Tess’s Summer Agility Running

Greetings,
Tess and I have traveled twice this summer to Hattiesburg Mississippi. The ride is long (10 hrs towing the 5th wheel) but well worth it.
There, they have a great indoor air conditioned venue.  Recently, we attended an AKC trial at the venue and, with the help of my good friend Carolyn Arias, Tess and I were quite successful. We had our first double Q. Which means she qualified with no mistakes in both Standard and Jumpers courses on the same day. It was a great feeling.

What’s changed for us?
I have been reading That Winning Feeling the night before I run her and it has been giving me a much better mind set. We imagine a run that is calm and clean. I have a mantra before I go in “Calm Like Tiger” and take a deep calming breath. Tess’s eyes have refrained from spinning and we have become a dance team.

Check out the videos of our double Q !

This the first Q (Standard)
This is the second Q ( Jumpers)
