Weekend trials and tribulations Part 2

Well after posting a couple of pictures below I guess I should elaborate on the weekend that *wasn't*. Long story short - Raven: 12 runs and 1 Clear (and no a First place does not make up for it!) Cypher: 10 runs and 4 clears (a 2nd and a 4th and 6th and something else). We had a bar knocking revival in Raven's camp and in Cypher's we had two very nice runs and two extremely painful tooth pulling experiences that were clear but were so much work I actually wondered if we'd made the standard course time. Quite shameful really when it is a Border Collie on the other end of the leash and you have to wonder if you made the time! So no more lingering on that - Cypher's bug bear at the moment in trials is not being able to focus enough to finish 12 weavers. And Raven has been working on her jumping this week - though I am resting her up since last Wednesday, felt she could do with a break from jumping and we'll just work her Obedience for a bit.
