Moka - the therapy dog



Moka passed her therapy dog evaluation at the age of 17 months. She will soon join her grandma Moli and great grand uncle Moby to visit nursing homes once we have received formal approval from the head office.

The evaluation was quite intense. Moka did not react to any noise or strange situation at all. Everyone was so impressed with how calm she is being a puppy.

Moka passed her CGN testing

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x8QGfc38Iow&feature=youtu.be

After taking Best of Breed, I took her in for CGN (Canine Good Neighbour) testing. She passed it with flying colour. The evaluator was very thorough. She examined her and even picked up her feet. She made her do the 3 minutes isolation with me in hiding, with rain coming and wind blowing. Moka was totally calm.
She is only 17 months old.

This is the link for the requirement for CGN.

SCA 2014 - Day 6 - Bitch class

This day was for the girls.
 
Moka was entered in the Bred-By-Exhibitor (BBE) class. The dog had to be handled by its breeder. It was a large class with 30+ bitches.

I couldn't remember how many times we were send around the ring.

There were getting fewer and fewer in the centre line up.
Moka just kept going and going.
She was moving better each time.
 
She never lost focus.

She took 4th.

SCA 2014 - Day 5 - Dog class

This was the day for the boys.
 
Beckham took First in the 12-18th month class and got to compete for the Winner Dog.
 
He looked so proud of himself.

 
This is Baby Beckham in his winning photo.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Grandpa Wizard was showing in the 10+ veteran class. He doesn't look his age.


SCA 2014 - Day 4 - Sweepstake and sight-seeing

Since we had finished early today in sweep and Vanessa had to leave for work, we did some sight seeing.
There was a sculpture park near town centre.
 
 
The doggies are good models.

They were  having a Samoyed conference.
