POINTS MAKE PRIZES

Handlers who compete at obedience shows are encouraged to list the places they gain throughout the year in the club's "points book". The club secretary allocates points for every rosette gained, and at the end of the season the points are totted up and trophies or cups are awarded to the best dogs in each class. Trophies are also awarded to dogs who have made great progress throughout the year, and to handlers who have persevered with difficult dogs.
