Last Friday and Saturday we were in Ellsworth, WI, where I earned some more Q’s towards my scent work goals. Each day I did two Detective and one Masters Interior run. I earned two more Q’s towards my Detective Title and one Q towards my Master Interior and Overall Masters Titles. The Northstar Rottweiler Club has really fancy Q ribbons for Detective which I like a lot. I also earned second place in my one Master Interior Q.
It was a fun two days. These trials are big and can be a bit chaotic but this year it was very organized. Mom volunteered on both days that I ran my searches. Olivia came along for moral support and as my coach. Since Saturday was Gramma’s birthday, I didn’t compete that day. We were able to crate inside the one building which was nice and cool. It is nice to also not be in the car all day.
Now I only need one more Master Interior Q for my Master Interior Title and my overall Masters Title. For Detective I now need four more Q’s. A dog needs ten perfect runs for a Detective Title. Hopefully I will get into some trials again soon and finish up these last titles. We still have sports for the next four weekends, but nose work not scent work. It is the busy season and we love it!
My GBGV Life is happy, so we’re joining Comedy Plus for Happy Tuesday!
You are going to get that detective title because you are a very smart boy, Nelson, and you have one heck of a sniffing nose!
Thank you. I am looking forward to getting it, hopefully this year.
we are sure you will get the toitles to become the greatest sniffer star of all times…
I don’t know about that, Olivia is still better than I am but I am trying to pass her up.
Way to go, Nelson!!
Very nice that they had indoor space for waiting.
Only because Mom was volunteering but it was nice to be out of the car and to watch people doing stuff in the space.
We love seeing you out competing Nelson, and we bet Olivia is a great coach!

She gets really mad and has temper tantrums every time I leave to search. She will get her turn again in about ten days. She is a good coach, though.
Your guys are always so busy!
Pretty much every weekend for about four months but now is the time we don’t do much from mid November to March.
I know you’re going to succeed in these searches. I know you will.
Thank you for joining the Happy Tuesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Happy Tuesday. Scritches to all the pups and a hug to mom. ♥
I hope to get into some more Scent Work Trials. There are not a lot to enter in mid summer because of the heat.
Nelson. Olivia and Mom please say
Happy Belated Bday to Grammie!!
Olivia is a very special sister and travel companion.
Hugs Cecilia
Olivia and I are the sports nuts as we love competing. Bailie handles everything with Gramma as she is her personal therapy dog. We will tell Gramma another happy birthday for you.
So proud of you both ~ you are even cute in your crates ~ although would prefer you out of them ~ Bravo for all your hard work ~ hugs,
Wishing you good health, laughter and love in your days,

It is a nice break from sitting in the car but yes, we would prefer to be loose.
WOOHOO!!! Way to go! Praying that you can get into your scent work trials and finish! Whew what a busy life!!!
We go back to nose work for the next month, then maybe in July I can get some scent work done.
Great work and good luck with all your sports over the next weeks!
We have another four to six weekends and then a bit of a break. It is always fun, so we don’t mind being busy.
WOW, congratulations! You really are quite amazing!
I’m really getting good at my sniffing work and it sure makes it all more fun!
We have no doubt you’ll reach your goals this event season.
I am hopeful to start winding up titles here soon.
