Luigi and I went to the MOC 3-in-2 trials over Memorial Day weekend. We teamed up pretty well, and Luigi got his CD. Two trials were on Saturday and one was on Sunday. Luigi is 9 years old. I was a little sad as I walked out of the arena because this is pretty much [...]

The Miami Obedience Club Agility Trial was a blast! Raven and I are starting to click. Just as I suspected, she had it in her to get her 3rd Nov Pref Std leg, and on Friday, we Q’d and Raven has a NAP title now. All our runs were recorded, and to put or keep [...]
This is the time of the MOC agility trial. It’s a 4-day event, starting today, but I entered my two girls on Friday and Saturday only. I need a day for chores and rest and I’m also taking vacation days, so pretty much have most of mine planned for the rest of the year. ‘Cept [...]
