Emma's Brags

December 2005

Just have to brag a little. Emma earned her Novice Tunnelers title last weekend. It's taken a long time to teach her how to turn with all of those tunnels. She ran the course in 19 seconds coming in second place and that's against all of the dog's not just Veterans. Two weeks ago at CAT's NADAC Trial in Ridgefield, WA, Emma earned her first Elite Regular leg. It was a beautiful and FAST run. Pretty good for a dog who turns 12 today (well, today is the date we adopted her back in 1997)!

BTW, Emma performed beautifully this last Saturday. At ZAP Agility's NADAC trial she earned two Elite Regular legs to finish her Elite Agility Certificate - Veteran title! Coming in 2nd and 1st place, she was just a wonderful little girl. Of course, she could not let me get a big head about it. On Sunday, she refused to work twice to go hunt for cat poop. OY! No matter. It's our first Elite title and I'm beaming with pride.
