Lots of big and small doggies strutted their stuff yesterday at the CGC test at the school. Congrats to the following (forgive me if I don’t know names of dogs or miss anyone. I was busy watching the cattledogs And double forgive me for spelling. I’m irish but no way can I spell those wolfhound names!)

• Christine and her Maltese
• Trish and Truffles (papillion)
• Maggie and Aspen (golden retriever)
• Ellen and Foster (australian cattle dog)
• Bonnie and Bella (wirehaired dachsund)
• Vicki and Smudge (tibetan spaniel)
• Midge and Oakley (labrador retriever)
• Jackie B. and Naomi (chow)
• Betty and Orly ? (irish wolfhound)
• Jackie O and Moe and ? (2 irish wolfhounds) and Ellison (labrador retriever)

Thanks to evaluators Jackie, Jackie, Betty and Estelle.
A special shout out to the “milling crowd” who brought new meaning to the word milling. (Trish will be purchasing a disco ball for the school.)

Trish says we’ll start the tutor classes back up next week. So better quickly cram and get those doggies in shape.

We’re all glad that Trish is feeling better.
