We tend to use Instagram for regular updates on our outings and doings. Last year we had some great accomplishments but also much heartbreak and loss. Ripley finished her conformation Championship in style by taking Best of Winners for a 5 point major in a supported entry over the summer and then took Select Bitch

We haven’t updated in a long time; covid put a big damper on a lot of our outings and plans and we got more than a little behind here and in real life. Eve has been back to doing some agility, we’re working out some kinks and she’s earned several new titles. We’re hoping to

In early October, Eve, Torro and I traveled to the RRCUS National Specialty in Ohio. We had a great time– Eve had some fun playing agility, showing in breed and earning both her Trick Intermediate and Advanced titles (TKA) and her Endurance Test (ET) title. The endurance test is a Ridgeback specific 12 mile run

She finished with 3 majors just a day over 18 months old. We’re looking forward to having some fun with performance training before going back out

Last weekend we went to one of my favorite dog shows– The Peach Blossom Cluster in Perry GA. 5 days of never-ending events to watch and participate in: conformation, agility, lure coursing, barn hunt, dock diving, even carting this year! We had a very successful weekend– Eve won a 4pt major on Thursday and earned

Quite a delay on this announcement, but in mid-February we brought home a new puppy– Celtic Lore’s Evolution, aka “Eve”. Bred by and co-owned with one of my closest friends, we waited excitedly for a year for Eve’s litter. And, 9 months later, I can say that she’s everything I’d hoped for– smart with over

We started the year without any trips to conformation shows– focusing on other events this year. But, in March we had two show weekends mostly because Torro’s daughter Pimba that I co-own came to stay with me so I could finish her. Torro went back into the ring in style, going Select Dog at two
