A bit of a break...

Well, after being in Florida for a week, during which time "Uncle Jack" and "Auntie Susan" made sure that Sarah did not get bored, I finally went to see Sarah on Friday the 19th.  Unfortunately, I found her with a sore left front foot...so, no ride, just treats and treatment for the night.  Then, on Sunday the 21st, I went back to find her sound and ready to go!  We just hit the basics, making sure that the soundness was for real.  Everything checked out.  So, back I went tonight for a review of "skills and drills" with two lope poles.  We worked on walking, jogging and finally loping over the poles.  A couple of hits on the walk-overs, but none on the jogs and lopes.  She placed her feet well on the lope-overs, too; atta girl!  Then we worked on simple lead changes on a figure-8.  Finally, side-passing over the poles.  This went just peachy.  I think that we are close to being back on track.  Cubes and a kiss for Sarah.
Until next time,
Kirsten
