Maverick

Was down in PA this past weekend to run Maverick in amature class in the Vizsla clubs walking trial. We also brought Maverick home for a while before summer training camp and the fall field trial season.
I made it to the grounds just in time to get my blank pistol say hi to Brian ( Brian Riggle is Mav's trianer/handler in the US ) grab Maverick and head to the line. I was a walking trial and we were braced with a Vizsla this brace. Maverick was a little slow off the line but afterwards he picked it up and found his first bird which his bracement stole point on. We blanked the bird and moved on and had 3 more good solid finds and a great run.
I missed the gsp's run that beat us but I am sure he did a heck of a job as Mav put together a great run and we were happy to get a second.
Although we did not place in the open, I did see some great dogs run out there. I rode every brace of the open Derby and the GSP's put some solid dogs on the ground that ran some real nice races that I enjoyed watching!
I thought we had a chance at the yellow or white but the judges did not agree with me..
That makes a 4th a 3rd and two seconds for Maverick this spring. He is coming along very well and he are very happy with his progress thus far.
