MACH Skye!

What a bad blogger I have been.... It's been a week now since Skye earned his MACH at the Mile Hi Golden Retriever show. On Friday, we got a double Q to put us at 19 total, so the pressure was on. Saturday we ran Standard first and were clean. Jumpers was going great, but after a turn from the weaves Skye dropped a bar. I could hear the big "ohhhhhhh" from the crowd to confirm that the bar went down.

Sunday, we started with Jumpers and Skye had a great clean run. The Standard course for Sunday was challenging and I wondered if we could pull it off - I decided to try and breath and go at it with a clear head, and he ran Great and got the MACH! Yeah baby!
Here's the video of that JWW and STD.

So nice to get the MACH title and be able to just run and not worry about double Qs for a while!

MACH Skye has such a nice ring to it! Great runs on challenging courses. BTW, both Summit and Slick dropped that same bar on Saturday after the weaves. The dirt was about 6" deep with divots where the take off would be for a BC.

Congratulations. I just started my first dog (and first agility dog) last year in agility, and I dream of one day making it all the way to the MACH with her. What an awesome accomplishment for you and Skye. Great work!
