Mock PSA Trial

[qy10]

My team is prepping for the upcoming trial in July. We were finally able to practice outside, so I took that opportunity to get some photos of the team in action!

Aria is a Belgian Malinois that is a validated patrol dog as well as narcotic detection dog.

Atty is also a Belgian Malinois. She was also a patrol dog as well as narcotics detection dog. She is now a senior, at 9 years old.

Tasha is a young long haired German Shepherd Dog.

Havoc is a Belgian Malinois. It might not look like it in these pictures, but she's actually a very affectionate and sensitive dog.

Lotus is a Donovan Pinscher who has a background in French Ring and Schutzhund.

Woof!

PSA = Protection Sports Association (would be my guess).

"PSA"?

It stands for Protection Sport Association. Dogs are trained in obedience as well as protection for real life scenarios, including a car jacking scenario. Although, they are scenarios that could happen in real life, it is a competitive sport. These are not personal protection dogs.

Unforunately, we didn't get many photos of my dog working.
