Club Spring Rally

[Calliesmom]

we have a lot of interest in rally in the area and it seems like there are never enough trials so last spring we added a spring rally trial. our dates for that trial this year ended up on Easter weekend- most people seemed happy with changing the format to 2 trials on Saturday so everyone could be home on Easter Sunday.
I decided to enter Destin in Excellent as he's had his Advanced title for a while now but he's been pretty distracted while off leash. we haven't gotten to practice all of the excellent signs as much as we need to but Destin surprised me and did really well. we got a 99 in the morning trial and a 96 in the afternoon trial. we lost 3 points in the afternoon as we redid a sign. so it was really a pretty good day for us.
we plan to enter another trial in June so it'll be possible to get his title at that trial.

thanks- yeah this judge was amused but other judges could possibly take deductions-especially if he touches me while doing that.........
but it meant he was interested in me instead of sniffing or not paying attention to me...

Great job! Destin looks terrific, so focused on you! I loved doing Rally with mine, it's a lot of fun. Hope to get back to it eventually. You give me inspiration!

He heels so beautifully! Love how he is constantly looking up at you.

i did Rally with Brodie, but then spent more time with agility. Makes me want to get back with him. I do Rally with Deacon; it is more his style.

Destin is soooo beautiful!!! LOVE his coat!

I had to work a little to keep his attention but I knew he'd be distracted so I kept talking to him- that's what I love about rally

thanks- he does need to be a little closer when heeling but since he was paying attention - we'll work on that later.....
Destin loves agility too- that's our next trial and then we'll have another obedience/rally trial to go to......
I think he's a looker too and I do love his coat
