Announcing NATCH2 Zora

We had a wonderful weekend of agility on Saturday and Sunday. Miss Zora earned 10/12 qualifying rounds and earned her NATCH2 (NADAC Agility Trial Champion level 2). Since we only trial about 5 times a year, I am very proud of her. She earned her first NATCH in late 2009.



In addition, she completed a distance bonus in Elite tunnelers on Sunday as well as nearly completing a distance bonus in Elite jumpers (I had to step over the line for 2 obstacles to assist her).

She finished her NATCH2 yesterday by completing a very difficult round of Elite Chances. Only 6 dogs in the Elite class qualified on that course. I am perhaps more proud than anything of the fact that 2 of the other 5 people were MY STUDENTS!!! I am so proud of them.

But I will take a moment to appreciate my own success as well. I think I have one of the finest 8" distance dogs in the country.

Congratulations, Zora! I am proud to call you my partner.





Love you.
