Entered our first HRC started test last weekend at Salt Valley. It has been a long wait for me with what happened last year about this time. Some of you may remeber I lost my pup "Oakley" that I had been training at 8 months to a car accident. He is the reason I got into this game and miss him so much. I started over just a couple weeks later with my new pup "Strike". He is just a couple weeks over a year old now and couldn't be happier with how he is progressing. He did very well both days and we were able to get passes on both Sat. and Sunday. Special thanks to my buddies Kody, Rob and Cory for the help, also the guys at Salt Valley. Here is a pic with me and my buddy "Strike" with his first 2 Started ribbons!

My plan is to finish up his SHR, then work towards running seasoned this summer. We have started training towards seasoned but he isn't quite ready. Plus it will give us some more experience in a test environment since these were both of our first tests.

Thank you Keith! Your young pup did great as well! Hope to see you soon and hopefully be running seasoned at your clubs test this summer.
