2010 BTCA National Specialty Successes - Tryon NC - May 12-16

Teazle had fun in Team Obedience and was in fact a member of the first place team.
She had even more fun in Rally - at Gwen's expense - but that is another story and a definite Molly Award contender.

One day - two titles

At the Staten Island Companion Dog Training Club's Obedience and Rally trials on February 20, 2010 Teazle qualifed at both Rally trials with a second place in Advanced A at one and finished that title. She also qualified at one of the two Obedience Trials and finished her CD.

A Good Start to 2010

At the Princeton Dog Training Club's Trial on January 16, 2010. Teazle earned her second leg in Novice B Obedience and second leg in Rally Advanced A.

In Gwen's words

I was really pleased with Teazle,it was her first time out since the BTCA specialty and two Qs in a row from her is a gift! Of course she made it abundantly clear when off leash who is really in charge but I'm not aiming for perfect scores!
In Rally I was about to miss the jump but she saw it and of course cannot resist any agility like item so she took it anyway and fortunately it was next in sequence.

Scoring "nice" points

Teazle's last ring appearance of 2009 at the Bayshore Companion Dog Club Rally OB Trial in NJ on December 05, 2009 was definitely an early Christmas present for Gwen.
Despite the challenge of working off leash, Teazle managed to earn her first Advanced A Rally leg.

2009 BTCA Specialty and National Earthdog Tests Achievements - September 27-October 01, 2009 - Centreville, MD and October 05, 2009 - Crosswicks, NJ

Teazle started of the Specialty by qualifying with a third place in Agility (Standard Novice Preferred) despite very poor weather and field conditions. This was followed by a qualifying score in Novice B Obedience. She also had "fun" in Earthdog and Rally

At the National ED Test, Teazle made the day by actually qualifying in Junior under judge Sharon Yon.

First Canadian Title

Teazle earned her Canadian Novice Rally title at the Stourmont, Dundas and Glengarry Dog Show Association shows at the end og August, 2009 with a first and two third places.

Just another working girl

Seems that a visit with grandma Scrimmage was the final touch Teazle needed to join the ranks of the working (helped no doubt by a low key practice run with JoAnn).
Teazle aced her Certificate of Gameness at the NJBEC AWTA Test on November 02, 2008 in Crosswicks NJ under judge Camilla Moon.

2008 Specialty Success

Teazle demonstrated that Earthdog titles are not "off the menu" but just being savoured for a future thrill by qualifying in Intro to Quarry!!!
she also added a 4th straight qualifying run in Rally Novice B. These events took place September 23/24, 2008 in Hutto TX.

A busy little girl

Teazle and Gwen took some time out from travel planning and entertaining a special houseguest to visit 3 area dog shows on September 11th, 12th and 13th, 2008.
Gwen thought some practice for Rally at the Specialty might be a good idea for her as she only got the signs up in the yard to practice on Wednesday.
Teazle did not feel that was at all neccesary, and she was right! She turned in three qualifying scores and earned herself a new title! Rally Novice

An Important Step

On June 25, 2008 Teazle, on hiatus from Earthdog and focusing on obedience took time out to "Ace" her TDI Certification Test. No surprise, she also stole the show doing her "aren't I just the very cutest LBD you have ever seen routine".

First Title

After returning from her Specialty trip, Teazle was off to a match where she successfully passed her Canine Good Citizen Test.

2007 BTCA National Specialty successes

Teazle made her Specialty debut a successful one with a qualifying score in Pre-Novice Obedience plus a very credible 4th place in the 18-21 mths puppy sweepstakes class (Judge Linda Cribbs)

Out of the Starting box

Teazle started on the Conformation title road with Winners Bitch under Judy Webb at the Nitanee Kennel Club show on July 20, 2007 for her first point.
