Our Second Trial - K9-Krazy NY

This was Elsie's second trial

At K9Krazy in Ellenville NY- a pretty setting in the Catskill region.
This location is one of Elsie's favorite's- she always does well here

She got a 203- and a 1st place in L1A- I was sooo happy

The Rally ring

 

I have to laugh- the husbands wait with the coolers...

Speck, Rod- and you can see another husband in the distance hanging out with  the cooler

 

 

 

Elsie's First Trial

Elsie's First Rally Trial

This was at Sussex Fairgrounds.  We were really nervous - and it took her, like an hour to calm down and focus.  We scored a rather deplorable 180 or so.  But she got a Q!! (qualifying score).

Elsie Does Rally

Because Elsie was such a handful- we went to a lot of obedience classes- mostly to get her to calm down around other dogs.........turns out- she had an amazing talent AND motivation to do well in obedience!!
Showing Elsie was still a challenge- 1 hr warm ups, avoid all other dogs, sneak over to the show ring etc etc.  It took a long time to get her doing really well- wish I had done a blog on her journey of this!

We Rallied all over NJ, NY, Pa, and had a year or so of working so hard to turn in a perfect score.  This is her at a Rally in Kingston NY, where she turned in THREE perfect scores, won ALL her classes, and was High Score Rescue Dog in 2 trials...Good girl Elsie!!!!
