UKC Premier
Honor and Eli will be showing in the Best of Breed-Altered class at the AKK Specialty that's held in conjunction with Premier! I'm so excited about it, and can't wait for it to be June!

Spring is almost here...
And the dogs have decided to help me dig holes for gardening...every time they come inside, they are muddy muddy MUDDY! And there are holes everywhere, lol. I think they're trying to tell me something.
Right now, we're preparing for the UKC Premier in June. Honor and Eli will be trialing both days at Premier, and we'll be trialing in APDT the weekend before that. It's nerve-wracking having both AKK trialing at Premier, because many AKK breeders and fanciers have said they'll stop by to watch them which makes me feel honored and nervous at the same time. I hope both do well! If Honor Qs on both runs, she'll have her URO1, and Eli's going for his first two legs of the title. Eli has the chance of getting his APDT RL1 the weekend prior, and Honor has the chance of getting 4 legs toward her Level 1 Championship (RL1x).
I'm considering having Nike trial the APDT weekend with the Klee Kai, I just want to make sure he's comfortable first. He still gets nervous around people he doesn't know, and I'm hoping to get him into a match before the trial to see how he does. He'll also be eligible to receive his RL1 that weekend.
I'll try to post some training videos later!

UKC Rally Tomorrow...
Honor and I have our first UKC Rally trial tomorrow. For some reason, I'm a little nervous. And I know that I'm Honor's biggest detriment in the ring. When I get nervous, she picks up on it, and ends out focusing on other things rather than Rally. I keep trying to tell myself that she Q'd in this exact same venue on a longer APDT Rally course, so there's nothing to worry about. Hopefully tomorrow will bring Honor her first two legs toward URO1!
In anticipation of the trial, we've been practicing. Yesterday we did outside work, and here's how it went:
