Online competition news, (non KC)

Jean Tuck's Maddie (Saunderswood Fire Fly of Craygill AWG) and Zac (Tooralie's Masquerade at Craygill AWP Beg.Ex) have been having a try at tricks with DogTricksUK during the November lockdown, and since. Having worked their way through Novice, Intermediate, Advanced and Expert levels, they have now achieved Champion status (TDCH).

Although not recognised by our KC, the American and Canadian KCs do recognise it, and their logos are on all the certificates.

The tricks include exercises from Agility, Breed, Obedience, Scentwork and Rally, as well as more traditional tricks, so there's something for everyone to get started.
