October 2015: Maida and I entered the Cobequid Kennel Club Dog shows on Thanksgiving Weekend! We wanted to give her one last time to shine in the ring before she takes an extended break for motherhood. We won Best of Breed both days and a Group 4 on Sunday under Swedish Judge Goran Bodegard! |
|
October 2015: We entered Mav in his very first "dog show" !
The Beagle Club of Canada was holding a sanction match on the Friday evening before the Cobequid Kennel Club shows so we thought we would help Mavie feel included by entering him in the match! It was like he knew he was supposed to be a show dog and ROCKED IT! Judged by Alison Foley, he won an Altered Working Group 1st and went on for Best in Match, but lost to a beautiful and well deserving German Shepherd. Mav and I had a BLAST and you will definitely see him in the Match ring again!
|
September 2015: We found out that Maida finished as #3 Alaskan Malamute Bitch in Canada for 2014 by beating out 32 other Malamutes! So proud of our girl!! |

We ended the weekend with Four Select Bitch Wins for a total of 8 more points toward her CKC Grand Champion Title (Just 4 more points to go!) Many thanks to Breeder Judges Darren Walker and Cheryl Paterson for the wins :) We had an awesome time in Thunder Bay!
April 2015: Maida has a cameo on Global News' Dog Talk! The segment was all about Raw feeding so Maida was happy to tag along and show off her beautiful Raw-fed Coat and Teeth :)

` April 2015: Maida and Lynsay get a Group First under Judge Norman Deschuymere of Belguim, and a Group Second under Judge Johannes Shepers from the Netherlands in day one of the 2015 Canine Association Of Nova Scotia (CANS) CFC show! Day two ended with the same results! A Group First under Judge John Muldoon of Ireland and a Group Second under Judge Jean-Jacques Dupas from France! Best in Show ring on Day one was a whirlwind. Maida showed beautifully but it was a tough line up and BIS went to a Beautiful Rottie bitch. The Best In Show ring for day two proved to be a bit more telling, with Judge John Muldoon stopping directly in front of us with the ribbons for a second look. We thought for sure we had it but it was the PUG! Well deserved win for the little dog who COMMANDED those ribbons. All in all it was an excellent weekend out and we could not be more proud! |
