Agility-Hounds for the Holidays

Dec. 5-6, 2013.  Another great time in Milwaukee with lots of Chicago Club PWD friends.  Julie and Maliboo were competing in Excellent.  On Thursday, Maliboo got her 3rd straight Excellent Jumpers qualifying run - 3 for 3! - for her AXJ title.  Quite an accomplishment, but Julie and Maliboo were a TEAM.  On Friday, Maliboo Q'd again in Jumpers - 4 for 4! - for her first Masters leg.  What a girl!

Nov. 7-10 Kalamazoo, MI  What a weekend!  Thursday:  Blake "Marshview Uno Blake Bear" was Winners Dog for 2 points.  Combined with his 4 recent majors, Blake earned his New Champion title!




Friday: Blake's brother Joey was Best of Breed.  In addition to getting him a trip to the Group ring, it gave him enough points for a new Grand Champion title!  Icing on the cake that day was that Joey's mom Maliboo was his Best Of Opposite Sex.

Saturday: Joey Best of Breed again.  What a thrill to watch him in the Group ring a 2nd time.





Sunday: It was the girl's turn. Page was Winners Bitch from the 6-9 month class, for her 1st point!  Brother Clipper showed great as well.

Meanwhile, in Salisbury, MD, Journey picked up a 4 point major win from the 9-12 month class.  That's 5 points already for this puppy.




And finally, in Minnesota, page and Clipper's sister Chelsea was showing with her owner-handler mom Kristine and took Breed and Puppy honors.  Way to go, team Chelsea! Wish I could have been in 3 places at once.

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!
