SQUEAKED by with a Q at our first ever AKC trial! 175 (still second place!) In Novice A 🥲 She saw M outside the ring a few times during our heeling pattern and needed to 👁👁 so we lost some points there when I had to call her back to heel. And on the recall she came in too hot, went all the way around me and finished in a lovely heel position finish instead of a front. Can't be mad though. She did it!! In a brand new environment, brand new people, and even damp grass. 🥰
Day one at the dog show has been great! Kaiju passed his temperament test with a perfect score and now has his ATT title. Furby won Reserve winners dog and got some nice FastCAT runs in. He averaged about 22 mph 🏃💨
It’s been a wonderful start to 2024! Mr Link and fluffy pal, Mochi, each earned their very first AKC Agility titles, Novice Fast Preferred (NFP), over 2 weeks, with 3 Qs over 4 days of trials!
Much thanks to @fluffy.corgi.mochi’s human for the on-course handling!!
Dolly ran the courses as well as For Exhibition Only (FEO) and was on the sidelines cheering everyone on!
Thank you to the Southern California Portuguese Water Dog Club and the Samoyed Club of Los Angeles for hosting!
A week ago, we attended our first ever event; an AKC dog show. Green handler and green dog setting foot in a ring together for the first time. We pulled off WD/BOW/BOS for our first point!
We got to be led around by Corvus’ breeder for the day who has been a fantastic mentor. We got to visit his dam and sister and compete alongside them in the ring
More than anything I was thankful for a happy stable dog who handled everything with confidence. Can’t wait for what the future holds!
