going by far too quickly these days, but they are great days. I can't believe I leave for Scottsdale in a little over a week. It's so soon!
Last weekend Stephanie came up for our Nationals tuneup workshop. It was courses and more courses and more courses. Many from the Bay Team Regionals, which both Stephanie and Geri didn't attend, so they were interested in seeing how those courses ran. It was a tiring couple days, but Vic did great. I learned that his 2o/2o on the frame isn't totally solid yet (duh), especially when I'm rotating. The other big epiphany was Vic is always faster when I am moving. Another "duh" moment, but I have to remember that sometimes choosing the rc option will keep me moving better than a serp or fc choice.
Here's the Grand Prix day, I think if Vic had theme music it would involve tribal drums:
Here's the first half of the second day, when we did Steeplechase courses:
Sunday afternoon, JWW courses, I ran Cousin Stir on a couple exercises when Terra came up lame. He's really fun to play with.

Max is jumping in the car again. :-) The past couple days I've also had my special couch dog back as well. He's ignoring my carefully placed stairs and jumping on it himself. I fell asleep on the couch yesterday and woke up after falling on the ground, because Max had pushed me off. That's my boy! I still do see some overall weakening, but these were things I thought would never happen again. This reprieve filled ride can be scary, but I'm appreciating every moment of it. Love my Max.

Good show this weekend, but the dirt does seem to wear me out more than running on grass does. Probably doesn't help the weekend was a warm one (Saturday was hellish HOT!!!). It was the first show for Vic with his 2o/2o frame, no problems at all there. :-) I do need to do some work to speed up his dogwalk and I have a small list of other things to work on before Scottsdale. Vic and Finn were really lovely all weekend. The courses were a bit boring, I'm all for a flowing fast course, but I wanted more challenges for my last show before Nationals.
Even on the simple courses, I found special ways to screw up, especially in Snooker. Finn and I had a low Q rate on the weekend, but I think I reestablished he's not to "jump" off of his contacts. Of course, learning that lesson brought out the "am I stupid and ugly" aussie in him, but by the last couple classes he was barking on course at me like his normal self. He won both PNS (of course he gets a bye for the year it's going to move far away) and PSJ, Qed with a 4th in a Standard (that was his "you're mean for making me stop" run) and won Sunday's Jumpers. I think the heat was also getting to him, plus it was a LOT of runs.
Vic was really lovely. The only class he didn't Q in was Steeplechase and that was a total handler muck up. Snooker had bobbles both days, day one in the close (I could have sworn he was committed to the tunnel!) and day two in the opening. He won Jumpers on Saturday, Qed on Sunday. He took 3rd in Grand Prix, was 3rd in Gamblers on Saturday and 2nd on Sunday. Best of all he finished his MAD by winning Standard both days! Woohoo! I should be more excited about the MAD, but he's now only 2 Standards away from his ADCh, so my mind has already gone there...

Max is on fire today, looking great, enthusiastic, happy, pushy, he's really Max at his best. I didn't cry nearly as much as I expected today. I tried to focus on my good fortune in being able to have this run, to know what it was while it was happening. I'm blown away by my good luck. Aside from my ultimate dream that Max would live as he is now forever. And I did spend much energy in the past few years trying to contact the devil to make a deal, unfortunately, I think the devil knows I'm going to hell anyway, so no need to make a deal on his end. ;-) Anyway, the reality of life is Max is going to die. If it's not the lymphoma, it will be something else. What the lymphoma gave us was a timeline, a wake up call about how precious this time with Max is. It even gave us a preview of what is to come, of how much Max will fade before he leaves, but it also showed us how his soul won't ever change. We saw old, sick Max and then *poof*, within days he became the Max of old, really the Max of old, like Max 7 years ago. We had our dog with his seasoned, but still super clear old mind, all that knowledge, but a much younger version. His stamina crushed the younger dogs as well as Mike and me. Amazing. He continues to do well, giving him time to rest has helped.
Today he didn't rest much. His was the first run of the day for me. He was great, tried to bite me after the first teeter. ;-) After the run, some incredible kind GVDC friends gave me this amazing poster with pictures of Max for his retirement. People are signing it, I started to read them, but that really made me cry. The kindness was just so amazing, I'm so blessed to have such great friends around me. Max was quite pleased with himself. I could hear him barking, demanding "MORE COOKIES" nearly all day, when he wasn't with me. At one point he busted out of his x-pen and just started working the scene. No hyper running around, in fact when he trotted by, my mind thought, "hey that's Max", like I would mentally acknowledged a human friend. He went to the river with Sizzle and would have stayed there MUCH longer, but goddamn it was humid and hot down there. He had a great day, which has ended in some pot roast. He's still not sleeping, he's sucking on big wooly, his favorite toy and his toy sucking is something that is just so Max. Vic is CRASHED out, as is Starlet (who hung with Mike today). I will be soon. Max is on fire. Love my Max.

We do need this rain and it's been a perfect rain, my only complaint is why couldn't it rain on days that I'm not supposed to be working! Doesn't Mother Nature know it's important that I continue to make $? Apparently watering the earth is more important than my fiscal status. Sigh. So the past couple days have been spent snuggling with Max. We've rigged the bed so he has steps to get on it and he's figured out how to use his front end to make getting on the couch easier. I think he's been touching me for 90% of this rain time (he's presently lying with his head on my feet as I type). He does seem better than he did last week, I think our normally busy schedule is tiring for him, but as long as he wants to go, he gets to. I'm still not sure how I'm going to make it through his run on Saturday. I can't even talk about it without crying, but I know how incredible lucky I am to have a chance for a final time in the ring (plan is still to run around looking for tunnels). He's not as fast as he was just a month ago, so I should be safe from his corrective teeth. I'm sure he's going to be annoyed by my stupid plan, but that thought entertains me. ;-)

Woohoo! Finn's also doing really well in PIII Jumpers, nearly 30 points ahead of the next closest dog and no lower than #3 in all the classes. We have double games (aside from Pairs) this weekend at DrivenDogs, but that's our last show until after Nationals (skipping DART, since it's on Mike's birthday weekend). That's going to be a lot of runs this weekend, thank goodness Max is only doing the one day of Gamblers, so I'm basically running 2 dogs (Finn and Vic). :-)Points Owner Dog Breed 112 Mah, Stuart Jet Border Collie 76 Eizember, Joleen A.
