I entered Fable in our local Rally trial somewhat last minute and we didn't have a ton of time to prepare. Despite only having worked on specific Rally/Competition Obedience maneuvers for somewhere between 60-80minutes total prior to the trial. We did pretty well. We entered all four trials and to be entirely honest, I wasn't sure how well it would go. Saturday morning during Trial 1, Fable was a bit unconnected and we weren't as synced as we normally are. We placed 2nd in Novice B with a 91. Saturday afternoon went far better and we placed 2nd again with a score of 97. The next day during Trial 1 Fable won the Novice B class with a score of 99 to finish his Rally Novice title! I moved Fable up to intermediate for Trial 2, but he was pretty tired. We still qualified with a score of 88 after a fumble on a sign where I tried to keep Fable engaged over saving points. I'm so happy with how well he did. We will definitely try to go into our next Rally trial with a bit more practice though!

 Fable participated in his first ever UKC show! We went to Autuagaville, AL and showed in all four shows. Fable also competed in Rally during the 'morning' show each day as well. Fable walked away with two Sighthound Group 4s, a Sighthound Group 2, and a Sighthound Group 1! Fable also earned a Total Dog award which is awarded to dogs that have qualified in a dog sport and have earned a conformation win (with a dog defeat) in the same show. I'm so proud of how he handled himself!
