This is our third time at Charleville-Mézière!
Our first time was when we were in grade 1, at the agility by night, the second time in grade 2, and this time in grade 3!
Now, I’m disappointed by our performance this weekend. We are almost always disqualified on the same error: our inability to do outs properly.
Otherwise, a nice competition, nice courses, nice peoples and in special guest: the sun!

The judge was Hervé Chaillou from France.
Disqualified because I had to help her on the out after the A-frame.
Disqualified on at the out after the long jump. She doesn’t do it properly whenever she needs to put in a little effort.
Again, out, missing it and disqualified. We also never succeeded in finishing the weave pole, and we are not the only ones; this is incredibly difficult for the dogs. My theory is that they somehow feel like they are going into the tunnel that is near, and they get out at some point.

The judge was Vincent Montaigné from France.
The second jump was an out, and guess what? She didn’t do it properly. Yes, I don’t show it well because I need to run forward to handle the long jump.
This was the third time in a row that we were disqualified for the same mistake, this time on the second jump. I was really disappointed and annoyed; the rest of the run was a mess and a collection of failure.
At least she did a two-out sequence and succeeded.
This time, she failed to do the In, again on the second jump. The thing is, I’m not the only one building frustration; Kaïa is also questioning what she did wrong.
We failed to handle the weave pole, she happily ran into the tunnel, and I completely failed to correct it. Other than that, we cleared the rest of the course nicely, and she even managed to do a difficult out.
This time, we are disqualified on a tunnel discrimination. This is more normal, I guess. Nice weave pole entry!
