Not too interested in conformation showing at this point (maybe one day) - however went for the working seminar with John Soares (who won the 2010 AWDF IPO championships) and Butch Henderson. Unfortunately the seminar was Tuesday and Wednesday and the IPO trial was not until Saturday, so I wasn't able to stay and watch Dieter's dam compete.
Here are a few photos from the trip/seminar -
Dieter loves hotels apparently - sleeping on a bed is WAY better then in a crate!
With John Soares giving some OB advice/instruction
More heeling exercises under John's supervision
Dieter is a bit wild in protection (not to mention I can barely hang onto him when he is on a harness)...note beet red face and bracing stance :-S
On a bite pillow with John
First time in a year that Dieter's breeder (Jason) and his TD have seen him. I think he passed his inspection ;-)
A little bite work with Jason before the long drive home
Who knows perhaps we will compete in the IPO trial one day!
