It's only 7 weeks until the New Year!

I'm toying with the idea of a small Happy Ratters trial on Thursday January 1st!

Who would be in??? Trial would be indoors but not enough room for spectators so waiting in your vehicle for your turn, or hanging out around a fire outside. I can only hope the weather might be a good as last year - I recall my teenager dirt biking last year on New Years Day haha.

Or if there is more interest in a NASDA Urban Challenge Specialty trial that could be arranged.

Let me know in the comments :D

Upgrade ongoing! My husband and son have been putting lots of time into this so we'll have a warm space to train in the winter and hopefully it will stay cooler in the summer as well!

Better late than never on my announcements I promised last week!

Many have asked, so we will deliver! I'm excited to announce we'll be offering the NASDA Online Lost Item Challenge again in conjunction with King Dog Sports Club! Last year we had a great time and if my memory serves correctly around 60 titles were earned by teams all over BC! The title rosettes were beautiful and unique - I'll post some pictures of them in the comments shortly!

As well, to wrap up the year, a NASDA league (in 150 Mile House) will be offered between November 24th and December 15th. 3 Trials offered and there are not set dates of the week quite yet...I will send out a poll/survey to gauge interest but in all likelihood, the Lost Item and Urban Locate will be held indoors at my training location weekday evenings (either Tuesday or Thursday - not determined quite yet) and hoping to fit in shed and trail & locate on weekends when we'll have daylight.

Happy Halloween!

Dogs are put away with things to chew and the kitty is safely crated so he doesn't visit with trick or treaters (he loves the crate so don't feel sorry for him)

Stay safe everyone!

Brag post for my super dogs! Most of my Fall competition plans have not panned out due to ever changing hockey schedules (both of my kids ref and play so very often my husband is out of town with one and I hold down the fort!)

But! We were able to squeeze in a small NASDA trial in Kersley last weekend. Rill is coming off a back injury she had in August so that was exciting - she earned her Level 2 Urban Locate title and ran 9 runs. Coulee ran 18 runs, several at level 3 which requires some stamina! Most of the runs the dogs were handled by my 11 year old daughter and she earned the placement flat ribbons (I don't keep track of those haha!)

There is more NASDA fun coming to wrap up 2025 so stayed tuned for an exciting post tomorrow!

In anticipation of having a warmer inside place to train over the winter, I'm considering applying for a NASDA league for late November and the first couple weeks of December. Urban Locate and Lost Item would be indoors and could be evenings and we could do weekends for shed and trail & locate (but would have to be a bit flexible to work around hockey schedules). If you're interested comment below! Or if you have a weekday evening that absolutely won't work I want to hear that too!

Happy Ratters won't be happening until possibly December (could do a one day weekend trial, or evening trial) and I'm hoping to do a league in January!
