Golden causes upset at Alaska Field Trial!

[DEDEYE]

Oh my goodness! The fight for the blue ribbon was on as Linda Wiacek and her big silly golden Talins Heart Act To Follow MH *** "Trip" set out for the last bird. Slow and steady as usual, he pushed on out to the far shore, stepping on the bird. With that last spectacular mark, HE WON THE FREAKING AMATEUR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is quite big news since no one can seem to remember the last time a golden retriever won an all age stake up here! Pretty sweet! Guess I could throw a few more birds for him...

GO TRIP & LINDA! ON THE WAY TO AFC!!!!!!!!

Oh dear, I didn't know that a poor little fluffy dog could survive in Alaska. I hope he has lots of sweaters and bandanas!

Congratulations, Linda and Trip! Now that I know that it is possible, I may come up there one of these summers and compete.

I'd take those odds, Steve!

Anybody hear from Judy Chute? Somebody needs to call and see if she's okay...a Golden winning an all-age stake will have her absolutely apoplectic!!

But wait a minute - I thought the water was cold in Alaska? Must be a typo.
