Introducing Spirit Ridge's "Ochi", RNMCL (CARO)

On June 10, 2012, Spirit Ridge's "Ochi" became the youngest of Spirit Ridge's dogs to enter a trial at 8 months and 10 days of age. After three wonderful "runs", Ochi easily glided towards her first (of what we hope will be many) title in Rally Obedience registering scores of 198/200 (2nd place finish), 196/200 (2nd place finish) and 199/200 (1st place finish) and earning her Rally Novice title "magna cum laude" (meaning an average of at least 190/200 in her three runs). For a video of "Ochi's" third and final run please follow this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UhRkzdv0ieU&list=UUN046-l7o9lt6-4uwpIhysw&index=1&feature=plcp

Below, are some pictures taken at the Rally Obedience trial held at the Poodle Farm in Vanessa, Ontario, Canada with "Ochi" and his handler, Jim Tsitanidis, K9 Trainer & Behavioural Consultant. We hope you enjoy them!
