Friday was the PWD Club of Greater Chicago's supported show in Grayslake, IL. Maliboo, Sadie and Cuervo there. Sadie showed well and Cuervo earned a Grand Champion Select ribbon. Maliboo is still competing in the puppy class. She won the Best in Sweepstakes from the 9-12 mo. class. She went on to be named Best Puppy in the class competition, and won the Puppy Working Group for the second time! On Sunday, she took Reserve Winner's Bitch.

Agility, Rally

June 13, 2010
Martha and I had a busy weekend of performance. Helen was supposed to come along, but came in season the day before trials :-(
Friday we had agility in Manitowoc, and Martha got her 2nd leg in Excellent Standard, nailing every contact and finishing in first! We missed the weaves on her Jumpers run, but it was really my fault.
Saturday we did Rally in Ixonia, where she earned the 3rd leg for her Rally Excellent title! She could have improved on the Figure 8, but it was my point deductions that cost her the 2nd place ribbon.
Today it was back to agility. The weather was great and the courses challenging. Martha hit every contact, every tight turn and every jump - and blew me off on the weavepoles on both runs. Guess I know what we'll be working on next!
All in all, lots of good stuff in the runs, tons of fun and PWD company at the trial. Can't wait 'til next time!

Canadian CH

June 4, 2010
Marshview Kennels has just gone international. In the same week we found out we have a European champion, we were just informed we have a Canadian champion also! Cuervo returned to Canada this weekend and today was awarded Best of Breed over Specials. He went on to compete in the Group and was given a Group 4 placement. With the points earned today, he has achieved a Canadian championship!
