It is frustrating. I guess I could try moderated comments again; I added the antispam thing when I was starting to get overwhelmed with junk comments.Elfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01827436807468320435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3730801.post-54342002627026721842012-09-21T16:31:17.924-07:002012-09-21T16:31:17.924-07:00A friend of mine has some pretty serious hip and k...A friend of mine has some pretty serious hip and knee issues so has difficulty/pain running. She recently started trialing with her first BC and the distance work they do is amazing! Fun to see the surprise on everyone's faces (mine included) around the Starters ring when she leads out to the other side of the ring while her dog holds a perfect start-line stay and then nails the opening line... <br /><br />Inspirational!<br /><br />p.s. Am I the only one finding it impossible to read the anti-spam code these days?

And one woman with a back injury who could walk but no longer run, already had a trained dog and was trying to make the transition to working at a distance all the time. Saw her at a couple of trials then not any more. It's got to be tough playing under the same rules that mobile people play under. I'm glad to know that people are doing it successfully.Elfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01827436807468320435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3730801.post-88135296185197526302012-09-17T12:32:34.534-07:002012-09-17T12:32:34.534-07:00At one of our local trials a woman in one of those...At one of our local trials a woman in one of those fast wheel chairs showed up and ran her fast BC on the masters USDAA courses. She was awesome, had some of the best, fastest clean runs of everybody. Looked to me like she had a lot of strong verbal cues.Elaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02734583197185810124noreply@blogger.com
