More 'Team Horsetooth' News

 Show News

It's been another fun weekend of showing for the Horsetooth crew.

Today Alfredo got his first glowing compliments from a judge - Judge Bill Shelton, at the Evergreen Kennel Club show in Greeley, CO.

Feynman had a 'backwards sneezing' fit in the ring and didn't have a great day, but still was 2nd place in the Bred-by-Exhibitor Dog class.


 Obedience/Rally News

We're also SUPER excited to announce Obedience and Rally Rankings for the whippets who were working their brains as well as their beauty and brawn this year.  Every dog Jen has competed with in Rally or Obedience is ranked in the top 20 of their respective classes:

Penelope is tied for 3rd in the country for the Obedience Beginner Novice B Class with an average score of 194.5/200 possible points.

Feynman is tied for 3rd in the country for the Rally Novice B Class with an average score of 95/100.

Johnson is 10th in the country for the Rally Novice B Class with an average score of 91.33/100.

Fermi and Lychee are tied for 13th in the country with average scores of 89/100.

Spicy Duck is tied for 19th in the country with an average score of 87/100.

PLUS - we're excited about Horsetooth Ginger Shrimp (owned and handled by Lyn D'Amato-Franklin) coming in with a 3rd in the country ranking for Rally Novice A with an average score of 94/100.  Congrats, Lyn & Ginger!














Running News 

No news here in Colorado for running this week, but a HUGE congratulations goes out to Ellen Feldheim and Horsetooth Shanghai Tofu - "Cato" - on their awesome Best in Field win at the GANG lure coursing event in GA last week.
 



Puppy News

We're still watching both Penelope and Spicy closely, and are guardedly optimistic!  Ken doesn't want to announce puppies until we have them in hand, and impatient Jen wants to announce them right away!  So everyone will have to still sit tight and wait a bit longer for absolute confirmation.
