Sunny's busy winter


Sunny has a pretty busy social calendar this winter. We have continued with the Read to a Dog program at the local elementary school, started our orientation at the hospital as a registered Delta therapy team, and are doing another obedience class.
We hopefully have some IABCA shows coming up over the next couple of months but, to practice up, we participated in a local "fun match". This was our first time ever in a show or obedience ring and she took a first in obedience, fourth in rally, third in conformation (with many handler errors) and a first in showmanship (well, only because there were only 2 of us and the other team were first timers too!). They also had Canine Good Citizen testing at the match, and Sunny passed with flying colors!
She also went on a trip to Colorado Springs in February and enjoyed playing ball in the park with my mom's Border Collie.
