Sprinters

 


Lync and I had another great weekend. We travelled to Strathmore to compete in a Sprinters trial. Lync had a blast! Sprinters requires the dog to run a 100 yard dash and they are timed.  The times are then converted into points. Lync's times were consistent, 9.1, 9.2 or 9.0 in 8 runs.  He received enough points for his Novice Sprinter title and is well on his way to his next level. We compete again in August.

Lync's First Hunt Test

This past weekend, July 3, 4 2021, I entered Lync in his first Hunt Test. He is at the Junior level right now. To earn the title of Junior Hunter you have to have 3 passes. Lync is well on his way with his 2 passes earned ! The last time I trialed Lync in any Field event was in 2014 and Lync was just a year old. So here we are 7 years later!  I really love doing this with Lync, to watch him doing what he was bred for is a thrill. I don't know why I waited so long. 

There is another trial at the end of August I want to attend with hopes of getting 1 more pass to earn the title of Junior Hunter.
