Anyway, I submitted Stout's most recent video to her yesterday:
Upon viewing it, she gave me a critique that ended with the best (agility) compliment I've ever gotten:
"... very nice handling!"
Yes, Silvia Trkman complimented my handling! I was giddy! :) So please excuse this bragging :)
This is the Silvia Trkman I'm talking about:
I feel like I should add this to my agility resume or something :)
You do have nice handling! But I guess my compliment doesn't count! LOL!
ReplyDeleteBut I do know what you mean...years ago now, Wilson and I were training with Carrie Jones and ran a tough sequence. When we were done, she told me she had nothing to add....We had pretty much nailed it and she would not change a thing! Yep, I was proud!
Somehow, those kind of compliments have never been handed to Jimmy and me :-)
Thank you! Of course your compliment counts!
DeleteAnd I think you handle Jimmy quite nicely :) I know I wouldn't look as good as you do handling such a fast dog!
Kudos! Love when he walks by the camera crunching the bottle. :) Seriously, Stout is looking good!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I just had to leave that part in... Cracked me up. Half our training time is spent with him doing stuff like that... :)
DeleteWell-deserved!!! You are a very nice handler, Merinda! I love watching you handle Porter and I know you're doing right by Stout!
ReplyDeleteThanks! We'll see... :)
