I'm SO proud of my little boy today!! He had an amazing day!!

Even though I should never do Rally, we tried and only had to repeat one sign in Novice. We passed with a qualifying score of 96!! It's my first leg of Rally ever!! (It seems to be too much for me ... handle a dog and read signs ... kinda like chewing gum and walking... :) )

Then in pre-novice he was awesome!! It was terribly hot but he did everything until he did his "I'm melting..." impression and laid down during the sit-stay. *sigh* It WAS hot though. The long down was no problem. :blush: :P The judge still gave us second even though we didn't qualify since we would have had the second highest score. :P

The CGC was a walk in the park and I don't think he even noticed he was being tested. :)

What a great day!! I'm SO proud of him!! :devil:

The embedded collars in his neck when we got him and he goes back and extends the gentle paw to the human race. One heck of a dog.

Are you going to try the CGC in Aug at Island Lake? You could get Duffy ready by then. :)

He could be ready by then EASY!! He's a sweetheart!!

You don't need an ILP for the CGC test and Bobbie the evaluator is a WONDERFUL lady! She is so helpful and relaxed about the test.

Plus the park is beautiful!! Daisy was saying they all go swimming after the WAC. It sounds like a lot of fun!! :)

Go for it Scott! If you want to come to the states the nite before, I'm sure we can find a place for you and Duffy too :) Island Lake is practically in my backyard. Between me, you, and Stef, we would have enough dogs to go through some practice runs with Duffy :)

Hi,
Yea the park is really nice, there is a fee I think its $6. The lake
across from the test area is nice for the dogs & people.. Bring a flexie
lead, towels, swimsuit, shorts-teeshirt whatever...
Its at the back area of the park, about a 15 min drive once you come
in. Several of the SCD gang were there last year & can tell you.

Congratulations, Stef and Tux. You guys are definitely on a roll :) Can't wait to hear about his next accomplishment :)
