June 2009--July 2009
Cagney was awarded Reserve Winners Bitch at the Twin Cities Vizsla Club Specialty in Jordan, MN the beginning of June.
My dear, dear Tempe was Reserve Winners Bitch to the major (her 8th!!) at the Fargo-Moorhead Shows the beginning of June. The next day she was diagnosed with Myasthenia Gravis, a rare neuromuscular disease. Please see her page to read more about her story. She is a trooper, and I will fight with and for her as long as she is willing to do so. Most of these two months were dedicated to my school schedule as well as getting Tempe better. She has improved very much over the course of a couple of months! We will pray for continued improvement, and hopefully remission.

August 1, 2--After a couple of month hiatus from the show world, I entered Cagney in a show in LaCrosse, WI. She did marvelously----going Winners Bitch on Saturday for 1 point.

He did awesome, and Jesi has done a great job of getting this little baby ready for the ring!

October--December 2009
The end of the year proved to be very busy! It was hunting season, where Jeff made a couple of trips out to SD where the birds were plentiful and the dogwork was incredible! It is amazing how those wild birds can prove to be great trainers for the dogs.
The end of October, Melissa traveled to Charlotte, NC to attend the VCA National Events. I had a wonderful time, and the dogs showed well. Cagney made the "cut" in both sweepstakes and the regular classes. Rowan proved he could compete with the big boys and placed 4th in Sweepstakes and 3rd in the regular classes. I was very proud of Mr. Rowan!!
In November, I entered both Cagney and Tempe in a local show. Tempe was WB/BOW for 2 pts on Saturday to finish her CH and Cagney was WB/BOW for 2 pts on Sunday to finish her CH! Amazing!
