Natalie - Two Titles in One Weekend

Natalie (Gr Ch Always No Strings Attached) had a GREAT weekend in Austin in October - she attained two performance titles in one weekend.  She now has RN (for Rally Novice) and CGC (Canine Good Citizen) at the end of her name.  She also placed 3 days in Rally Novice with run-offs for first place two days!

 

Way to go Natalie and Kim!!!  Look at all those ribbons.

Another Stoli Show Photo

Here is Stoli's show photo from the Austin shows!

 

The background isn't so nice since we were not on the stand,

but I think this show photo of Miss Stoli turned out great!

Show photo of Always on the Rocks - "Stoli"!!!

Here is a show photo of Miss Stoli take at the Belton shows on October 19th!  What a little show girl she is!  She was strutting her stuff that weekend.

 

Stoli winning 2 points her first weekend out.  She completed the weekend with 4 points!

Austin Shows!

Always Schnauzers had another great weekend at the shows in Austin the end of October.  Wyatt continued his winning ways taking Best of Breed two of the four days - only 2 points to go before he has his Grand Championship.  Stoli earned another two points toward her championship going Winners Bitch one day.  And sister Diva got some of the limelight going Reserve to a major one day.  This weekend Wyatt's littermate Natalie (Gr Ch Always No Strings Attached) joined in the fun and earned her CGC (Canine Good Citizen) and Rally Novice titles all in one weekend!  It was a great time with great friends.

 

Stoli enjoyed watching the Toy Group - it was great fun seeing those "toys" so close!

 

Belton shows October 17th-20th

Stoli, along with her big brother Wyatt and sister Diva, attended the Belton shows this past weekend.  It was the most fun I have had in a long time and the dogs did great!  It was the first show for both Stoli and Diva, and also the first show for Diva's owner Veronica.  They did well and the judge even told Veronica she did an admirable job!  Stoli was shown in Bred By class all 4 days and made me so proud!  She was Winners Bitch for 2 points each on Friday and Saturday.  She had a lot of fun and although she did behave like the puppy that she is from time to time, she really strutted her stuff.  Wyatt is now working toward his Grand Champion title and had a HUGE win on Sunday - Best of Breed and made the cut in a tough working group!  It was so much fun watching them in the group.  We have 4 more shows in Austin this weekend - can't wait!

Meanwhile in California Stoli's brother Odie has already picked up his first major and a Best in Sweepstakes at the Northern Cal specialty!  Way to go Dottie and Odie!

Show photos to come and more candids soon too!

Not another BATH!!!  I already had one this morning!

 

 

Ahh Mom, you're embarrassing me - although I agree I am the PERFECT puppy!

New International Champions!

Wyatt and Natalie both ventured up to Ft. Worth in September to the IABCA shows.  Both dogs received their International titles and wonderful critiques from the judges.  Another fun thing to do with your dogs!

Houston Shows

My favorite shows of the year - Reliant in Houston!  Here are some highlights!

Bella (in the middle) and her two "kids" Wyatt (left) and Natalie (right) with their owners Lynne and Kim.  All 3 competed in Best of Breed competition at the shows.  They also showed in Brood Bitch Competition.  What fun to have Mama Bella with two of her kids!

Bella and I in the ring on Friday.  Not bad for a bitch that has had two litters of eight!
