It's been 4 years since we've had a boy around the place. I forgot how dorky boys are! Duh? He is a goofy, fun loving kind of guy and we enjoy him.
2006:
Strider played at the shows two weekend. He was RWD on on Sunday the first weekend and RWD on Saturday the following, both to majors! He was also Best of Opposite Sex in Sweeps at the BSCA supported Tualatin KC show on Sunday Jan 22.
Strider is BW for 3 points at the Chintimini KC show April 1.
BSCA National Strider is 1st in Sweeps 9-12 months under Sonja Ostrom and 3rd in Bred-By class under Skip Stanbridge.
Strider wins another 3 point major at the Puyallup Valley Dog Fanciers show on June 10. Shown by his co-owner/breeder Penny King.
Danika starts working Strider in 4-H and at the Clark Co Fair in August after 2 months of training they earn a 184 1/2 in pre-novice obedience and a 94 in showmanship, for a red and blue ribbon respectively. They are quite the team and I hope for new adventures for them both!
2007
Danika and Strider go to Canada and finish a Canadian CH with a Group 3
2008
Danika and Strider earn a CD and a RN and are Best Junior at the National. He is 2nd in Open dog. Two weeks later Strider finishes his CH.
