Double Trial Day with Judge Patricia John, Jamesville NY

Exhibitors who are working towards their RACH—something to think about.  If you have all your triple Q’s and need Masters points, consider entering the Choice class.  Rally Choice is the Master’s class without the jump.  It will run as first class of each trial.  Think of it as an opportunity to “warm up” before the Master’s class.

Entry Form for All Testing

AKC Temperment Test - A temperament test or certification measures a dog’s reaction or behavior to various elements presented to them such as a stranger, usually of varying degrees ranging from neutral and friendly, to threatening and aggressive. A measure is also conducted on a dog’s reaction to auditory stimulus (gunshots) and reaction to visual stimulus (umbrella pop). There other environmental exposures such as unusual footing. An example would be to have a dog walk on a very unfamiliar surface.  The dog’s reactions are monitored for displays of unprovoked aggression, panic, or strong avoidance, all of which would usually be grounds for failure. (AKC website) SOTC is offering two tests on the same day. (You must pass two tests under two different judges to receive the ATT Title).

Cost: $33 per test
