Makes Logan look like a piker in his awards picture
Course, he was a piker. I entered him 10 times for every green qualifying ribbon he earned. ;~D He was either stellar or embarrassing, never in between. :~D

The sort of magenta colored ribbons over on the far left are the hard ones to get - USDAA qualifying ribbons. In AKC you can get a qualifying score with as little as 85% (in Novice) but in USDAA you have to have a perfect score of 100% -- no knockdowns of course but also no refusals, off courses, or time faults -- to get a Q even in Starters (the equivalent of Novice). Plus to get your title, you have to have 3 qualifying scores in Standard, plus one each in Jumpers, Gamblers, Snooker, and Pairs Relay. (While we were trying for our one single pitiful Gamblers Q (Gamblers is AWFUL - dog has to work away from the handler over 3-4 obstacles), we got 3 Qs in Jumpers, Snooker & Pairs for those individual titles as well. It took some time to get that Gamblers Q, but we finally did it.)
Logan did obedience, didn't he? (Our trainer told us right out she thought Shelley "would be happier in agility." She was right.)
