Rommel and Ziris earn their WAC!!!

Tuesday, November 18th, 2008 | Uncategorized | No Comments

For those who dont know what a WAC is, it is the DPCA (Doberman Pinscher Club of America) Temperament Test. The test is actually called the WAE (Working Aptitude Evaluation) but you earn a WAC (Working Aptitude Certification) if you pass. Unfortunately, the test doesn’t have a very high pass rate.

Thanks to the DPC of Charlotte and evaluator John Schoeneman. We had a great time.

Here are some photos of Rommel and I. (We didnt get any pics of Z, she was one of the first dogs to go through and at that time I didn’t have anyone to take photos)

Ready to start (Dont you dare laugh at my dingleball hat. It was cold!)

He pretty much drug me through the whole thing.

The rattling can

Being a good boy, he thought that guy was pretty funny acting.

Rommel says “YAY, did I pass?”

He gets a pet (but is still looking for that evil man in the trench coat..haha)

YAY Rom!

Thanks to EllenM for taking the photos of Rom today! Also, congrats to you and Rescue Rex for passing the WAC also.

Brownie - Tug to Sleeve

Saturday was Brownies first time biting the sleeve at training. This doesn’t seem like much to some, but to me it means he is growing up. (sniffle, sniffle) I swear I am such a sap… (anyone who reads this blog knows that though…haha)

It seems like not so long ago, I was able to hold him in one hand. Now he is over 70 lbs and just turned 8 months old!!!

Anyway….
