Thanks guys it was a blast!

Smudge was awesome, he was fast and jumped like you wouldn't believe, and from what I hear from some of my friends who were there in the show that day and the next the guys in charge were VERY impressed with Smudge and I. I guess my good performance didn't carry over to the other two people who got to go and apprentice for a day though, from what I understand their dogs weren't as steady so didn't get to do as much.
