Piccolo's Niall Delaney, aka Neely

03/23/2024

Neely went to play in the AKC Veterans class with our friends on St. Patrick's Day 2024 at Dog Owners' Training Club of MD's rally and obedience trials. Veterans is a non-licensed class so nobody "fails," but all dogs would have passed it anyway! (Mary Webb and Nick, Marcia Bresson and Spy, Judge Karen S., Marsha (?) and her 16-year-old Chinese Crested, and Marguerite and Neely.)

Neely completed his URX7 UKC Rally title on April 23. Each URX title requires 10 qualifying scores in Level 2 and 3 in the same trial. He's done that 7 times. Now 11 years old and still doing well, he came from Evelyn Comer and Piccolo's Poodles.

Neely got to play last weekend and finished a title!

Piccolo's Niall Delaney, aka Neely and Hobbes Delaney played in WCRL Rally on Saturday and Sunday at Breakaway Action Dogs, Inc. Neely completed his Rally Veteran Championship with very nice scores each trial. Hobbes finished his Level 2 title on Saturday and started collecting QQs and points toward the ARCH championship.

210 is a perfect score. Results:
—Neely = RLV 210, 208, 210, 208
—Hobbes = RL2-A 209, 210; RL1-B 207, 207; RL2-B, 210, 209

Neely is still the man ... he won the Champion class in Conformation, best of 3 dogs entered, which makes it his third Grand Champion win at 9 years and 9 months old. The judge said that of all the dogs she saw there that day, he had the kind of structure that she'd take into the hunt field. UKC conformation has the poodles in the Gun Dog group.
