On behalf of Team True Haus, thank you to everyone who made the Team True Haus WDA Trial such a successful event on and off the field. What an incredible display of camaraderie, teamwork, skill, and dedication to WDA. Times like these just warm the heart!

We have so many to thank:

- Aric Harris for taking time out of his extremely busy schedule to travel across the country to judge the event. His reminders to have fun out there with our dogs and his constructive and uplifting critiques were appreciated by all. Aric also spent time coaching one of our newer stewards on the ins and outs of running a trial field.
- Staci Armstrong Lundahl from the Fowler K9 Academy WDA Group for coming down from Idaho to steward the trial. Staci is very dedicated to learning as much as she can about WDA to assist with her home group trials.
-Decoys Terrey Randolph and Mesa Troxel for channeling their inner bad boys to put heat on the dogs during protection…a challenge all of the dogs met head on!
-Nancy Carter for doing a fantastic job of keeping the paperwork in order as trial secretary.
- And to all of the Team True Haus regulars and those who traveled from Oregon, Idaho, and other parts of California (near and far) to either participate in the trial or cheer on the teams. What a great showing!

Trial photos and results to come.

Congratulations to Cindy and Maggie for their teamwork on the trial field…they have been working hard to prepare for WDA, IGP and AKC Obedience competitions over the past several months. Well done!

All Duty K9 in Oroville, CA hosted back-to-back trials this month — the All Duty K9 WDA Obedience Trial on December 2nd and the All Duty K9 WDA Trial this past weekend. A big welcome to all of the new WDA teams that particpated in the events and congratulations to all who earned titles. For anyone who fell short, keep at it. We have all had those character-building trials! Thanks to all for helping WDA grow and for fostering the camaraderie that makes training and trialing so enjoyable.

Here are the links to the results pages for both trials:

WDA awarded 20 titles this past weekend at the two-day All Duty K9 WDA Trial. (Our Oregon teams had to pull due to unforeseen circumstances but we’ll see them at the next trial) https://www.workingdogsofamerica.com/Content/sdaweb/clubs/adk9/results12-10-23.html

Congratulations to Team True Haus for their success at the IGP trial hosted by the Pacific Coast Working Dog Club - two new titles and a high in protection score!

⭐️Cindy & Maggie - BH title
⭐️Ang & Siggi - BH-VT title
⭐️Susan & Audi - High protection score of 87 (TSB - pronouced) for her strong GPr1 performance but, sadly, she fell short in the OB phase. Audi performed all of her exercises but her mind was on a 🐿️(!) that wanted to join her on the field and the handler threw in too many extra commands to keep her on task. Trial lessons learned! 👍

It’s always a good day when we train and trial the dogs and it was nice to see our friends again at the Pacific Coast Working Dog Club!

11/19/2023

Team True Haus is in Dixon today for the IGP trial hosted by the Pacific Coast Working Dog Club. BH class for Cindy & Maggie and Ang & Siggi and the GPR 1 class for Susan & Audi. Go team!

We had the pleasure of spending time with Alex and his wife, Kourtney, over the weekend. Alex was here to become certified as a Working Dogs of America, Corp. decoy and Maggie and Tycho were thrilled to help out!

Alex is already a Level 3 decoy with the American Politiehond Association but needed to become certified as a WDA decoy to work the upcoming I Heart K9 WDA Trial in Riverside, CA. Alex is also an instructor at I Heart K9. Welcome to WDA, Alex!

A shout out to Judith Smithson and Razz (Asco x Audi) for their success in Explosives Detection training! This 14-month-old superstar will be working a concert in Southern California next month, sniffing for explosive odors on vehicles, golf carts and bags. We are very proud of what this team is accomplishing!

Little miss Razz got a very important call ☎️ today. She got asked to work her very first gig 💣 Can’t wait to put that nose of hers to work 🐾🤠
