After only 11 months of training, we passed IPO 1 today. My girl showed all of her temperament at the trial – all of the good and the bad.

She was a little too fast in tracking and overexcited in obedience & protection. But she still showed solid, well trained work. On her first trial (with a novice handler) she got 91 points in protection and nothing but praise from the judge. He says it’s up to me to take all that drive, energy and talent and square it away into perfection 🙂

To see her work, watch the video below…
