Rally brags from Indi and Juma Hankemeyer
Saturday June 25 at the NCOTC Obedience trial Juma had a nice run in Rally
Excellent for his first leg Indi did much better with a score of 100 for 3rd
place and her second leg in Rally Excellent. Sunday June 26 same club Juma got
his 2nd Rally Excellent leg. Poor Indi had her handler (yours truly) mess up a
station so 10 points off or she would have had a 99 instead of 89 for her Rally
Excellent title.
