Flatcoat Results


News from Sarah Novak and her versatile boy, Kaleb at the AKC Flatcoat Specialty. Now, on to the Nationals in Agility at Spruce Meadows.

"Kaleb had a great Specialty, beyond anything I would have imagined, having him there participating was good enough for me especially after his Torsion/GDV and Surgery 8 weeks ago!

Wednesday, Regional Specialty:
- Kaleb won his Veterans Male 7-9 Class, made the cut in Breed and went on to win Best of Opposite in Specialty!! It was thrilling under Judge Vivianne Bowen (Clandrift), England. Considering he is Neutered and has shaved spots I was thrilled! She commented on his hard physical condition, a workman-like type dog.
- He also placed 2nd in the Working Retriever Class.

Thursday Rally Obedience:
- K scored a 99, High in Class and Finished his Rally Advanced Title, he placed 2nd in the Afternoon class with another qualifier.

Friday National Specialty:
- K placed 4th in a large Veteran Sweeps class under Judge Alice Andrews
- Kaleb placed 3rd in his vet Male 7-9 class under Judge James Irvine.

Kaleb also took part in the Judges seminar, where they discuss the dogs they judged and what they liked and didn't like about the dogs! It was a cool experience and to hear each judge's interpretation of why they made their choices as they did.

Kaleb also earned the Beauty and Brains award for placing in both Conformation and a Performance event."
