To be fair, isn't that a very hard call to make on the dogwalk? Part of having a running dogwalk is taking the risk of it not being judged accurately. You win some, you lose some -like bad calls in any sport.
I don't know AKC rules, but in USDAA that could indeed be a missed contact through "incidental contact", meaning the dog basically left the contact but one foot hit the very bottom part incidentally. I assume AKC has this rule too, but don't know for sure.
That said, Kiba had a godawful aframe call in AKC the other weekend. AKC judges are way worse than USDAA ones at running contacts.
Haven't had a chance to watch any of your videos lately until now. Geez she is getting faster and faster! Awesome job!

fabulous as always. I got a kick out of your 'because Qing is so overrated' comment. Perhaps *thats* the motto Rocket lives by? ;oD
