New titles!

 

A lot has happened in our collie world since I last posted! Our tri boy, Levi, got his Canadian Grand Championship in November at our last show of the year, Evelyn Kenney, in Calgary. He went Select in all four shows, and there was some outstanding competition!  Levi also received an Award of Merit from the Collie Club of Canada under Judge Susan Bertrand at the Camrose Regional specialty in October. We are really proud of this boy! Both Levi and Gemma were shown by junior handlers in the collie specialty, and performed very well in the ring with children at the end of the leash.

Levi also earned three new performance titles since our last post. He received his Scent Detection Open, Rally Novice and Sprinters Novice titles this fall! So he's now GCH Buffalo Creek Levi's Promise at High Country SDO, RN, SN, NTD.

And not to be outdone, Gemma, CH High Country Catch Your Breath SDN finished Best of Opposite in all four shows, our last of 2024, and she is now two points short of her own GCH title! We were hoping to finish both their Grands at this show, but one of the collie girls was absent, so there were only two collie girls at the show, so that means a single point win. 

Gemma also received her Scent Detection novice title in her first trial, and shows great promise in that sport, moving up to Excellent Containers search in just one weekend! The judge even gave her a WOW!! on her score card.

We are always grateful for the expertise of our Pro Handler, Madison Bernardin and her team, who always do such an excellent job showing our collies in Conformation.
