Sounds like quite the experience!!!

I would have died to go, it sounds like so much fun. My Aunt ended up going with her Lab who celebrated her 11th Birthday there on Saturday!!

That's quite an accomplishment...going to Nationals with an 11 year old Lab. I bet she had a great time, and I hope they did well. There were a lot of senior dogs there, and it was wonderful to watch them all run. It's always heartwarming to see an older dog running and enjoying themselves on an agility course!

Congrats on your very good showing. High score considering the competion.
I too am disappointed that it wasn't televised. Was there any professional
video taken at all? I've only seen agility on Tv , but sounds like it would
be great to see in person.

Yes, the CBS Evening News will be having a story on it. Their reporter, Steve Hartman, I believe is his name, the guy who does "Everybody Has a Story" reports was there. He was there on Sunday, and they were there to film the Hybrid round, Challengers Round and Finals. I think it will be very good, as he's very talented (and quite cute in person!). It will be on this Friday at 5:30 p.m. Central Time on your local CBS channel.

As for a DVD, apparently there won't be one as Animal Planet owns the rights to the Championships, at least for this year. For some reason, they choose not to film.
