Competed in a CARO Excellent event at The Poodle Farm in Vanessa. A 198 and an NQ. Not the result I was hoping for (back wasn’t very good today). There were a couple of signs that Riot had trouble with that I had not seen before in Rally:

• Spread Jump
• Call Front While Running

The good news is that the jump exercise was performed perfectly (which was a challenge at the Poodle Farm last year).

At The Poodle Farm in Vanessa for the our last Rally event in 2007 and our last chance to get an Advanced title before the end of the year. I wasn't feeling good but Riot was terrific. Two 198 scores, two firsts, one Caro Advanced title. Nice!

Trying to get a CARO Advanced Rally title at Campaign Dog Academy in Georgetown today. Scores:

• 196
• 199 - 2nd place
• NQ - Riot missed a moving down. Initially I thought Riot erred but later on I realized I gave the wrong hand signal.
