Magnum14 Years Young!!!!

Magnum turns 14 years old today!!!
Helen Marie says: "Magnum the Magnificent's 14th Birthday. Here is my favorite puppy photo of him. He is such a great companion, buddy, pal. My HEART Dog for sure!!! What a life that old 'dude' has had. He earned his CD at age 1, we got his AKC Ch at age 2 (owner handled). He has his UDX and 9 OTCH points. He earned his VER and his JH at age 12 1/2. He retired himself from Agility last year with am Excellent JumpersPreferred title and unfortunately short two legs from his Excellent Standard Preferred (old age caught up with him). He had four invitations to the Obedience Invitational and got to attend twice. AND he is the boy who survived virilent anal sac cancer at age 9. What this old man of mine has done and where he has taken me - so many of the things we did and the titles we earned together were FIRSTS for me - getting my feet wet and stumbling along with a dog who was willing to try anything I threw at him. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MAGNUM!!!"


Happy Birthday to you Magnum, may you enjoy many happy days ahead!!

NEW CHAMPION - ROLLO!!!!!!

From Christy:

"Enormous announcement here, Rollo won BACK TO BACK 3 POINT MAJORS at Coyote Hills in Vallejo and FINISHED his championship with 17 points!!!!

He was BEST OF WINNERS today too.

Tomorrow he goes in as a special, and since I sent in his Woodstock entries for the 4 day cluster in June, he will special there as well. THEN he goes on a diet as breed Bostons are way fatter than performance Bostons.

This has been exciting and something I doubt I will EVER do again, but I can happily cross it off my "bucket list", One Champion dog, check!! "

Congratulations to you both, and he also just turned two years old. When Christy gets his win picture, I will post it. We always know the little guy was special. But remember - for the June shows, you promised him no more ear shaving!!!!

Celebration, now come on........................................................

Found this on Facebook - From Christy Rose

HUGE news flash, Rollo got a THREE POINT MAJOR today (Friday) in Vallejo!!! he looked great, and Janice did a spectacular job showing him for me. One more major and he is finished. There are majors tomorrow and Sunday for Boston boys so we have a chance. I told him when he is finished he won't ever have to have his ears shaved again.......

We are routing for you, Rollo!!!!

Congratulations!
