Lomita dog obedience match
The Lomita Obedience Training Club held its obedience and conformation match on Sunday.
I got there late, but took a few photos; looks like it was very successful. The club offers ongoing classes for all levels of training.
Here's an impressive line-up of dogs that were commanded to sit and stay in place while their owners disappeared for three minutes. I guess the third dog from the left got tired and decided to lie down.


Looks like a good, clean jump by this golden retriever going after the lure on the ground as the judge looks on.
Earlier in another ring, that same dog and owner were thrilled with their successful finish.

These guys (below) are headed home at the end of the day.




Daily Breeze reporter Donna Littlejohn has shared her homes with a succession of wonderful, funny, and occasionally difficult canines -- Muffin, Fritz, Ellie, Mercy, Pilgrim and now Cowboy, an Australian shepherd-border collie, and Tess, a border collie.

But they've really brought so much more than that -- like laughter and joy, some unexpected life lessons, and more than a few tears along the way.
