Took Jack to a Rally trial this weekend. Put him in Rally Intermediate, which is one of those new "optional" classes. Basically it's Rally Advanced on leash with no jump. He's 10, I thought it was a good way to get him back into the ring.
He got a 94 with a 4th place yesterday and an 88 today. He was not happy with the Halt-Call to Front-Finish left as the first sign. It was right next to the gate, with a steward on one side blocking the gate, the judge to the left and 2 stewards sitting at the table on the right. Even with a redo I could not coax him to do it better so we took the 10 point loss. The rest he did awesome at.
So 2 Q's down. He should also be getting his Achiever Dog certificate because of this.
Doing UKC in a couple of weeks and going for the final Q on June 2!
