Dave brought 3 dogs to this year’s West Coast Open held in Paso Robles. While Elektra is no stranger to these big events, it was a first for both Tempo and Tess to compete at something like this.
Friday:
While Tess had a refusal in Rd 1 for her only run at the trial, she did great with all the big event chaos. Elektra and Tempo made it to Speedstakes Finals in the 20” class with Tempo finishing 6th in Rd 1 out of approx 100 dogs! Both had great Finals runs, and Tempo got to stand on his first Podium, taking 2nd place in the Finals! Auntie Elektra finished a strong 5th on a tricky course. #hatbackwards
Speedstakes 20” Podium - Tempo 2nd place
Saturday -
Both Elektra and Tempo made it to Games Finals (Gamblers). Tempo was a bit too exhuberant and miss the on-course bonus but Elektra nailed it and finished 6th overall in Games.
Elektra was rock solid in Masters Series, finishing 4th in a tricky Masters Jumping that only 12 20” dogs survived with a score; a clean run in Masters Agility gave her 3rd place overall in the Masters Series. #hugsonabox
