Ann Perkins' 2023 AKC National Agility Championships Tulsa, OK videos!

These are the official videos from the live stream of the event! We had a couple misses so we didn’t finish as high up as we wanted this year, but there’s always next year! I just can’t believe I get to compete with my dog and travel the country doing it. I mean, really. Travel for two and a half days to run around in a dirt horse ring with your dog? SURE! COUNT ME IN!

This was our Premier Standard run. A little bobble at the backside after the teeter cost us a clean run. This is one of those moments where the judge makes a difference. Sometimes you get it and sometimes you get called on it. This day, we got called on it. Oh well. We had fun doing it!

This is our Standard NAC run. IT WAS CLEAN! YAY!!!

This was our Jumpers NAC run. I gave her an “around” cue early enough but had her eyes locked on that next jump and couldn’t overcome her impulse to jump over it. Then, she dropped a bar at the triple, which is very unlike her. I think she already knew we messed up so she wasn’t flying as high as she normally does.

Final run of the weekend. This is the Hybrid NAC run. We ran clean!
