Ella is a 3 year old mixed breed (boxer/bull terrier/akita/english cocker spaniel!!!), that was adopted through the APS of Orange County (now Paws 4 Life) when she was about 6 months old. Ella has been training in Rally obedience at Town and Country for almost 1 year. She has 2 qualifying legs toward a novice APDT rally title. Ella can be nervous in new situations and around dogs she doesn't know, but Rally obedience has helped build her confidence. She looks forward to class night and enjoys the mental stimulation that Rally provides.

9/2009 Ella is awarded her CGC!!!!

7/26/20009: Ella did great today! She Q'ed on her first run, which got her the level 1 APDT rally title. She NQ'ed on the second run, but it was completely my fault (I forgot a sign that was "married" to another, until I had completed the 2nd half, and it was too late to go back and re-try). She seemed to have a really fun time today. Sherman got his RL1 today too, plus another Q in level 1!
