Bizarro world continued on today.
The land blind was 475 yards!! I was a little freaked out because Miikka has always had stopping issues. No way, no how, does she do this blind I thought.
She did it! AND...stopped.on.every.whistle.
She was called back to the water blind along with 17 other dogs of the original 50+ that started the trial. It was a very hard, very long blind in a stiff cross-wind. A number of dogs picked up. Miikka was doing great until the last piece of land and she decided she was going to play it safe by staying in the water and not get out on the point. She sliced past the point, and I knew it wouldn't be good enough to play. Only 7 dogs ended up doing the blind and being called to the last series.
But I was SOOO happy to see her running like the dog she was last year and she was all smiles too.
