Default Finnegan makes AKC history!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm very, very proud & excited to share the news that my Big Red Boy has become the FIRST STANDARD POODLE IN AKC HISTORY to earn the Coursing Ability title!!!!!!!!!!

Not only did he race his way into the AKC history books, on the same weekend he earned his AKC novice rally title with 2 third place in class finishes! I am very proud of him doing so well in the rally - scores 93-85-96, because it poured rain all weekend and the rally ring was outdoors and a complete mud puddle by Sunday.

The Bijou Crew swept the rally trials all weekend and comments of "Those Perfect Poodles" are here again were overheard as we arrived at the rally ring from the coursing field! What a wonderful, exciting weekend even if we all did look like drowned poodles from all of the rain!

Congratulations on this perfectly spectacular accomplishment! I have always known Finnegan was one of a kind, and as special as they come, but OMG, he's now a living legend!! The thrill of watching him run on the lure course is unsurpassed, matched only by knowing forever more Finn will be in the record book as the BIG RED POODLE WHO DID IT, best and first!! Woohoo!! Way to go Finn! Okay, Crystal, now breakfast AND dinner are on me when we meet at Westminster in February!! Oh what the heck, lunch, too! I am busting with pride and joy over your glorious red boy!! Chagall says he's psyched too, and so pleased to know his big red poodle hero is now everyone's!! Heartfelt congratulations to all the winning Bijou poodles!!

Oh Debbie, I think the tab goes to the champion!!! Minis course too you know..... just saying....

If anyone is interested in learning more aobut lure coursing for poodles or any other breed, here is a great website:

Lure Coursing for Poodles

Also, in the June/July issue of Poodle Variety, there is a great article on All Breed Lure Coursing. It can be found on page 128. You can look in the table of contents and see a thumbnail of Finnegan and I and our full picture is also in the article!!!

Congratulations. I am so happy to hear that your fella made you so proud. Quite an accomplishment.

When I last saw you competing in Erin this summer I went home and sent in the registrations for UKC...it looked like a fun time...so thanks for the link about lure coursing.

Way to go Finnegan!

Congratulations to all of you!!!
I met 2 Bijou Reds in Carmel at Poodle day this month, and they were Beautiful dogs! I actually struck up a conversation with the owners because of their great shade of Red! And I lost count of the amount of times people asked who Russell's breeder was because of his deep brown color, long legs and calm friendly disposition at only 10 months
Good job and congrat's again!!

Beautiful dogs, with much talent and good temperaments. You've got to be so proud! Hard work put in on your part too for helping them become all that they can be!
Congrats!
