General Discussion / Re: Toy in the ring
« Last post by Heidi Konesko on June 18, 2019, 02:45:56 AM »Just want to say that I've used a toy in the ring at two trials now, and i like how my dog is more focused and having more fun. The first few rimes he didn’t seem to believe that he should get the toy, but then he got the hang of it. I’m learning some strategies too: wear something with the right size pockets, start with the toy in my pocket and put the toy back in my pocket after playing so that my handling is normal and he never knows when it’s going to be a toy run, don’t throw it near the end of a run and interfere with the leash runner, remember to tell the judge that i am taking an e at the good luck, and a yellow tennis ball sized ball on a short rope is probably going to work best for us.
Thank you NADAC!

We had a great time in rainy Joliet, IL with In the Zone Agility and Lisa Schmit and many, many very kind and helpful people for this newbie! I learned a lot as everyone was so helpful and encouraging! Capri was so tired after her first day but was happy to go back and Q on Intro Chances the next day and to run Novice Hoopers and Novice TouchNGo (no Q's but that's ok!). Thank you, Lisa - and NADAC! I'm thankful to have found NADAC!

« Last post by Linda W. Anderson on June 16, 2019, 06:18:34 AM »If you are referring to the purple NADAC rosette wreathes in the worker's raffle and in the Virginia basket, it was me. There is really no pattern, you just need 20 rosettes and the plain streamers from them. I used a hot glue gun and the streamers to cover a flat 18" Styrofoam form from A.C. Moore. I added a piece of picture wire tucked under the ribbons for a hanger. Arrange the rosettes, 10 on the bottom row, gluing each down. Stagger each rosette on the top row between two rosettes on top the bottom row, and glue. I'm attaching a picture to help you. Good luck! Are you coming to Champs this year?

As per the handbook:
When entering trials you do NOT need to show these titles in order to enter. Simply enter the trial as you normally would at the level you wish to run. If you have submitted your titles to be reviewed correctly then when your points come to the NADAC office they will show up in your records and accumulate properly. If you have not submitted the proper documents for review, or the review process has not been completed your points will show up with a value of Zero, and will not count towards title or awards. Please note that once your review has been completed, they will start to accumulate. You do not need to wait for the review process to complete in order to enter trials. You could enter a trial and then submit your documents after the trial is over, and once your review is finished your points would then show up as normal. You can submit your titles for review from this page:
www.nadac.com/grandfathering-submission/
