August Updates

After taking the month of July off and actaully getting to the cottage every weekend it was back to show scene in August. We started off with MCA which is one of Manitoba's largest 4 day dog shows. On Sunday Rolex was awarded with a Grp 4 by judge Alan Pepper. Because this was the Group VI Club of Manitoba Booster we were awarded with a lovely stuffed teddy bear which immediately became the property of our 5 year old daughter Lynne.
Two weekends later we ventured off to Yorkton SK where Rolex was awarded with a Group 1 from judge Jan Buchanan, Group 2 from judge Chris Nelson and a Group 3 from Leanne Bateman. Picture can be found in the SpecialD Stars page.
Off to the United States
Jul 03 07
We did a few shows in the United States in the month of June. Starting out with Fargo, then a few weeks later going to the Cambridge MN shows.
Our whippet, Chase, earned his second major in Fargo by winning - Winners Male, Best of Winners and Best of Opposite Sex. In Cambridge Chase earned a few more points by winning Winners Male and Best of Winners. Chase now requires 3 singles in the US.
Rolex made his adult debut in the US. His first time down there he was just 6 months old. He won Best of Winners all three days in Fargo. In Cambridge he won Best of Winners two of the three days. Unfortunately there were not enough dogs for majors but he is off and running on his American Championship.
