Glider doing rally at the 2010 IWSCA national specialty

I have been doing foundation obedience training with Glider since she was 6 weeks old.  She is a blast to train and very smart.  I have to be very careful what I teach her from the very beginning as she picks it up so quickly and then she thinks she knows everything.  Even though I have been training her since she was a baby, I'm taking my time in getting her into the obedience ring.  While she loves it, she is still very distracted.  She is also very busy and she doesn't think stays are any fun at all.  We did make our debut in the rally ring on April 3 & 4, 2010.  She qualified both days and even earned 3rd place on Sunday.  We still have a lot of work to do before she is ready for novice obedience but we are having a lot of fun.  On April 30th, Glider earned her 3rd rally novice leg and her RN title at the 2010 IWS national specialty.  She earned 4th place.
