Schutzhund Trial in Trinidad under US Judge

Thanks to Judge Joe Tackett we were able to have a schutzhund Trial in Trinidad for the second time this year. And it was one that set the stage for a couple historic occurrences. It was the first time a Rottweiler got a BH Title locally. He is owned by Michael Walcott from the Universal Schutzhund Club of T&T.
Also, I was joined by Allan Mitchell as being the first Decoys from Trinidad to work in a local trial under an international judge.
And as if I did not wear enough hats on the day, I was able to title Akira to her Schutzhund 2 with 91-90-88 and a High in Obedience and Tracking. All the work with Bernhard Flinks on my tracking, and using techniques from Ivan Balabanov on my obedience really paid off! The Trial was held under the auspices of the German Shepherd Breed Club of T&T and now we are one step closer to the qualification trial in September for the WUSV Trinidad Team.
We will take a rest for a couple days and then back to training pretty soon so we can improve on those scores for the Schutzhund 3.
