Walker turns 1 year old!

On May 1st, 2018, Walker celebrated his first birthday! Happy Birthday baby boy! He is just starting to look like an adult dog now. We are really liking how he is maturing!

Promise and Hope have a very successful weekend of conformation!!!

On March 31st-April 1st we showed Hope and Promise in UKC conformation shows hosted by the United German Shepherd Dog Alliance at the Twin Cities Obedience Training Club in Minneapolis, MN.

Promise finished her Grand Championship in the first show on Saturday winning Champion of Champions. She moved up to the Grand Champion class and won it in the second show on Saturday! She showed beautifully and we are so proud of her performance and improvement in the breed ring...she's learning to pull out in front of me without racing too quickly. Good girlie! She always has so much fun! Promise finished her Grand Championship at the young age of 17 months!

Hope showed in the puppy female class for her first time out in the licensed classes. She was a star! On Saturday, she won her class both shows, best female both shows, best of winners both shows, and Best of Breed, and Herding Group 2 in the second show!! On Sunday, she won her class both shows, reserve best female in show 1, and best female in show two to finish her championship(there were no males for best of winners on Sunday)!!! She finished in one weekend just like daddy Major! So proud of this amazing start to such a young girl! She's only 10 months old!

Major and I had an exciting weekend on February 24th-25th! We competed in Novice A Obedience in three trials(2 trials on Saturday in Lake Elmo, MN hosted by the GSDCMSP and 1 trial on Sunday hosted by the MKC in Minneapolis, MN).
