Our young lab finished the first 2 legs of his Rally Novice with a second place win on Saturday.

I have no idea what a Rally Novice is but that is a good looking dog!
I pity the man that has never been loved by a dog!

Awesome - that's some work you're doing. I'd get lost even with all the little cards telling you what to do! A good friend of mine has a standard poodle and took him to his first rally event last weekend - she too passed and took a second on one day!

It takes some real effort to train them up to that level - good job!!!

Thanks. He would do better if he was not so very distracted :roll: keeping his attention at the show was interesting. SO glad you can talk to them in Rally! Saved us on the second day.

Now, we have tentative plans to run hunt tests this spring too.... but still working on clean delivery without squelching snappy return speed and extending marks out longer...

And thank you Don, I am biased but think he is pretty nice looking. I try to keep good looking dogs to stand next to --- saves people from looking at me and hurting their eyes. :wink:
