Description

Twyla, my formerly feral dog, earned her Rally Obedience Level 1 title on December 10, 2016. It's been rough waters for her trying to tame her fears. But finally, she is able to get out in front of a crowd of strangers and not freak out. She generally prefers walking under my rollator to next to me. But she exceeded my expectations at 3 Rally-O trials to gain a title! What a long long way she has come! WINNER (2nd place) and JACKPOT JANUARY 2021

Congratulations on this POTD selection, Melinda! Hard work and patience, on everyone's part made her title happen. And you've capture her nicely - eyes in sharp focus, non-distracting background and, of course, her red ribbon! #11575580
