Today was the first flyball tournament since October. Freddie didn't do as well as he normally does, but I'm thinking it's because of the long break. We only had a couple of practices since then as well so he's a little rusty. :) Or at least that's what I'm going with. ;)
But he did do well, running 3 times in one heat to pull off the win against another team. Ok, he had to run 3 times because he went around the jumps the first time, and then dropped the ball before the last jump the 2nd time, but the third time was clean, if not a little slow. :)
I brought the flyball box home with me today so I could work on his box turns, as well as start training Pacey on the box. Freddie does not have a good swimmer's turn at all - never has. He kinda likes to *splat* on the box more than anything else, which isn't good for his shoulders. So I'm going to see what I can do about that. Since I know he loves it, I'd like to keep him in the game as long as he's physically able to do it. Blowing out his shoulders won't really help that. ;)
We're both pretty tired right now so I'm going to go relax a bit before heading over to my cousin's house for dinner. I think it's going to be an early night for me!!
