Yesterday Moriah (Official Star de la Rouquine) earned her BH at the Maine Schutzhund Club trial under USCA Judge Don Yelle. We (me, mostly) have a lot to work on before we are close to perfect but she did so nicely, especially holding her long down-stay with horses grazing about 10 feet away. Her attention was nice, her temperament evaluation was perfect, and her focus was excellent. We’ve trained the BH without any corrective tools aside from a fur-saver collar. I am not against corrections (e, prong, etc) used fairly, but Moriah is so eager to please, I haven’t needed them for OB.
Super super proud of my girl, she has next to no focused heel about 6 weeks ago, and has come a long way!
Hurray, now onward to our IGP 1 in the spring, and IGP II at Regionals here in Maine next fall.
We aren’t ambitious at all….
Miss Moriah- Practically Perfect in Every Way!
