Chewie's other agility run - Excellent Std - NQ

It actually was a good run. No errors allowed in Excellent, and he missed the weave entry on the 1st try (and bobble on then 2nd try, but we already had NQ'd). Otherwise, he ran a faultless run! :D

Oh, the "traps" in this course that snagged many dogs were - the chute right off the bat - a surprising number of refusals.
The more obvious were going in the wrong end of the green tunnel (it was horseshoe shaped and when approached, either end looked inviting!),
and the jump next to the dog walk start - they had to swing wide from the previous red wing jump d/t it's angle, and some couldn't get their dog back in soon enough.
Also, 2 contacts ( A frame and teeter) had a jump placed directly in front of it as the dog exited the contact, but it never was the jump that they were supposed to take!

There were way more failures at these weaves than you would think, so maybe there was something trickier going on than appeared...or else dogs were just tired...?



Hope you enjoy the viewing, we did have a fun time running it!
oh - this was the course I barely got to walk - I am grateful I made it. Almost screwed up at the table, but caught myself on the wrong side and switched before I released Chewie! 8O

What does NQ mean, anyway?

NQ = nonqualifying
Q = qualifying

Every class has it's rules about what is a Q, if you don't meet those, you are an NQ :wink:

So in this class - no errors (knocked bars, refusal, run bys, missing contacts) are allowed. You also have to make time - SCT (standard course time) is figured by measuring the course and computing feet per second minimums. Novice is allowed the most time, then open, and excellent the least time.
