Well Grace and I tried obedience last weekend. We failed. I am having a really hard time keeping Grace's focus with me-in the ring. She is so interested in checking out every little noise and movement outside the ring, she loses her focus on what we are doing. Our off leash heeling was almost non existant. Anytime someone moved outside the ring she had to stop to see what they are doing. Oh well. There were good points too, thoguh. Her stand for exam was perfect. She only barked once, and that was during the sit stay, when the wind rattled the building awning rather loudly. Her down stay was good too. So we will continue to work on focus, and heeling, and hopefully someday it will come together. In the meantime, she is certainly doing her part in trying to keep the wonderfulness of the corgis a secret. I do have to say, no matter the end result, I love the little pooper.
On the other hand, she showed in conformation and had a blast earning another Select point. I really dont have a plan to try to earn her Grand Championship, but occasionally just for fun becasue she loves it, why not.

I love your line about her keeping the wonderfulness of Cardis a secret. I think Ziggy is in that campaign with her - in the performance trial ring, at least ;)
