Results and pics from Lethbridge

To begin with, we must thank the Lethbridge club for all their hard work in putting together another successful show. A handful of dedicated workers and we appreciate it all!!!

Congratulations to Lore and her dogs, Remi, Daisy-May, and Ginger on the nice work in the performance ring.  


Remi:  finished his Advanced Rally title and his CGN, one leg on his Excellent Rally
Ginger: finished her Advanced Rally title and Her CGN
Daisy-May; Finished her Excellent Rally title with high herding breed

Drover,  another one of the cardigan gang, at the hands of Bryn ( 10 years old) got her CGN and improved at her Pre novice so much between Friday and Sunday it was amazing.  Although she did not pass she went from almost no score to not passing by 2.  for a 10 year old I thought that was pretty amazing.

Fido, co-owned by Gloria Graham, picked up three points in the conformation ring.

Congratulations to Sharlet and Justice, her German shepherd puppy handled by Larry Clark to 3 Best of Breed wins,  2 more Puppy Groups, and a Group 4 win in the adult conformation.  Justice sits at 7 points.

Congratulations to Judy Hunt and Kona, flat-coat retriever on a wonderful win!
After three days of competition, Kona not only achieved her CD title but she also won the High Aggregate trophy and gets to keep it for an entire year!  
Kona was also smokin' hot in the Scent Hurdle on Saturday night!


Kona 

Happy for Judi and Drummer Boy, sheltie owned by Darryl Snowdon. Drummer qualified twice in the Open A obedience ring and picked up High in Class for his efforts.
Drummer was a rock star in the scent hurdle Saturday.  Noisy though.

Castle set the bar for the CGN participants on Friday night giving an absolutely unflappable performance for judges Andrea Knibbs and Bill Nykiel. 
Judi was so proud of him.

Thanks, Sylvia, for helping prepare him for this.
Now he can go visiting to the Seniors' lodges as a canine visitor.

Huge thanks to the Due South Scent Hurdle team of Julie, Betty, Jagged, Max, Drummer, Kona and Sport for a valiant effort on Saturday.
We came in third place!  
Most of the time, the dogs were solid and focused, despite the noise and chaos of the moment.
We will continue to practice over the winter.  The sport really lets the dogs rip after a hard day of dog show competition.  Gotta love it. 


See you all at the Fort Macleod A & W on Saturday, November 30th at 10:00 a.m..
Those riding on the float should bring a blanket or quilt in case the weather is inclement.
Lore says that there will be bales of hay to sit on and music to sing along with. 
Carol, Tubby, Nikki and I will bring cart dogs.
