The club hosted it’s first AKC B-OB Match today and it was a blast! We had 22 different dogs entered with of course the Border Collies in the conformation ring and we had an eclectic variety in the obedience ring from Springer Spaniels, Doberman Pinscher, Irish Setters, Aussies, and even some Saint Bernards.
We had the best judges volunteer their time. Jeanne Hagen-Santiago of Celestria Border Collies carefully judged very young puppies to experienced veterans in our conformation ring. While Patty Buchanan worked tirelessly to judge the variety of dogs in the obedience ring. We want to give both ladies and huge shout out of appreciation for their work. You two are the BEST!
The club made $214 on this match. We now have one more that we need to do in six month before we can advance to A status with AKC. Special thanks go to members Jamie J., Judy M. and Kathy E. for getting their early to help set up, worked it and then tear it all down. You guys ROCK!
