PASA
held it's stock trial this year at Fiona's Farm in Brentwood CA.
It was held over Halloween Weekend. The weather was perfect.
Everyone
had a great time! Fiona had her place all spiffed up and
ready for action. She has been getting ready for this all
year, so she probably didn't sleep well on Friday night! The
trial went GREAT! The stock was wonderful, the judges, Rick
Hardin and Maartin Walter were extremely competent, the people entered
with their dogs had a great time, the food was delicious and plentiful,
and ..... Everything went very smoothly!
Even the weather cooperated! The dogs were
amazing! I don't have the entire results, but on Saturday
Trish Alexander and her dog Windsongs True Grit (Duke) won HIT ducks,
sheep, and cattle. Sunday, Fiona and her wonder dog Twin Oaks
Phoebe won HIT ducks, sheep, and cattle. Fiona and Phoebe
also won High Combined for the weekend!! Lora did a
great job organizing the ribbons and prizes as well as making some of
the awards too! Lora and Vista got some Q's too!
Thanks to Marcia for working in the house computing all of the results
on the computer. And thanks to the other PASA members who
came to help, Karen Pratt, Susan Laursen, Mona Nichols, Linda Stamper,
Gina C, and Warene Waters. Please forgive me if I've
forgotten anyone.!
I'd say the PASA stock dog trial was a huge
success!!! I'm sure word will get around and next year it
will be even bigger!
Here are the biggies. Kobie (the BC) got his WTCH. Shiloh got her WTCH.
