July 2007

By Jane Eno

There were no brags for July, but the Novice A and Open A First & Foremost points are available.

First & Foremost Points for 2006
Novice A and Open A Obedience have been published in Front and Finish.

First and Foremost points are based on scores won by dogs, not on placements. Novice A Obedience competition is open only to dog and handler teams that have never received an obedience title before. If the handler or dog has ever received a title, they must show in Novice A. Congratulations to both the Novice A handlers for competing in Obedience for the very first time.

Open A is the second level of obedience training. Any dog that has a CD but has not yet earned a CDX and is owned/shown by a handler who has never earned an OTCH with a dog competes in this class.
