Oracle

CH Oracle of Greatness du Joie de Vie CDX BN GN RM CGCA TKN IGP-1

Owned by Dr. Amanda Ramage

Dr. Amanda Ramage achieved this with her first Beauceron. Amanda and Oracle’s accomplishments span the show ring, precision obedience, Rally, and a three-phase working sport. Learning the skills, rules, and handling required in each venue is an achievement for the person as well as the dog. I am proud of the persistence and thoughtful work Amanda has invested in their partnership.

CH — AKC Champion: competitive conformation wins totaling 15 points, including two major wins under different judges, recognize how closely a dog meets the breed standard. CDX — Companion Dog Excellent: three qualifying Open obedience performances, including off-leash heeling, a drop on recall, retrieves, and jumping exercises. BN — Beginner Novice and GN — Graduate Novice each require three qualifying performances; GN adds skills that prepare a team for Open work.

RM — Rally Master: ten qualifying Master courses, requiring accurate off-leash teamwork through complex signed exercises. CGCA — Community Canine: an advanced manners evaluation in real-life situations. TKN — Trick Dog Novice: demonstrated trained tricks, with a reduced trick requirement for dogs already holding CGC.

IGP1: passing tracking, obedience, and protection in one trial. The dog must follow a human scent trail and indicate articles, perform precise obedience, and demonstrate controlled protection work with releases. Oracle’s record reflects the ability to concentrate, work with energy, and respond to Amanda across very different challenges.
