Bella got her BCAT!

[mistressofmuses]

Bella had another FastCAT today, this time sponsored by the Keeshond club. (As usual, I would rather have been there than at work. There is one in early June I get to go to, though!)

Her scores today... weren't great. Her first time was okay, 11.49. Her second one was pretty bad, 19.12. Apparently she got distracted at the start, and didn't actually start to run for several seconds, heh. Alex said the wait for both runs was pretty long, so she started to lose a little bit of her hype.

But she accumulated enough points to get her BCAT, which is the first title for doing the event! (Each run gets points, faster runs getting more points. The BCAT title means she got 150 points total in the event. The intermediate is the DCAT, at 500 points, and the highest level is the FCAT, at 1000 points.)


So here she is with her big fancy ribbon!

I also had her pose with her ribbons at home this evening:




A noble sport-beaft.

That's awesome! And the photos are fab! But omg, how did you get her to pose like that?!!!

[mistressofmuses]

Thank you!

The posing was accomplished by her waiting very patiently while Alex held a treat up off-camera, haha.

[spikedluv]

Well it looks like she's a pro! She's being very patient.

[mistressofmuses]

She is capable of being very patient and focused when properly motivated, haha.
