ABTR encourages all our adopters to take their dogs to obedience and/or agility classes to bond with their dogs and bring out the best their dogs can be. The more time and effort you put into your dog and his training, the better dog you will have.
WHAT IS A TITLE? ?
Not just a brag, not just a stepping stone to a higher title, not
just an adjunct to competitive scores, a title is a tribute to the
dog that bears it, a way to honor the dog, an ultimate memorial. It
will remain in the record and in the memory for about as long as
anything in the world can remain.
And though the dog herself doesn't
know or care that her achievements have been noted, a title says
many things in the world of humans where such things count.
A title says your dog was intelligent, adaptable, and good
natured. It says your dog loved you enough to do the things that
pleased you ,however crazy they may have seemed.
In addition, a title says that you loved your dog, that you loved to spend time with her because she
was a good dog, and that you believed in her enough to give her yet
another chance when she failed, and in the end your faith was justified.
A title proves that your dog inspired you to that special
relationship, enjoyed by so few, that in a world of disposable
creatures, this dog with a title was greatly loved and loved greatly
in return. And when that dear, short life is over, the title remains
as a memorial of the finest kind, the best you can give to a deserving
friend. Volumes of praise in one small set of initials after
the name.
An obedience, agility or herding title is nothing less than
true love and respect, given and recorded permanently.
