Talbot AKC success!

The girls had another great AKC weekend at the Talbot Kennel Club trial November 2-4. We had hurricane Sandy just a few days before and the Eastern Shore got 10 inches of rain but somehow the field held up and there was no mud and great weather!

Luxx was a little superstar and went 9 for 11 with all first places! She finished her Open Preferred FAST title, and her Open Preferred Standard title! She also got three 10 point Time to Beat Qs!

Jinn had some baby dog distraction moments (like running past the very last obstacle on a GORGEOUS Excellent Std run) but still managed to go 6 for 11 and finished her Open Standard and Open Jumpers with Weaves titles! She also qualified and took first her very first time in Excellent Standard. She only missed qualifying a second time the  next day by running past that darn tire at the very end. Baby dogs!

I couldn't be prouder of my girls, they are really stepping up to fill in the HUGE void left by retiring Mojo. I am actually having fun doing these girls' weekends, though of course I miss running my boy like crazy. I look forward to pursuing more AKC goals with them soon.
