You and Rio get the blue ribbon for your great effort and for not getting discouraged! I'm KNOW that with time and a little more practice, you're going to do great! I agree, it's almost harder for the handler than the pup! Our first competition, I took a major spill on the grass, rounding a turn and blew the whole thing! lol! Star looked back at me like, "Hey, what are you doing laying on the ground; get up!" I'm glad the trainer was encouraging! Most important thing is that you and Rio had fun. And it's great to hear that Rio was the angel we all know she is! Good job!!!
