Argh. Sorry guys, I haven't been on since Saturday, and my email's being a pain and not letting me log in. So I'll have to run this tomorrow. Dx

Bumped to add results. First Place: Elixir Second Place: Ichabob Third Place: Simple A very, um, amusing result. Elixir stumbled at the start, and Ichabod ran in a circle once before going for some reason, so they both fell behind a little early on in the race. Simple got a great start, and was well out in the lead, when she randomly fell over backwards and lay there on the track. This was when she was literally a nose away from the line. Then Elixir powered down and won, with Ichabob skipped to the line, then ran the last few strides. Advice: Elixir: Not really much you can improve on without getting really detailed. Her start could be improved, but her speed is getting better and better every race I see her. Her stumbling was just a little bit of bad luck. Try some bending work with her, like with circles and weaving, to improve her balance a little. She's a great dog. Ichabob: This dog is absolutely gorgeous, as well as hilarious. He skips everywhere, and his run is a puppy run when he's not racing. However, before the race, I let the dogs run a few "warm up laps", and in one of those he ran neck and neck with Elixir the whole way, and ended up passing her. He can put on an amazing burst of speed when he wants to, and I think that he'll make an amazing sprinter with a bit of work. Work him with other dogs more, and work on his start. Other than that, good luck. Simple: I actually had high hopes for Simple until she fell over. She's a great little honest dog, just like the last one you raced. Keep working with her, and she'll do well. She needs to run laps a bit more, and working her on circles would help her out a lot.

Yay Simple! XD Though Simp's a he. With how close he came I think he'll do excellent in his next race as I've been doing alot of training with him since I sent him.
