Joplin got two more firsts on last weekend in Conyers, once again showing the young ones what it's all about. The old man is at 50 points and counting and we are 6 first places in open for six starts. We're getting less and less raised eyebrows when the old man with the white face walks to the start.
In other news, I met PH Borzoi's Wings at last weekend's trial. What a gorgeous dog!
The other thing I learned- don't underwrap with red vetwrap!!! There was some nasty gravel on the field and I was underwrapping Joplin's legs at certain points with narrower wrap- sort of to shore up some pads and whatnot. The only stuff I had was red which I then overwrapped with Joplin's normal black. We got to the line and I guess a little bit of the red was showing because we nearly got dismissed when the huntmaster became convinced that I was running my elderly dog with bleeding feet
I had scissors in my pocket and cut the wrap down a tiny bit so that he could see, and all was okay.
