Belize 's first dog show

Bobbie our handler stacking Belize after the show. She did not do much and was very scared but did let the judge go over her but she did not want to move. She will get better. I am really liking her she is already an inch taller than her mother.
I was suppose to take some other dogs but mixed up the show dates and had to go in the Zion on the spure of the moment instead of the Motor Home.

Congradulations to Behr,Behr.

I want to brag and congradulate Holly and Gary Rake who have one of my puppies, Behr, who has successfully gained a level one title in detection scent discrimination. This is competition for drug scent work like police and FBI. Behr was one of 50 contestants. Of course most of the dogs where Sehphards, hounds, malinosi, labs and rotties and Behr was the only Dane.
Now Behr was competing with many dogs who had trained for 1 or 2 years whith professional dog trainers as handlers. Behr has only trained for 6 months. Behr was one of only 15 dogs with qualifying scores and she got a perfect score. She is also still a puppy so we know she will do more impressive things in the future.
She will always be the first Dane to qualify in this competition.
We are all so proud of her and her trainers. Congradulations Behr.

Great Dane Nationals

If anyone would like to see the website of the Central Valley Critiquing Club It is www.cvcc.yolasite.com
I just got back from the Great Dane nationals in Chatanooga, Tn. There were about 400 Danes. I met the black dog I am going to breed too and got a line on a blue dog in Utah that I am going to fly out to go see. So I have my next 3 breedings pretty much planned out. It was a fun trip and I made some contacts so I did what I wanted to do by going. Kitty

Central Valley Critiquing Club

Not too much happening but I and another Dane breeder have started a critiquing Club. The purpose is for us breeders to learn by evaluating each other puppies when we have litters. The best way to learn is to evaluate other breeds. So far we have 2 Dane breeders, two Golden breeder, two Dalmation breeders and a Dobie breeder. I fell the more you learn the better we can breed.
I have a new web page on my web site Minimizing Genetic Disease for those interested.
Legend and Belize debut in the show ring will be on the turkey circuuit in November. Kitty
