Rita and Prince
A disappointing night for several handlers.
Highest mark in the CD trials went to a Golden Retriever who was handled by Jean Ray and this is the successful completion of the first leg of the trials.
In second place was a Labrador Retriever handled by Zoe Marshall who has now also passed the first leg of the CD trial.
In third place of the trials was my Bouvier Des Flandres who has now passed the third and final leg of the trials and so has achieved the CD title. Rita scored 180 out of a possible 200 points.
Passing leg A was the Pitbull Prince who is in the above photo and passing leg B was the Boxer.
Some handlers cancelled and some dogs which normally performed well had an off evening and so got scored under the required 170 points for a passing score.
Rhodeshian Ridgebacks at trials
There were no passing scores in the CDX trials.
And I will post later in the week, tips on passing the Novice Obedience Trials, especially with a lagging dog as I had that challenge with Rita.
