I’ve attached a picture Bill took today of Lance and I (he’s not as good as you all are with photographs). But, the picture is of us with our groups of ribbons (4 first and 4 qualifying) that we’ve earned at our last 2 rally shows. Two from the Kalamazoo Kennel Club a while back and two this weekend at the Kalamazoo Cluster at the fairgrounds. Three of them represents our latest title RA (Rally Advance) and the fourth is his first leg in Excellent. All legs earned with first placements – he’s a good boy.
You also wanted to know his latest “name” string with all his titles. So, here it is – this latest title puts us at 41 titles. Whew! Busy, but what fun.
U-CH, U-AgII U-RO1, Alta-Tollhaus Par Four (Lance), TD, AX, AXJ, NAP, NJP, OF, RA, CTL1, CL2, NAC, NCC, TN-N, TG-N, WV-N, CSL1-F, CSL1-H, CSL1-S, RS-N, JS-N, GS-N, mHIC, OFA Hips (Normal) + Elbows (Excellent).
Enjoy – have fun with the pups.
Laura and Mr. Lance
Hello Laura, Congratulations to you and Mr. Lance! It is nice to see a photo of the two of you with your latest wins. Please thank Bill for doing such a nice job! I enjoy following your career in The Review—you and Lance are an inspiration to us all.
Thank you Laura for the update on Lance. Congratulations on the new title! Way to go on all the first place wins!!!!! Lance is a hunk!
Wow, he might have more titles than his parents combined!
Congratulations on all your wins with Lance. Wow… he has a lot of titles.
Lance is one of the reasons I contacted Julie about Alta-Tollhaus GSD’s. I saw his picture and titles on Julie’s website, along with other dogs, and decided to contact Julie as those are all the types of performance events I like to do with my dogs.
@Lynda
Lynda, I am always getting “Lance-sighting” reports from other people. It generally goes something like: I saw Lance win his class, or I went second to Lance; what a nice working GSD, Lance and Laura are doing really good, what a handsome dog, etc., etc. do you think I ever get tired of getting these reports???? NOOOOOoooooooooo! I will have to give Lance a gift for bringing you to Alta-Tollhaus. Owners that work their dogs are the best homes for these dogs!!!
Congratulations! 🙂
