DOCOF WAS A RESOUNDING SUCCESS!

Out of 39 Club teams competing in this year's Dog Obedience Clubs of Florida (DOCOF) Fun Competition over Labor Day weekend, ODTC Team 1 placed 7th overall! Also, Linda Unger and Travis were in a 3-way tie for 3rd place in the Novice class. The run-off was off-lead heeling, and Travis made his mom proud! They ended up in 4th place, slightly edged out of 3rd by a tiny little error in the beginning of an otherwise flawless showing. Linda Unger, our Training Director, had this to say about how the team members represented ODTC, "Each of you put a lot of hard work and practice time into your performance and the results were wonderful. Your dedication to training your dog really showed. The best part was your great team spirit and each person helping everyone out, being ringside to cheer your teammates on and to be sure everyone got to their ring on time." Awesome job!
