Despite Tycho being very unfocused, leaving the ring, thinking that the rustling of a bag portended something edible (the table steward was pulling out some rubber bands), and almost visiting the Honor dog, we qualified. Many thanks to our very lenient judge, who gave us a score of 87. :)
3/9/08 - AKC obedience and rally trial hosted by SJVAC, held at Joshica's Planet Canine.
Just did my first rally-o trial with my border and had similar issues with loss of focus. BT's are highly distractable, so you need lots patience and a great sense of humour, both of which you displayed admirably!

Some nice work . I do find it hard once a border has lost concentration its very hard to get back. Well done to your both.
