Palisades KC dog show - Augusta NJ: After a long hiatus, Logan enters the conformation ring and wins Best of Breed under judge Betsy Yates. He strutted his stuff flawlessly, in a large entry to get the rosette. Speaking of large entries, Lylah won Reserve Winners Bitch to a 4 pt major. That means that although she didn't earn any championship points, she beat a lot of other dogs in the ring. We're so proud of our "L" dogs! |

The Yankee Classic, West Springfield, MA: Friday, July 3: Kennelworth KC Obedience Trial: Lylah enters the obedience ring with Terry, for her first ever obedience trial and earns a qualifying score in the Novice class!

Handled by Margaret, Crystal earns a qualifying score in Excellent, and a qualifying score in Advanced, with a fourth place finish! She just missed a perfect score. Only 9 more QQs needed for the new title. At the same time, in another ring, Lylah was doing novice obedience with Terry. They did better than yesterday and earned their second qualifying score for the CD title. One more to go ... Later that night the Islandflats crew celebrated with fireworks, barbeque, and cool libations (what else)! |

to our breed nationals. All our dogs were entered in several events. Crystal in Agility and Veteran Sweeps. Logan in Brace
Conformation (with Lylah), Rally-O, and BOB. Lylah in Obedience, Brace Conformation (with Logan), and Open Bitch. The minute we arrived,Lylah goes into season ... scratch obedience and brace conformation. Crystal has problems running agility, but she does earn
a Special Veteran's medal in veteran sweeps. Logan earns a qualifying score and rosette in Rally; and that's about it. Even though the
judges didn't favor our dogs in the conformation events, we all had such a great time! Kudos to the NEFCRC for planning and organizing
an event that will always carry happy, long lasting memories at Islandflats.
