Default Finnegan's Rally weekend

Finnegan and I participated in UKC rally trials this past weekend. While we NQ'd twice, we did earn two legs towards our novice title. On Saturday we took a second place with a score of 85/100 AND on Sunday we took a FIRST PLACE with a score of 97/100!!!

Way to go my big red guy!!!! I couldn't be more proud of him. We are hoping to finish our novice title on May 1st in Buffalo!

It was a spectacular Red Poodle Rally Weekend all around!!! Yay and WTG Finnegan & Crystal! We'll have to wait until August for our final leg, but I know the time will fly! (Oh, and btw... I may need to borrow your photographer, as mine wasn't up to snuff this weekend!!) Great pictures!!

Congratulations again to you and Finnegan, Cavon!
It was a pleasure meeting you both. Wasn't it wonderful that poodles were so well represented in these trials? I think all the colours and sizes were there at one point or another!

It was so nice to meet you as well, Vivienne! It was a great weekend and yes, the poodles really represented in both numbers and results, especially your handsome boy!! Congratulations on your fantastic performance!

To have so many folks cheering Finnegan and I on during our second run on Sunday meant the world to me. I felt like we were a part of a very special club and I couldn't have been prouder.

I don't know if you heard it, but at one point on Sunday the Judge said, "Okay, next dog number xxx, oh wait, another poodle for a change! This should have been called the Rally Poodle Specialty!!" I thought that summed up the weekend perfectly!

Crystal

Dear Crystal & Finnegan,
CONGRATULATIONS!! What a fantastic accomplishment! I know just how many hours of dedicated practice you two put in. I'm delighted to see it paid off, big-time!! Finn is truly a wonderful ambassador for the breed. He's such a big, red, silly, athletic, handsome hunk of smarts and fun! I wish you continued success and enjoyment. I know everyone who gets to see Finn in action smiles with adoration. Good going!! Is it okay if I send up an Omaha steak to your big winner?!

Thanks everyone!

Debbie - I don't know if you can send steak across the border, but one day we will sit down with our boys and we will all have steak, but you and I will also have some wine to go with it!!
