The amateurs looked pretty good again this weekend!!!!!

Congrats to Joe and Pam!!!!

Also, I guess, there are a few special awards given out for the winner of the Open and the Amatuer at the North Texas Field Trial in the fall. The Honcho award goes to the winner of the Open and the Zip Code award goes to the winner of the Amateur.

Very Cool!

Angie

Keep it going

Pinky is yet another example why no one should have me pick a puppy for them

I bred my bitch Wendy to Archie - a Lean Mac x Ms. Costalot son and had pick

My male washed out at 9 months

His littermates

Trumarc's Tickled Pink (Pinky)
Cache La Poudre Osmerus (Ozzie)
Mr. Oliver D. Place (Ollie)
Huntpup's Freeridin Water Witch (Hazel)

Are all QAA, and most have AA points!

A great litter, with Pinky leading the way!

Congratulations to Mike (Queezy boy) Castelli. Won the Derby with 14 month old Haley! It is her 2nd blue ribbon in three starts I think. This puts her on the derby list

Congrats also to Melanie Foster for this breeding.

I think Mike should have named her "Good Deal Lucile".

I saw something today concerning this I haven't seen in a while.

As the last dog ran the amatuer, this guy came walking up floating on cloud 9 I could tell.

He was so excited that he had just won the derby. I think he came over to tell Mr. Fogg (one golden guy to another). He introduced himself as Mike and that his dog had just won the derby. He was proud of the fact she was only 14 months old and had only ran 3 trials thus far. He was really excited. You could see it in his body language. He went over to share the news with Mr. Fogg and they gave high fives to each other.

For a moment, it took me back in time just a few years ago. A time when I got real excited about things my dog achieved. Why that luster is worn off I'm sure we all question.

Point is.................it was really cool to see someone so excited about their dog. Just thought I'd share. Pretty neat moment.

 

[MardiGras]

Does anyone know any of the other Derby placements?

 

[golden boy 2]

Only 3 dogs finished the derby, I am only guessing but I thought #9 got 2nd and 15 got 3rd but that is only a guess as I was on cloud 9 when #3 wasn't called for 2nd or 3rd!

Oh, I thought Kweezy was dropped.

My bad.

 

[MKaty Gutermuth]

Way to go Martha Russell!!!!!!!!! Katie

 

[Bill Burks]

Way to go Haley!!!
and Mike!!!!!


I have the dubious distinction of handling her in the only derby she hasn't won. The pressure is now on Gassner.
