Our normal Monty Monday post has been replaced today with a recap of our weekend at the Grand Teton County Fair. Monty Monday will return next week! :)
Saturday morning the fair hosted an agility event and I decided to take Harlow along. It has been two months since we practiced and I felt she needed a
break from squirrel hunting challenge.
Of course, I was easily distracted the moment we got there - the horse show was going on.
We knew we weren't in Arizona anymore the second we got to the ring - right outside of the exit gate was the cattle washing station for the petting zoo....

Mooooo.... |
Thankfully the course was easy, a long S pattern, but I made sure to study it carefully. So did Harlow.
|
After da tunnel is a sharp right. I got dis, da Momma. |
Unfortunately, I have no photos of Harlow doing her courses. Let's just say the first one she decided a freestyle pattern was the optimal way to go. Our second time through she did just fine! We only messed up because I missed the last jump - a skinny little thing that blended in with the cattle washing pens.
|
How could you, da Momma? |
Since this wasn't an actual trial, they only gave ribbons for clear rounds and participation. I'm still pretty proud of our participation ribbon. We can now say we performed at a county fair!
Of course, to Harlow? The day was perfect - zoomies and lots of loving from strangers!
