We needed one more dog to be able to qualify 2 dogs so Scott threw our newest dog in as a fill in. We got Skip from Bobby Ford just last week. Although Skippy has fit right in with our crew, Scott hasn't had a chance to work the 16 month old ever (who only went to his first trial in pro novice with Bobby last week). I was rooting for young Skip even though during the run before him, the sky opened up and started pouring. For a moment, Skip was the man and went out on a better outrun than any of the 7 other dogs in the class but then his inexperience showed through and he tried to hold the sheep to the set out person and lost them to set out. Better luck tomorrow, Skippy!
Although Wynn took first and Bliss was second, they had been sitting for a week and it wasn't their prettiest runs. Hopefully, they improve tomorrow.

I have to say, the name Skip, Skippy, just makes you want to like him. Did you ever see the Australian kid's show Skippy the Bush Kangaroo? I can still sing the theme song! Thanks for sharing Jenny.
