it's finally happened...

i cant believe its finally time to write the words -
RAH FINISHED HIS UD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not to let that be enough, Rah also managed to qualify in Open for our first UDX leg!


Yesterday I decided to go and show him the way he wants to be shown - instead of trying to control him in the ring and keep him calm, I let him party like he wants to. We had spinning, barking (and on our way to set up for signals he also took a bite!), flying feet, he knocked my number off at one point when his foot got caught in the rubber band - but he had a blast and he q'd and that's what matters. It wasn't pretty, but considering I'm not sure he sat for a front a single time in open or utility, I'l take our 185.5!!!!

So, party boy finally got his UD. and now it's onto the UDX - we're also taking a detour back to CDSP this year as i trial him heavily in the next few months to get 2011 ranking opportunities. Let the party begin!

Hi Kim,
We don't know each other but I've been a fan of Rah's for a longtime. I never knew you had this blog, but I really enjoy hearing your thoughts and frustrations along the way-really takes me back! I wish you the very best in your endeavors,I am starting a new pup for 2012 a dobergirl.
We've bred these guys for a lot of years and they really keep you on your toes don't they?
Best wishes in the new year!!
Sincerely,
