New Champion

[gmh]

I am very pleased to introduce Ch Tijac Elite Model RN,OA,OAJ. Max finished his championship yesterday at Portland"s Stumptown Cluster show under Judge Loraine Boutwell. He needed only one point to finish but he decided to go out in style with his third major.

A very big thank you goes to Cathy Ceely his breeder, handler & cheering section at obediance/agility trials. I know he made her work for each and everyone of his points.

Thanks, Gail and HUGE Congratulations to you and Max! Finishing a dog is certainly a team effort and your excellent care and conditioning of Max was a key factor in his finishing!

Next up: More agility titles and, hopefully, a MACH!! :D

Gail,
Congratulations to you, Kathy and Max. I hope you enjoyed the process. I know initially it is very exciting and then the novelty wears off unless you show them as a special every now and then. How old is Max and do you intend to show him again? Perhaps at the National?

Congratulations and good luck to you and Max's future.

Thanks for the congratulations.

Max is my first show dog, so it's been a thrill to see him through to his championship, but he doesn't enjoy the conformation ring. Loves going to the shows, socializing, & the abundance of treats but doesn't think he should be on a leash. We also train in agility and at 4+yrs we have plenty of time to work towards his Mach. Max will be in Kansas for the nationals competing in agility, obedience, & rally.

My girl Mira (Stardust Xmen's Mirage) is being shown in conformation,and enjoys it. She will keep me going to the shows for a while. She will also be shown at the nationals, conformation as well as agility.

Thanks,
Gail
