Nose work students had a busy weekend!
🐕Milo, Indie, and Paula earned passed all three of their ORT runs at the Port Chester Obedience Training Club trial.
🐕 Fiia gave the ORT a whirl and only after being on odor for 6 weeks, still walked away with a pass in one of the odors! Her handler learned so much about trialing.

🐕 Finn and Cedar got a few more Q's towards their titles in Excellent & Novice/Advanced
🐕 Rori earned 3 titles and three placements at the German Shepherd trial and will be entering AKC advanced
🐕 Belle earned 3 titles and 3 placements at the Del Otse Nango trial putting her in the excellent class

Noce job everyone!
