Well, I've been nursing my left foot for a few months now and it finally caught up to me. After a two-day NADAC show, running two dogs, I just destroyed what was left of my foot. I went to a podiatrist today and he injected steroids into my heel. He also thinks I sprained my ankle at some point. So I am icing my heel and wrapping my ankle. I cannot run or jump for 5 days and I decided to take the rest of the month off from agility. I seriously need to be able to run fast to do Shane justice.
Shane did terribly this weekend. We got one Q in Weavers. Duh. His start line is worse than ever, he's running around jumps, and not stopping on contacts. I was too exhausted from my foot troubles and I'm sure he picked up on it. On the good side, Dr. Van Winkle gave us Shen Calmer, which helped his anxiety walking around the arena. We actually made it back to the crate without any lunging. He still barked a little at some noisy border collies, but it was so much better.
