2 Double Qs

Taylor earned his second and third double Qs toward his PAX2 this weekend. He had nice, smooth fast runs and we felt like we were having fun again after the pressure of getting the last couple of QQs for our PAX earlier in the fall.

The runs also counted as the fifth and sixth legs towards Taylor's MJP4 and his sixth and seventh legs toward his MXP3. His total number of double Qs for the AKC trialing year is 15.

The biggest accomplishment of the weekend, though, goes to Samurai, who managed to stay pretty calm (for him) and maintain his composure pretty decently (for him) over the two days of trialing.

For Sami, this was a pretty hard goal and we are very heartened by his improvement. Many times the hardest training jobs are those that don't earn ribbons.
