VONDARCOR VALAK ✨IGP1 ✨

A: 99 • B: 91 • C: 95 = 285 VG

VALAK gained his IGP1 at the Fenrir Dogsport Club trial over the weekend.

We have a lot of really great trainers and friends in our corner and I am thankful for each and every one 👊🏼

Thanks to Ronny Huemke for his safe and consistent Helper work, and testing VALAK at the trial!! 🥊

Thank you to Judge, Ms Cheryl Chaffey for her fair critique of VALAK’s work - invaluable feedback for our future progression!!

Fenrir - as always, awesome club, highly supportive crew of people. Well run trial and workshop before and after the trial!!

Congratulations to everyone else who trialled - it was awesome to see you all on the field 🌟

I can’t thank the big fella enough. He just shows up, happy to work, equally in every phase. He sheds pressure so easily, any nerves I have, he eats up with his “we got this” attitude. I’m glad I decided you should stay with me. The bestest boy. Thanks VALAK 🖤

This is a hard goodbye 😔

VONDARCOR BRAVO and VONDARCOR BANDIT - aka retired QLD Police Dogs BRAVO and BEAU. Both served formidably in their 8 years of service, passing away within just a month and a half of each other at 11 years old.

11 years ago, a phone call from PD BEAU’s Handler answering a puppy announcement advert became, for us, the beginning of what continues to be a great working relationship with the QLD Police Dog Squad. Yet for their Handlers and families, so much more. I cannot be more proud of the dogs they became at the hands of their Handlers - both providing loving homes into their retirement.

Both BRAVO and BEAU were known for their high tracking aptitude and no nonsense character and attitude to their work. It was their social stability, especially within their family environment that was remarkable - to be able to transition from work to loved family member certainly made them the full package.

Grateful to both men and their families, our thoughts are with you.

Rest easy PD’s BRAVO and BEAU - now with your dad, BANDIT 🤍
