Talking First Qualifying Score

Samson received an 87 today in Novice Rally A and received his first qualifying score. This is the second trial he has been entered in. Our biggest issue was still the tight lead, but he improved a lot from our last trial. At least his nose wasn't plastered to the ground the entire time. This show was indoors, which Samson really seemed to prefer.

We go back tomorrow for another Novice Rally A class at the end of the day.

Didn't qualify on second day

Samson was pretty distracted on the second day of the show. There were people sitting on the side of the ring and he became fixated on them instead of me.

Samson received a Non-Qualifying score because of a consistently tight lead. At least we got one score out of our three trials. And the best part - he is exhausted!! After two days of showing, he hasn't moved off the couch. It should be a quiet night.

Those things happen. Sometimes it's really hard to keep their attention. Keep practicing and you'll get it next time!
