I will resume the birthday updates soon — I need to nudge a couple of Wildflower families and also do one for Pozy — but we have been showing since Thursday at the Missoula dog show so it has been busy.
Capella
Yesterday was especially fun.
Sparkle, Claire, and Capella
Sparkle was awarded first place in the Veterans Working Group, Claire finished her Rally Novice title, and Capella was Winners Bitch (but with only nine showing it was one short of the major she needs towards her championship). A fun day!
On Friday I showed Suzanne’s Sundance in obedience and we finished his CD (obedience title).
That gave Sundance the BMDCA Working Dog award, which requires a draft title and titles from at least two other performance events — he has tracking and now obedience. Very cool.
Today is the last day of the show — and the last show I will do this summer. Capella is starting to blow coat and so our summer will be all about staying home and training for fall — with one exception. Claire has a track in the local tracking test next weekend 🍀🙏🏽
And speaking of shows, congratulations are due for Alison and Sparkler Kiri.
New UD title (VERY HARD) and first UDX leg (EXTRA VERY HARD). Amazing and wonderful and all those kinds of words.
Thought for the day: Accomplishments are fun!
Happy Sunday to you.
