Congratulations to our members:

Melissa Bryant and Macallan, her Swiss Mountain Dog, had one heck of a weekend. At the Connecticut River Working Group/SCONE Specialty, Macallan took Best in Specialty Show. He then went on to make the cut in the Working Group ring, as well as winning the Owner Handled Working Group. Four dog shows in two days–wow!

 

 

President, Robyn Januszewski, and Acorn, the Husky (GCH CH Snoebear Solstice Snow Dancer RI SIN CGC TKA,) took Select Dog on Saturday for a 4 point major at the First Company Governor’s Foot Guard Athletic Association in Springfield, MA.

 

 

Sarah Todd and, of course, the beautiful Ernie, Malamute extraordinaire, earned Ernie’s Rally Novice title at the Collie Club of Maine’s rally trial on Thursday.

 

 

Jackie Barriere’s handsome Golden, Ruger, has passed all three therapy dog tests. He is now a certified expert giving comfort to those who need it.
