We are a dedicated group of dog enthusiasts focused on teaching people how to train their dogs to be good canine citizens and achieve the bond they were meant to share.

Our Obedience and Rally Trials, Sunday, September 28, at SOTC went off without a hitch.
We want to thank everyone who helped make that happen.
Most importantly, we thank our Obedience judge, Joe Caputa, and our Rally judge Joyce Rienzo, and her assistant steward Kelly Sacvone, who judged with humor, compassion and enthusiasm. The right judges make all the difference, and these talented professionals were a pleasure to show under.
We would like to thank our show co-chair Michele Calvosa for a well-run day -- as well as NDTC volunteers Liz Shannon, Patricia Burnside, Ken Smith, Ted Scala, Kiran Adele Gyllenhammer, Florence Scarinci, Rosanne Mamo and Aimee and John Pontrelli. And thank you to Margaret Uminsky for delighting the qualifiers with her lovely handmade prizes.
Proving the importance of having good friends, we also greatly appreciate the hospitality of the Suffolk Obedience Training Club and their members who helped, in particular president Judith Duck for inviting us back, Fainne O'Donoghue, Sue Levine and Teri Nolan, who also served as trial secretary,
If we missed any helpers, we apologize.
We offer our heartfelt thanks to all our exhibitors and sincerest congratulations to everyone who qualified. In particular, we recognize the extraordinary accomplishments of Mindy Costanza, High Combined (Obedience), Sue Levine, High in Trial Obedience), Patricia Burnside, High Combined (Rally) and Charlotte Firkser, Highest Combined Triple (Rally).
Let's give a special round of applause to Club members Patricia Burnside and Sasha for First Place in Rally Excellent, qualifying in Rally Advanced B and First Place in Rally Excellent B, Naomi Knox and Vixen for First Place with the only score of 100 for the day in Rally Advanced A and their title, Rena Dershowitz and Sierra for Fourth Place in Open B, Rosanne Mamo and Georgia for Second Place in Rally Novice A, and Ken Smith and Le'A for Third Place in Rally Novice A.
It was clear from their performances that all our exhibitors have very special relationships with their dogs! And we are so happy that they shared their pups with us.
Gratefully,
Jamileh-Sofia diGuida
