Getting ready for trial...
So after some discussion, after a long few months off.. ;-( ... Gwen and I are aiming for a June trial and our BH. We have hopes of completing our PSA PDC this summer also. We are keeping our fingers crossed on getting our bite work back up to snuff. We took a real backslide with all the time off. I have to say I am very excited though and we are working extra hard..

Re: Getting ready for trial...
It will be my first ever... I hope some nice person takes pictures.. I don't think my husband will go. He gets this glazed look on his face and I can see his eyes rolling into the back of his head when I start talking about it.

Re: Getting ready for trial...
good luck, we pretty much are hoping that she will behave and if we lose some points here and there, no big deal.. she's great in crowds and with people unless of course I am present. It remains to be seen how she will handle it all..

Re: Getting ready for trial...
lmao... I was prepared to hit your place up in July like last year.. you should have seen the look on my husbands face when I said something about May.. his eyes rolled back up into his head so far I had to joggle them back out by smacking him on the back of the head.Christie M wrote:The third weekend in May is almost June....... just sayin....

the actual trial date was chosen by cory and since he is the boss he is the boss... I'll be paying closer attention next year though as I absolutely love to travel to TN.. (honestly I don't even know where the trial is in June ....shhh don't tell Cory he'll give me the look) I just know we are working our behinds off to catch up ... lol.. and still pray everyday that she doesn't decide she is going to eat me or the judge when they decide to pet her... omg, if she thinks that she should be getting food she will duck her head as if to say "uh NO, don't pet me where's my treat"

I'll be at Cory's next weekend. Are you going to be at training? Does his club meet SAT or SUN?
