We traveled to Simpsonville, SC this past weekend to compete in Open Obedience. Mia had a nice run on Saturday and qualified for her first CDX leg with a 4th place. We competed on Sunday and even though Mia had a beautiful run that would have earned us a 194.5/200, we NQ'd on the 5 minute out of sight down stay. Apparently, the princess had a hard time getting comfortable and shifted around too much. Even though we didn't qualify, it was great to have such a nice performance. 1 leg down, 2 to go!
Requirements for Open Obedience:
- Heel off leash (including a figure 8)
- Drop on recall
- Retrieve on the flat
- Retrieve over the high jump
- Broad Jump
- 3 minute out of sight sit stay
- 5 minute out of sight down stay
To qualify, the dog and handler team must earn at least 170 points out of 200 and at least 50% of the points on each exercise.
