Hi! I was in my first
obedience trials this year. Mom started me in Pre-Novice to get us both comfortable
in the ring. I received a 2nd and a 3rd place, so I guess we did OK. We were
in our first Novice class today and I qualified with a nice score and a 4th place.
Mom is so proud, because I was so shy, she says this is a really big accomplishment for
me! Mom trains us with love, respect and kindness. We don't use any training collars - just plain buckle collars. We sometimes use clickers and get treats, praise and playtime as rewards for doing a good job. I really love Rally Obedience. We just went to a seminar recently given by our great friend, Sue Oakes with a match afterwards. Sue and her German Shepherd Dog, Thunder, are among the world's first Rally O title holders! Sue is also an approved Rally judge with the APDT (Association of Pet Dog Trainers). I earned my Rally level 1 title, Magna Cum Laude and am still working on my traditional obedience. Rally is cool because Mom can talk to me the whole time. I don't get as distracted when she talks to me. Above is a picture of me and Cinder from the Rally match. We were in a run-off for 4th place in the second round. 4/26/04 |
