This weekend, Roxy is participating in the Jack Russell Terrier Club Trails here in Georgia. She has never done any of these events before, and most of the other dogs have been doing it since they were puppies! She did fantastic her first day, we were so proud of her. The morning started off with the Racing events, Flats and Hurdles.

Even Bella got to participate in the Lure Chasing! And she was awesome too!

Roxy could have chased this lure for hours and hours! She just didn't want to come back, so she had to get caught "dog catcher style"! Too funny.
She also participated in an event called Go-To-Ground, where the Jack is supposed to go through a set of tunnels to get to the "live bait" (meaning pet rat in a wire cage). She was not a fan of the tunnels as you will see, but she LOVED the rat! She was very good at marking her hunt and then baying at it.

Roxy's next event was the Brush Hunt. And even though she has NEVER hunted before in her life, she did fantastic!
And of course when it is over ninety degrees out, you need a little cooling off! She worked HARD all day long.
