I walked out to the kennels and walked inside. First i went and turned on the air conditioning since it was such a hot day. Then i took out Have A Break and put is leash on him. Then i took him to the indoor ring. I walked him around for about 15 minutes then i went and put him back in his kennel. Then i took out Pacific Surf and took her to the indoor ring. I walked her around for about 15 minutes then i put her back and did the same thing with Solid Flash, Silver Stream, Mr. Spunky, Torrent, Syncope, High Light, Traffic Jam, Simply Spiral, Sand Storm, Desert Sheik and Cast Away. After i had done all the walking i went to the indoor track to see if it was cool in there. It was just perfect for workouts with the older dogs. I went into Flash's Kennel and put his #3 racing blanket on him. Then i went and put Silver's #1 blanket on her. Then i went and put Break's #4 blanket on him. Then i went and put Surf's #2 blanket on her. Then i went and put a leash on Silver. She knew what was coming and she acted very professional about it. She loaded into the #1 trap easily. Then i went and put Surf in the #2 trap. She gave me no trouble what so ever. Then i put Flash in the #3 trap. He was feisty and refused to go in. So finally i had to throw a treat in so he would go in. I reminded myself to work on his trap work with him. Before i got Break i went and made a note on the whiteboard to work with flash. Then i took Break and loaded him into the #4 trap. He went in like an angel. Then i went to the control board and pressed the button to set the number of bends i wanted the bunny to go around i put in 4 bends. Then i started up the bunny. Then i pushed the trap release button just seconds after. The dogs all shot out and Silver took the lead going into the first bend. Surf started to move up on her but she fought back. Going into bend 3 Break started to move up and passed Silver and Surf. Going into the last bend Silver moved up to challenge Break. Then Flash moved up into third and Break dropped back to last. Surf moved up into 2nd place. Then came the wire. Silver won it with Surf in 2nd and Flash in 3rd and Break in 4th. I cought them one at a time and led them back to the kennels i walked them around for about a half an hour then i put them in the kennels and gave them all a special treat. Then i fed all the dogs and blanketed the greyhounds and turned off the air conditioner and went in the house to have a shower and change then i headed into town to get some stuff..........

Continued on the social life board!!!!!
