First Premier Q for the 2017 NAC


Just had to use the image of this sweater this week — it is all the rage on Facebook.  This was a sweater at JC Penney’s last season, and some Vizsla person discovered it.  There has been a social media FRENZY and people are raiding JCP for this sweater and selling and shipping to V owners all over the country.  Duh.  We got one too!

The qualifying period for 2017 National Agility Championship is off and running.  This year, the American Kennel Club is requiring:

— 7 Double Qs (or QQs as we often refer to them)

— A combination of 3 Premier STD & 3 Premier JWW may replace up to 3 QQs (and the STD & JWW passes do not need to come on the same day.

— 550 MACH points

We will see how we do!  The qualification period runs from December 1 thru November 30, 2017.  Hopefully, we can make it happen, and Karma is off to a LEAPING start so far!

This weekend at the Palmer Divide trial, Karms was able to turn in two Jumpers Qs AND a Premier JWW Q!  She was also awarded 3rd place ribbon for one of her regular JWW Qs AND the Premier one!  Hopefully, we can Q in STD at a future trial and lower our 7 QQ requirement down to 6!  And on top of that, she kicked of the new qual year with 28 MACH points this weekend!  Gotta say, that feels pretty darn good 🙂
