2007 Highlights

We have finished trials and Hunt tests for 2007. What a great year we have had with Maggie getting her Master Hunter title!!! Maggie is officially retired and Elsie could not be Happier as Maggie is such a great house dog. Sammy received Three MH Legs, Jenny after her time out to have ten pups came back out to qualify for her first two Master Hunt passes and Woody completed his SH title. Bob's Miss Dancer has starting working on her SH title with her first SH pass. Dancer has had a fun time running in puppy stakes with one win and two placements.

John Colcord {our 14 year old nephew} Has completed his JH title on Xena and has three SH legs as well. Paul Harris sold John his first shotgun and John has become a real good gun at training! Thank you Paul!

Terry Oliver outfitted John with a new vest ,whistle and most important water Bottles:}:} Thank You Terry!

We look forward to 2008 and finishing Sammy & Jenny's MH title . Bob will be training Kuta. He plans on taking his time and keeping him home . Jenny & Dancer will run in amateur trials along with hunt tests.
