My visit to an Eendenkooi

Last week I traveled to the Netherlands and attended the Dutch Club Show, toured an eendenkooi, took a boat ride through the  canals in Amsterdam,  spent time with old friends, and made many new friends.

Eendenkooi: A small pond with several long cone-shaped wickerwork tunnels, used to catch wild ducks. Kooikerhondje, signaled by the Kooi Boss move silently through the reed blinds to lure  ducks into a trap.

perfect score

Lucy was awarded this certificate by KCUSA for earning a perfect score of 100 in AKC Rally.

AKC Rally® is a companion sport to AKC Obedience. It too requires teamwork between dog and handler along with performance skills similar to obedience. Rally provides an excellent introduction to AKC events for new dogs and handlers, and can provide a challenging opportunity for competitors in other events to strengthen their skills. All dogs are eligible to compete in rally.
