Agility

October 12, 2013  Maliboo q'd today to finish her Open Jumpers With Weaves title!   She will now be competing in Excellent with her best bud, lab Loonna.

Barn Hunt/Agility

September 28, 2013  Maliboo just took up a new sport, and got two Novice Barn Hunt legs in her very first trial today with a 4th place:-).  Now if that isn't a "working-water-dog", I don't know what is!!  Way to go, Julie and Boo!

On the same day, Cuervo was with me in New Berlin doing agility. He scored a perfect 100 and garnered the 2nd place ribbon (we stayed under course time!) for his second Open Jumpers leg.  So proud of him charging the weaves today!

September 14, 2013 Sheboygan  Journey got her 1st confirmation point this weekend!  She just reached the 9-12 month class, and went Winners Bitch for her fist championship point.  This follows her Best of Opposite Sex in Sweeps finish from the 6-9 month class at the MN Regional Specialty in August.  Our Journey has begun!

Agility

Sept.8. 2013 One day trial in Cudahy today. Cuervo and I took the summer off from agility, but this seemed like a good place to start up again.  He's competing in Open with Maliboo right now.   Standard was first and he and Maliboo finished 1-2: she with a perfect score 1st place and a new Open Agility title, he with a 2nd place and first OA leg.  In Jumpers, after slowly, meticulously - albeit correctly - completing the weaves, he had one refusal (still allowable), but it cost too much time and we did not Q.  Still, I was happy with his weaves and concentration - just need to work on that speed next! All in all a good day in agility.

Agility

August 11-12, 2013 Maliboo scored big at the agility trial this weekend with two Double Q's!  Two legs each toward her Open Standard and JWW titles in two days, with placements in all four runs.  What a girl!

Water trial

8/3/13 Pleasant Prairie, WI  Great weekend at the new water site!  Beautiful weather, nice conditions, fun people - and success!  Maliboo was flawless in each of the 4 Courier exercises that precede the Buoy Ball Drop.  Next year Julie will add that.  Joey - whose only been up in WI for a few weeks to train - got his Working Water Dog title on Saturday on his first attempt!  Very enthusiastic worker.

On Saturday, Hogan was very close to Apprentice and on Sunday he nailed it.  The first water title for him and Rachel, again with limited access to water this summer.

 

Last but not least, 8 month old Journey was successful on her 1st attempt at Junior Water Dog.  No photos as the photographer was the person handling!  Very proud of my little girl, and all the Marshview dogs there. 

 

Cuervo  had a 2 year old daughter named Bella there that also got her Apprentice title on Sunday with owner Midge.  Great weekend all around!
