We had the pleasure of having Working Judge Mr. Leonardo Hernandez from Costa Rica in Nicaragua. A 4 day seminar about IPO. We went over the disiplines Obedience, Tracking and Protection.
We also learn new techniques in how to communicate with our dogs, their process of learning, and implementing them, on a positive reinforcement and a pleasant manner for the dog.

We hope and wish to continue with her training... :)
