Retirement run?

Jun 07, 2017 07:41

Razor has sort of been in semi-retirement for almost a year now. Close to a year? something like that. He's not been willing to weave a set of 12 poles at least since we've moved to Poodletopia, so for at least that long I've not entered him in any trials. I want to. He loves it. But it just seemed moot -- ya know?

So this will be fun:

This sounds great! What venue is this with the Tunnelers Class?

It's a special "just for fun" USDAA class. No awards or placements. They're doing that more now for dogs who aren't old enough to run, or aren't quite ready... like confidence courses BUT any dog can run them (that's registered in USDAA

That sounds perfect. I should see if they're offering them around here or maybe in the east for this summer.

Yay can't wait to see the Raze do his retirement runs!! I showed Panic this past weekend and it was clear he was telling me he's ready to retire, too...so bittersweet. Same thing as Razor, he won't do the weaves anymore.

Weaves are ouchy! At least according to Razor. I don't ever want him to do something that hurts. Those big strong crazy boys... they don't take good care of their bodies (but then... neither do I...)

Panic agrees, I'm glad that he decided to just stop doing them though instead of hurting himself trying!

He really has been an A+ best barky speed machine agility dog. I still remember when I first found your blog and couldn't believe the greatness of Raze. I'm glad he can still kick on in Vetrans

I'm really excited for you to meet him in the loud and hairy "flesh" (so to speak). I think you'll dig him, and he's so friggin friendly these days.. he might petition to go home w/ you.

Oh that's a great idea. I thought about doing that with the girls. There is so much NADAC here to play. I just never got around to it. Have a blast.

I think the older dogs just like doing whatever. Plus Raze had a lot of usdaa buddies.
