The sadness of my day with this being the one year mark of the passing of
Radar was made a little easier by his grandson Bosco. He earned his
Championship today in Fond Du Lac, WI going Best of Winner's-Winner's Dog
for his third major. I could not be more proud of what this gorgeous boy has
accomplished. At the same show, Boca earned a major toward her Grand
Championship. She is on a roll.
14-15
Our Cruiser's West team hit the ring. Karma earns 2 more points going
Winner's Bitch/Best of Winner's both days in Brighton, CO. Her cute cousin Ila
was right behind her, at just 6 months old, she went Reserve both days, great
for the first time in the ring for both her and owner Caitlin!

Darlin' whelps 7 gorgeous boys!

We headed to DeKalb, IL for the Easter weekend to get the puppies in the ring
before heading to Nationals. On Saturday, Kato goes Reserve Winner's Dog
and Ema goes Reserve Winner's Bitch. Sunday was a super day, with Playar
going Winner's Dog for his first points. Big brother Maverick also went Select
Dog both days for another major.

Karma does it again, tearing up the agility courses. On the 6th, she received a
double Q in Open Jumpers and Novice Standard. On the 8th she did it again.
This time after moving up to open in both, she received a QQ in Open Jumpers
with Weaves and Open Standard. Go Karma and Jenny!

The word of the day started out as MAJOR, as in Bosco and earning his second
in West Allis, WI, bringing him to 14 points and so close to his championship.
The word of the day ended with QUALIFY, as in Newt earning his 3rd Senior
Hunter leg in less than desirable wind conditions.

Started out the day with Darlin' being confirmed pregnant. She and McKinley
are expecting April 11 puppies.
Finished the day with a giant grin, Zeke wins the Gateway Vizsla Club Specialty
in St Louis for his BISS!! At just over two, this boy has his CH, MH, GCH and now
a BISS. Congrats to Pat & Jacqueline Koprowski and co-owner/handler Tad
Walden on this wonderful win.

18-19
This weekend finds me headed south to Des Moines, IA again. This time with a
different group of dogs, but with similar results. Tucker earned Winner's Dog
both days with cousin Bosco earning Reserve. Young Maverick was Best of
Breed both days, adding to his Grand Champion points. Boca enters the breed
ring for the first time as Champion and goes Best of Opposite Sex both days,
beginning her quest towards her Grand Championship. Willow also adds to her
GCH total with Select Bitch points both days. Couldn't be prouder!!
17-19
Having been in the ring less than enough times to fill two hands, Newt hits the
Denver cluster and Specialty with Stars in his eyes. He was Select Dog all
three of these days to bring him to 19 points in 4 attempts.
Also hitting the Denver cluster is Karma. She flies through the agility course,
earning herself an NAJ (Novice Jumpers) leg. She follows that up the next day
with a CGC certificate. Watch out, this girl is on fire! So very proud of these
accomplishments, go Cruiser's West!

Some weekends staying home brings better news than hitting the road. On
Saturday, Cruiser's East did not disappoint. Bosco started out going Winner's
Dog for his first major! Older sister Boca did not want him having all the
attention, Boca went Winner's Bitch and Best of Opposite Sex over specials for
a special New Championship win. Congrats to Frank and Teresa Rizzo for their
first Champion and thank you for all your hard work with this beautiful girl. Two
weekends, two new Champions...what a great start to 2012.
21-22
This weekend finds me headed south to Des Moines, IA. Thank goodness I
have wonderful help at home with my mom coming over to watch all of my
dogs! The weekend away was well worth it though, as Copper hits the
Championship title board. Saturday he goes Winner's Dog, Best of Winner's
and Best of Breed earning his Championship title at just 2 months shy of his 8th
birthday. The joy is that this boy had very few weekends away, and he was
able to earn his title quickly.
Sunday Copper was a move-up to Breed and he did not disappoint going Best of
Breed for his first Grand Championship points, a major. Later that day, Farmer
earned a Bred By Exhibitor Sporting Group 3.
14-15
I head to Cruiser's East and Oshkosh, WI for another fun filled weekend. On
Saturday, Boca earns a 3 point major, going Winner's Bitch and Best of
Opposite over a special to come within 1 point of her Championship. Arlo, a
Radar Grandson, goes Winner's Dog and Best of Winner's for his first major.
Sunday we are thrilled to have Darlin earn a major going Winner's Bitch and
Best of Winner's. Bosco goes Reserve Winner's Dog and already just a few
weeks into the new year we have much to Celebrate.
The Celebration continues with Cruiser's West, as Karma earns yet another
title in Colorado. This time her RN is added to the alphabet soup following her
name.
7-8
It is always to start the year at a local show full of BUZZ!! Young Maverick
showed that he has matured, he earned Best of Breed on Saturday for a GCH 5
point major and goes Select Dog on Sunday for another major and is already
1/3 of the way towards earning his Grand Championship.
Meanwhile his sister Willow earns a Select Bitch for yet another major on
Saturday bringing her within striking distance of her Grand Championship.
We welcome 2012 with excitement and energy. So many wonderful things
were started last year, I can't wait to see what can be accomplished this year!
