Additionally, Dean walked away with three points toward his LCX this weekend, and Fleura earned five points toward her LCX2. Unfortunately, she had a flare up of an earlier injury in her last run and she’s benched for the next month. I’m glad Afghans have enough sense not to run themselves until they are well and truly broken the way Ibizans do. I saw Fleura stumble-hop weirdly with her rear (injury was to her knee) and my immediate instinct was to cringe because Beezers will basically run until their leg is dangling off, and it was only halfway through the course. Instead, she pulled up and stopped, located me, and trotted off the course directly to me. I was flabbergasted and very relieved I didn’t have to watch her run herself into real brokenness.
Hela also had a puppy run yesterday and had a good time meeting lots of people. She’s decided she’s really into the lure coursing game and was losing her little brain watching the other dogs. I’m definitely looking forward to her getting started.
Meanwhile, in Sweden, Ori had a great show day with a BOB puppy and honorary prize, and a puppy Group Two. Very proud of this little man!
