Bragging Rights

She continues to shine

Despite unbelievable heat and humidity one day and steady rain the next, Tank lived up to her heritage at the Finger Lakes Kennel Club Earthdog Tests on July 24-25, 2010. After being unable to decide if she was running junior or senior in the first test, she steadied down and completed her AKC JE title under judge Karen Zeman on Saturday afternoon.

On Sunday morning she did a flawless run to earn her first AKC Senior leg under Trudy Kawami

This brag will continue to keep Rusty the CBTW foster dog in the manner to which he has grown very accustomed

And how about that - July 16, 2010

When it was announced that the Friday show of the New England Circuit was breaking away from the cluster and would be held outdoors at the Tunbridge fair grounds it seemed appropriate to enter. After all - The Woodstock Dog Club shows were home to the BTCA National Specialty for many, many years.

Well, our support was rewarded, the show drew the only major of the circuit and Tank claimed it with Winners Bitch for 3 points under judge Polly Smith.

As always, this brag will benefit Rusty CBTW Foster Dog

How about that!!!

No-one was more surprised than Pam when Tank turned in a sterling performance to earn the first leg of her CKC Senior earthdog title under Marg Pough at the Border Terrier Canada Specialty Earthdog Test in Jerseyvill ON on June 27, 2010.


As always, this brag will benefit Rusty CBTW Foster Dog

Lessons well learned

Tank put her New Jersey Beanfield earthdog experience to good use at the Cairn Terrier Association of Ontario tests on June 12-13, 2010 earning her Can.JE under judges Chris and Jeanette Burger



This brag will once again benefit Rusty CBTW Foster Dog

Earthdog Success

Tank finally earned the first leg towards her AKC Junior Earthdog Title at the New Jersey Beanfield Club Test on June 6, 2010 under judge Larry Sorenson

That took care of that

Tank completed her Canadian Championship at the Club Canin Rive Sud shows in Iberville on April 30th and May 1st, 2010

On Saturday, Tank took Winners Bitch/Best of Breed over a female puppy and then Group 4th for a total of two points under Doug Gaudin then Winners Bitch/Best of Breed over two bitches on Sunday for two more points under Avery Gaudin.

I moved her up for Sunday but asked if she would prefer to go to the show or go for a walk.......

This brag will benefit Rusty CBTW Foster Dog

A nice little win

...at the Ottawa Kennel Club Shows, November 21-22, 2009

On Saturday, Tank took Winners Bitch over another female puppy and then Best of Breed over a male Specials for 2 points under Cecilia Ringstrom then Winners Bitch on Sunday for one more point (judge "Butch" MacDonald).

All in the Family

Sadly, there was no outside Border Terrier competition at the Moncton Kennel Club Shows on November 14th & 15th, 2009 so Tank competed against her half-sibs for the points and came away with two-two point wins under judges Wendy Paquette and Elaine Whitney.

Following in hallowed footsteps

With four lines back to my beloved Pepper, it was no suprise that Tank earned her AWTA Certificate of Gameness a few days short of 8 months of age at the NJBEC Test on November 01, 2009 under respected working judge, Teddy Moritz
