| 8/10 Exciting news from Cook Inlet Kennel Club show weekend, Team Topaz took BOB and a Group 2 on Sunday making two group placing females in the H litter! She also picked up a grand championship major. WAY TO GO GIRLS! Dzurath was looking really good and took BOB two days with one grand championship major. He did get pulled in group day 1 but missed group on day two since he was off getting certified in tracking - what a good boy! Thanks to Sherri Sims and Jamie Hunt for showing Hailey for me and to Patty Biggins for handling Dzurath. 7/10 Nice weekend in Kenai, Team Topaz finished their AXJ and picked up two legs on the OA ( a teeter title). Dzurath was a VERY good boy and earned his NA and NAJ. He is starting to think this is pretty fun! Hailey and I had a less than stellar weekend in agility . Some bad handling on my part! She did however end the weekend on a high note by taking a Group 1 under Denise Dean - Thank you Denise. Again my appreciation to Sherry Sims and Jamie Hunt for showing her for me. 6/10 Heard through the grapevine (now confirmed :}, Team Topaz finished their open FAST today. Congrats!!

Thank you Sherry Sims for handling my girl for me! 5/10 Team Topaz welcome a new addition to their household. Missi Dog Arabat has landed and is enjoying her new home. We look forward to their new adventures! Thanks to Sasha and Eva for making this happen! Team Topaz finished their NADAC Elite Tunnelers and their Novice Touch-N-Go titles this past weekend. They did pick up a few other legs too. Hailey finished her Novice Regular title and obtained a few legs in Open jumpers, Novice Touch-No-Go's, Open Tunnelers and Novice Chances. This was out third NADAC trial and are still learning things! Dzurath was a good boy and picked up some Novice Jumpers, Novice Tunnelers and Novice Regular legs. He did so well for me, we are still learning about each other and how to work together. A big thank you to Vineta Hesson for sending photos of Doc and Sam taking at the National in Texas.

They also picked up a AXJ leg! Click and treat! A huge thank you to Patty Biggins, and family, for allowing Dzurath, Impressions of Synedocke, to come live with us. He has been here a couple of days now and he is a wonderful dog. Hailey is absolutely thrilled to have someone to play with. Mark and I could not be more pleased with our new boy! Our house has been way to quiet since loosing Lane and Dzurath has decidedly changed that! We are sorry for their loss but thrilled with our gain. Thank you again Patty, John and Lexie! 1/10 Well, Hailey has decided not to have a litter so time to regroup and we will not be breeding Hailey again. Hailey finished '09 #14 All-breed and 4 points out of the top 20 in the breed - Canine Chronicle - from 8 shows in Alaska. Team Topaz finished Topaz's OAJ in WA! Nice way to start off the New Year!
