WOW...On Cloud Nine!!!

Post by Kiki's Mom » Tue Mar 10, 2009 7:34 am

Our best girl, Jade just finished her Open FC title this past weekend at age 4- 1/2.
She has been hunted over wild pheasant, wild bobwhite, wild valley quail, wild chukar and even wild grouse. She is the pick of the lodge when there is a choice in dog to hunt over for the day.....
Took her puppy points in Idaho a 4 pt stake with 19 entries - anybody who has been to Mile post 9 knows it's wide open BIG, BIG country and she was of course, horseback handled.
Took her Derby points in Nevada - 2 pt stake - again horseback handled, AGAIN...WIDE OPEN COUNTRY!
Took her first Brittany major in PA - 3 pts -the grounds tightened up considerably and the stake was a walking stake
and finished her title this past Sunday, running at Kildeer Plains, OH - anybody who has been THERE knows what a tough, wet course this is.
She won another 4 pts, with 22 starters in the stake, and was horseback handled....after helping Brian host a Chukar hunt at the farm the weekend prior where she put 16 birds in hand for lunch 8) 8) 8)
Image
Jade was shown on a very limited basis with myself as the handler, between trials until last fall when I handed her to my good friend Linda Mc Cartney with just 5 single pts to her credit for a season of shows. She finished easily in 8 short weeks garnering not only her CH title but also a Group 2 placement along the way.

Way to go guys! She sure is a nice bird dog. I liked her ever since I took Brian chukar hunting. Keep up the good work with all your very talented dogs. Hope to hear more good news of them all in the future.

Helen....

Don't think there's anyone I could be happier for! This little girl Jade is just doin' it all.....a working gun dog and companion, a show champion, a field champion, and now a dual champion. Not only a wonderful tribute to her breeding and talents, but also to you and Brian who have brought her along so beautifully from the very beginning. We're thrilled for you all! :D
