Yet More Obedience

But yet, not all obedience!
This past weekend saw me back at The Training Hall for the Ottawa Valley Poodle Club Obedience and Rally trial. It’s always a treat when I get to have some fun and photograph dogs informally as well as formally.
First we have Toller, Jazzy, who was full of beans!

Molly, the wirehaired Dachshund

Then we have adorable Ria, a 9 month old Bernese Mountain Dog

Finally, proof that formal titling shots can also be cute!

ABTC National Specialty

The beginning of May saw us heading down to Rhode Island for the American Belgian Tervuren Club Specialty. Lots to do – agility, obedience, rally and conformation. There was also herding, but we arrived too late for that because of the HiT of HiTs.

Ivan got his first novice JWW leg and Tyra got another EX JWW leg. They also go a leg apiece in Rally. Tyra took first place, but only because the others in her class both NQd 🙂

Marco showed well, taking 2nd place in 9-12month class at the specialty and then First place and RWD in the regional specialty on the Sunday.
