Brags and a Surprise for Someone :)
We had an X-ray-athon.
Alta-Tollhaus Cadence is A-Stamp Normal hips and elbows, ZW 75; recently turned two years old and was re-xrayed for OFA, elbows are normal and hips look good!
Alta-Tollhaus Havana and Alta-Tollhaus Heike turned 1 year at the end of September making them old enough for their German A-Stamps. Both girls have normal elbows and good hips and the xrays are on their way to Deutschland.
Alta-Tollhaus Gavin (XBox dei Precision x Faye vom Kirschental) 16 months old was also xrayed, elbows are normal and hips are EXCELLENT! Since they are going into Germany the best he will get is A-Normal, but as they are now, his hips would get an excellent rating from OFA. Surprise and congratulations to Lorie!!!! Gavin sends you his love.
Also heard from Kim, that Alta-Tollhaus Hole-in-One “Bogey” earned another double QQ in agility this past weekend. They are well on their way to earning their MACH! Congratulations Kim!
Lance New TDX Today!!!
Mr. Lance and I went to Chicago and entered the Lincolnwood Training Club Inc., for GSDs (they had a combined TD and TDX test).
Mr. Lance wants to let you know that he is now a “TDX” boy. Here’s our picture for you viewing pleasure – I’m smiling still.
Judges were Pam German and Donna Kircher, and track layer Kirsten. Our maps show the “boy” booked this track and did it in 14 minutes – whew, he was a gooooood boy (no wonder my legs were tired).
Wanted to share.

Canadian Title
Attached is a pictures of the pretty ribbons Lance earned in Canada. We did 4 classes and earned our Canada Novice Rally title and then moved up to Advance and earned one leg there. All legs were earned with 1st placements – as the picture shows. He was a good boy especially since it was hot, hot, hot, and in a fairground building with no a/c. And, it’s our first Canada title…yeah!
