Kludde has fun in Appomattox

Once again Kludde and I enjoyed SAR camp in Appomattox. Kludde ran urban trails, high finds, and wilderness work -- all split trails with additional subject discrimination  which has been a challenge in the past.

Daughter gets same award as daddy

Huge congratulations to Michelle and all of her training support team. Abra receives FR3 Eastern Region Vice Champion. 

Advanced vehicle title

 

Kludde enjoys Bushkill Fallls and the Delaware River before finishing up advanced vehicle. 

Advanced exterior title

Fun trial hosted by Tri-State DOC and judged by Gale Meadows. Enjoyed the Poconos trails before and after trialing. 

 

 

Mantrailing fun with training buddies

 Huge thank you to Jonathan who regularly hides for me. Kludde overshot the last turn then took me the most direct way... through thorns. Next time I will be more clever but no harm was done to trail layer, the dog, or me and I learned a lesson so it was all good. Nice to be out in a cool day training dogs.

Abra finishes FR3

Congratulations! Not sure how many father and daughter pairs have earned the highest NARA level but Michelle's awesome training made it happen. 

Northern Tier SAR seminar

The space, a ski lodge, was neat. Kludde had fun finding people.
