Well, I got a tap on my shoulder with a small paw and it was "Mustang", asking why I had not posted her accomplishments for last Sunday's Scent Trial at Del Monte Kennel Club in Pacific Grove. She says she has harder classes to test😖 and she is right.👍
One thing I can say about Mustang and the tests she completed, is if I was ever lost just bring Mustang and she would find me. Mustang passed for the fifth time her Advance Handler Discrimination, working on her Advance Elite Title. Plus, passing the fourth time her Excellent Handler Discrimination going for her Excellent Handler Elite title. Both are tests where a cotton ball with my scent is hidden inside a room for advance and outside for excellent, in both cases she has to find the cotton ball in a certain amount of time, plus there is also the scent of the judge in the area or in a different box.
Mustang passed with a 5th/6th placements. Plus, she passed her 5th Excellent container search towards her Container Elite Excellent title. So, yes she is right, she does have harder tests.
That same day, she finished her second part of her 3.1+ Turkey Trot 2025 towards her Fit Dog Gold. I am very proud of this little 31 lbs girl AKA "Alien child"🤣 🎉👏 We walked the ocean path at Pacific Grove for her “Turkey Trot”
