Tuesday was another great day to train! Dogs, fawns, puppies, people…. Fawns???? Shhhhhh….. 🤫 💕
….and if you didn’t like the weather, you only had to wait about 20 minutes and see if it was more to your liking then 🤣

Fun finish to our 2026 Spring Cocker season at the MN club trial. Great weather and reasonable Spring cover, it was a good time. On Saturday I got 4th in the puppy with Zing Danae Steele . In the amateur Rosemary LoGiudice and Vito got 3rd. In the Open I got 4th with Lili Roxanne Fegley and 3rd and Guns with Obi. Though older, this was Obi's first all-age trial and it was very special to be able to get that ribbon for his Kevin and Allison Peterson.
On Sunday in the Open Lili got the Guns. Enzo Barb Fischer Boettcher got 2nd for his first US all-age ribbon and got to do it in front of his mama. And the perfect cap to our season was seeing little Ms Kitty (Mary Lou Dunn) become a lion! She needed a win for her title and she did it, our whole training group loves that little black dog and are very proud of her.
