I just got the judging program for Friday's show. This is the show in which the Tito Monster is in breed, Open B, and Utility B. (The other 3 shows in which I did that are the following weekend but I successfully pulled him from both obedience events in all 3 of those shows). I'm showing him in breed myself at Friday's show.
So....he's in Utility at 8:15 a.m. and breed at 9:00. So far, so good. I like that because my hands won't have all kinds of shampoo smells etc. on them yet when we do articles.
BUT
He's the LAST dog in Open B, and it's a full judging schedule with just one judge. So as close as I can estimate, it will be
SEVEN HOURS
between when he's in Utility B and he's in Open B!!!!!

Since we're looking for UDX legs, if he NQ's in Utility there's no point in staying for Open.
I'd NEVER intentionally NQ him in Utility, but I won't be nervous at all this time around because if he NQ's I'd honestly be a bit happy about it.
Boy oh boy am I glad you guys *talked me into* pulling him from the obedience events the following weekend!!!!
