Tire!

Here's a picture I purchased from the trial photographer Jim Poor. He always take great photos and I can never resist getting at least one. I didn't have any tire shots yet, so now I do!

One of the new AKC rule changes coming in September is that the tire is to be set one jump height lower than the rest of the jumps. So for Jimmy jumping at 12 inches, he will only have to jump through an 8 inch tire. I really like that change! You can tell by this picture that Jimmy barely clears the tire. I know the big dog folks aren't so happy about this change. It's hard to make everyone happy.....
