First MR3 trial 3 of 3

Search and escort - Kludde was a tad dirty but Spencer certainly wasn't getting away






Object guard








First MR3 trial 2 of 3

Long jump - getting him pumped

Effortless hurdle
Face over obstacle


Defense with the basket of cherry blossoms and a klutz of a decoy




Flee attack - Kludde shows Scott what to expect if any guns are aimed at us


Accessory attack - balls kicked up then worked with tape pom poms






First MR3 trial 1 of 3

Huge thanks to my club DC'swRingers, judge Donald Lee, trial decoys Scott Dunsmore, Spencer Bowman, and my training decoys Ethan Hall and Geoff Byram.

The theme was Cherry Blossom Festival in D.C.  We were perhaps a week early on the blossoms.

Kludde really only made one mistake that was his fault so while we didn't pass I thought he did really well and we are excited to trial again soon.

Check in
Food refusal - Moving ham is interesting.



Absence - Sit stay with handler behind.  Kludde's rear stayed planted.




Heeling



Little wood - reminded him what I smelled like and he gave me a perfect, chew-free, sit presentation
