Tracking

Orlando Dog Training Club offers one day of AKC tracking tests each year –  in December.   ODTC does not offer Tracking training classes.

ODTC’s tracking tests are held outdoors at Lee Vista Center in Orlando, Florida.

December 6, 2009 ~ Test Results

The ODTC Tracking Test went very well on Sunday.
Two of the six dogs entered passed their TD tracks to earn their new Tracking Titles and were able to take home the glove! Thank You to Tracking Chair George Light for all his organization of people and equipment. Thank You to track layers Paul Reep, Martha Chamberlain, Ron Handy, Maggie Eslinger and Mary Lynn Kontrafouris (a volunteer and member of Tracking Club of Central Florida). Mary Lynn came all the way from Inverness and then volunteered to lay two tracks even though Paul said he would do it! Thanks Mary Lynn!

AKC Rep. Diane Schultz was in attendance testing prospective Tracking Judge Suzanne Bird. It was nice to see both of them and to learn things from their perspectives. Congratulations to Suzanne for passing her test and pending AKC approval will become a new tracking judge!
