Bree Update

Little Miss Bree has been a very busy girl! She recently 

finished another session of obedience classes and has 

been continuing with her agility classes. She absolutely 

LOVES the tunnels and will sometimes dive into them as 

they are being carried off to be put away! She is actually 

starting to understand to take the line of obstacles in 

front of her.

Speaking of agility, Bree has been tagging along with 

me and Rainey to some agility trials. She loves to come 

along to visit with all the nice people (they feed her, so 

of course she loves them) and hang out with her canine 

friends. She likes to watch the agility runs, especially 

the fast dogs.

This past weekend Bree made her conformation debut at 

the Dairyland Classic shows in Jefferson, WI. It was her 

first road trip since we brought her home and her first 

stay at a hotel. We were rooming with my friend Sherrie 

and her vizslas Allie and Will (Rainey was with us too). 

Bree absolutely LOVED playing with Will (and Allie loved 

that Bree gave her a break from Will). Even though he was 

much bigger than Bree (he's a handsome 16 month old), he 

was very gentle with her. Bree loved jumping around 

on the beds and playing keep away with the toys.

For her first time in the ring, I was very pleased with 

her. She was such a peanut compare to the other puppies 

in the 6-9 month class (many of them were just shy of 9 

months), so she was the real baby of the bunch. She was 

pretty squirrely when it came to stacking and having the 

judges go over her, but they were very kind to her. By the 

time it got to the last day of the three day cluster, she 

really let the judge go over her. 

I wasn't expecting to get anything out of the weekend 

except for some socialization and ring experience, but 

was very pleased that she ended the weekend at the 

Central Wisconsin Vizsla Club specialty with a second place 

in the puppy class. For now we will continue to go to our 

conformation classes and let her grow up a little 

more before her next show.
