USA Team Practice Day 2

Honestly this has been one of the most educational days of my 13 years in the sport. We ran some really fantastically wicked courses, Jenna was a superstar (& clean) on almost all of them as always, but beyond handling and training I got a lesson on what makes Jenna tick. Somethings I had no idea about, and now understanding how she functions and her body works I feel like this is a new beginning for us. She is only 6, which is still young, and I'm hoping the future will be very different for both of us. 

In addition to shocking explanations about miss turtle dog Jenna,we also spent some great time with friends, new and old. I'm so excited to be heading to Europe with such a fun group of people, and they are all such amazing handlers too!! Goodness simply watching everyone run was fascinating and education, being able to break things down and really discuss the ins & outs of handling on a large scale. I definitely have a few things I'll be taking home to train in the yard, and hopefully perfect with my girls this summer. Super pumped for tomorrow!!! :)
