THE Bahamas Kennel Club held its annual all-breed Obedience and Agility Trials at the Atlantis resort over the weekend. Although the obedience competition is in its 31st year, this was the first time the club offered agility trials as well. In addition to support from Atlantis, the show was also sponsored by Purina, which over the past two years had done a great deal to prepare for the addition of the agility component, helping fund seminars, workshops and equipment. One of the highlights of the show was a relay between a US agility team, two Bahamian agility teams and one Puerto Rican agility team. The completion was fierce with all of the teams completing the course in under a minute, but the Puerto Ricans came out on top. Bahamas Team 1 (Glen Koepp and Tara Lavallee) were fierce competitors, coming second, followed closely by Team USA and Bahamas Team 2. Next year, the club said, it hopes to have at least eight teams participate in the event.
