Darbi WON the Open at the trial in Colorado this week-end!!!! Her first US Open placement is a win and I'm over the moon.
Darbi and I have had a lot of bad luck this year and I asked Kenny run her hoping to change her luck.
It worked!
Big thanks to Kenny as usual. He is behind all our successes in the past couple years. When he got Darbi he told me "she's a nice dog, just not very well trained". A blow to my ego, yes, as I had done most her training myself, but it opened my eyes.
And Pedro was THIRD in another stakes race this week-end. He ran hard, but was battling on the front end in fractions that were too fast for him and he tired at the end.
Three goals for Darbi this year now:
Qualify for US National
Finish her Canadian titles
Have a good showing at the Canadian National
I have a full waiting list for Darbi's fall litter, but it looks like the litter will have to wait until we see if Darbi qualifies for the US National or not.
Pictures to come...
