Update from Laura:
Yankee went to a Match today. He was
entered in Rally, Novice Obedience, and Conformation. We started in
Rally, and although we were slow, he was very steady. He scored a 96
and a Second Place! The 4 points off were from him biting the lead. During
regular obedience, his on-lead work was awesome, but off-lead needs a bit
more work. We provided the comic relief for the day.
And on to Conformation. He was still wired and ready to go and was
very good showing. He was the only English Cocker and won the breed.
We went into Adult groups and there were 10 sporting adults! He won!! The
judge loved his head and expression. We went into Best in Show and he
showed awesome. I couldn't believe how well he did. He nailed his
freestacks, stayed really well on the table, and his down and back
were perfect. I was proud, and he made me even prouder by going Best
Adult in Match. This was a different judge and she loved his body and his
topline. She also felt he was a great size for English Cockers, as she
feels they are getting too big.
He is now exhausted and laying on his back sleeping. I love this
dog!!!
