Zandra Dixon, unfortunately could not be at the trial, but got Ansie to run Shadow for her.

Zandra says:-.... Shadow, at the age of almost 8 achieved her FIRST Qualification, ever, at a SADAA event.  

 

On a personal note: the various compliments I have received on shadows performance are directly attributable to Agility Academy trainers.  And I would like to say thank you!  

 

AA brings much joy to me and the kids

Shereen Korpel and Rocky got a 3rd place in Gamblers.

A 3rd and 2nd  place in Agility 2

A 3rd in Jumping 3 and a 2nd in Jumping 3 with a Silver medal.

Zsa-Zsa came  close to qualifying in two different jumping rounds, with just one downed bar per round. She wound up second in both rounds.  She eliminated only twice during the entire weekend, which means I am learning how to control that fabulous speed.  Overall performance: 3rd  overall Grade 1 dog.  She was well on track for a qualification in gamblers, but then bombed out in the gamble itself.

 

MARIZELLE STRYDOM AND ALFIE AND SHARON SMALLBONE WITH JODI ALSO COMPETED, BUT RESULTS ARE NOT KNOWN. I DO KNOW BOTH ENJOYED THE WEEKEND AND HAD SOME LOVELY ROUNDS EVEN IF NOT CLEAR. WELL DONE TO BOTH OF YOU
