obedience training

Emmy and Maya went to an obedience class tonight. Emmy did great and Maya...was too crazy and didn't seem to focus...she was ok for Open run-thry, but was everywhere in Utility. At least I can say she loves the Utility exercises, but she needs to calm down !!!

Another leg !

Daisy got her 2nd. leg at Springfield show on Oct. 30th.

Finally !!!



Daisy and I got our first Utility leg on Oct. 16th. at Souhegan Kennel Club Obedience Trial. She tried so hard to stay with me even I was very shaky...she is just a fun dog to work with and always gives me her 100%. Mr. Self, the judge, told me he wanted to take her home : ) I can say he wasn't the only one wanting to take her home. It's very nice to get qualified, but there is nothing better than watching my own dog having fun in a ring.

Louie finished his Rally Excellent title at Souhegan Kennel Club Rally Trial on Oct. 16th. This means he also completed the requirement for NCA Working Achievement Award (WA) !!! Now he is VN. WA. Ch. Fogbank's King Louie, CDX, RE, WRDX, TDD, CGC, TDI.

Penn-Ohio Draft Test

Louie, Maya and I went to Penn- Ohio Newfoundland club draft test. We qualified both Sat. and Sun. to receive a team draft dog title. Yahoo !!! We drove with Oksana with Trident and Donna. 8 hours driving wasn't bad after 14 hours driving to National ! The club did a very nice job to have the test. I hope to go to their tests again in the future.

2010 Newf National

We had a very good time at National. I never expected we could get a few ribbons !!! Louie received the beautiful Versatile Newfoundland certificate and huge ribbon. He also got ribbons for his second placement in Rally Novice with score 99 and for his first placement in Versatile Newfoundland class. I could show him in BOB competition !!! Drover showed very well, especially in his 12-15 months sweeps ! He moved by himself and was very easy to show. He got scared of the speaker noise during his regular class, but showed much better than I imagined. We stayed with Jo and Chance at hotel. Jo and I were both proud that all three intact boys got along.

Critters for Haiti

I took Maya and Drover to attend the Critters for Haiti (a fund raising event) in Boxboro, MA today. We also had our friends, too (Tess with Suzanne and Don, Sam and Roxie with Lori). We all had a very good time. I really loved the pythons and boa constrictors (yes, I love big animals...). The event was successful. I was really glad to be asked to participate in such a wonderful event.
