Doodle Romp Sunday October 19th

[Carolyn Shusterman]

Come join us at Arbor Dog Park Sunday October 19th 1 to 4 PM.   We have such a friendly group of owners and their doodles you don't need to know anyone to feel like 'one of the family'. 

Who can make it to the 'fun with Doodles day'?

Wonderful Gwyndolyn! I was hoping to have mine up today, but they didn't copy right from my computer to my stick to bring to work.  I'll upload tomorrow, I got some great closeups of lot's of doodles.  It was such a great time, so good to see my friends and meet some new ones.  Can't wait to do it again.....

Can't wait to see your pictures, GBK.

Gina, We look forward to your photos too!!  I Loved Kona's sweet expression captured by Paul and Gwyn.  BTW How did Kona do on the nose trail?

[GBK]

Here you go Carolyn :) 

Kona was awesome, I was not.  I called the very first search too soon.  She hadn't gotten her nose on it yet and went down on her belly to try to get closer and I called alert when she hit the floor.  She never looked at me, which is her sure sign she's got the source of the odor.  We did great on all the rest of the searches and just missed third place in time on the boxes by less than a second.  I sure hope we get into the AZ trial because I really know she is ready and I will be too, I will trust her!!!  Pink and Renee earned their titles and got third place out of 40 dogs for the interior search, this is the one we missed.  I am really proud of Renee and her doodle.

Gina, You got some great 'mug shots'.  Your Kona sure connects with the camera.

Sorry to hear about your less then a second error at the nose trail.  How many trials do the dogs have to pass to earn a title?  What is the name of the title?  Good luck in AZ, let us know how you and Kono do.

Thanks, I love the close ups with all those beautiful eyes :)

To earn a title (Nosework 1, Nosework 2, Nosework 3, Nosework 3 Elite) they have to complete the four areas of a trial without either timing out (the longest they will give you is three minutes at the first level) or calling it incorrectly which ends that area but you get to go on and complete the other three (that is what we did).  If we get into AZ, I'll keep you posted.  I entered both Kona and Buddy, he will be at Nosework 2 as he passed his first trial already and we will retry level 1 again for my Kona bug.

I love the two of Ned = one 'stalking' and one of his face.  You captured a good one of Gordie also.  The full body one of Clancy really shows his gorgeous tail and the one with the toy is pure Clancy!

Super! We look forward to seeing you at the next Romp.  Plan on having Brunch with us too.
