did not stay for call backs to third, but looked like dogs were doing well on double land blind with poison bird
not sure of this but to the 4th in Q 2-5-6-7-9
a winner was determined
This was it for Mootsie Ted? Wow, what a great way to end. She is a fabulous dog and has had a wonderful career. You and the Mootster have been a great team. Give her a bone for me! Congratulations on the Blue!
Mootsie is having so much fun that I may run her in a couple more trials this year. She is whining and prancing on the line, more than she ever did as a youngster. It really warms my heart to see her this way.
All I know was she absolutely SMACKED the marks on both the land and water - they had hen pheasants on the land marks in areas that smelt of sage brush, yet it didn't matter, she ran out to the bird and picked them up like it was no big deal...she won that trial hands down and I am glad I got to see her run. And yes she was whining in the holding blind...she was ready to go, I was a little worried that the big swim in the 4th might take it's toll with the heavy cross wind, but it didn't phase her, she held her line, shouldered into the wind and stepped on the mark...amazing!
Congratulations Ted - how many AA points does that give the girl? Keep running her as long as she is having fun.
Also - congrats to other friends who did well - Lainee, David, Larry and Jeff.
