This is an amazing feat by Mr. Pat and Pam, who completed the 769 yard VST track in under 20 minutes. According to the AKC, "A Champion Tracker (CT) is awarded only to those dogs that have
earned titles at all three tracking levels – TD or TDU, TDX and VST. If a dog is
awarded the CT title, he is among the elite of those active in tracking."
