Ivan started competing in agilty at the end of April, just before his 2nd birthday. Between then and the end of November, he earned 15 agility titles in three venues (AAC, CKC and AKC) plus 2 Rally novice titles (CKC & AKC)
I am absolutely blown away by everything Ivan has achieved in such a short time!

Tyra had a most amazing year too. As she began the year as a masters/excellent dog there was no way she could top Ivan’s titling score. However, she showed her all-round skills and totalled 16 titles in 4 venues over the course of the year! She earned 2 regular obedience titles and 6 Rally titles. One of those Rally titles was earned at the BSDCC Specialty with a perfect 100 and earned her high in trial.
To top it all, she placed 5th in her division in both the AAC Regional Championships and the National Championships. She also reached the steeplechase final in both events for the second year running and won her class in the regionals.
The end-of-year stats show her at number 13 in the AAC top dogs list with an amazing 122 Qs! She also made the top Steeplechase dogs list at number 4

There I’ve done it
That’s my brag for this year (hope I’ve not left anything out )

Oh yes, and Marco started his show career with a 4 point major at the AKC Salt City Cluster show in Syracuse – How could I forget that! He was only shown a few times at the beginning of the year and also picked up a few CDN points too. He’s now being “rested” until he grows up a bit.
