A Few Firsts for Canyon!
July 25, 2011 / Diane OrthCanyon is now Victory’s Got Game WC NA NAJ! We have the agility bug and started trialing in April. Canyon went 3 for 3 with all first placements for his NA, and 3 out of 4 tries for his NAJ, again all first placements. This past weekend we ran our first time in FAST and Q’d in Novice FAST, with a first place ribbon! Last but not least! He earned his WC at the specialty in his first attempt. This was a first for both of us, as I have never attempted field before. “Canyon” is much loved, owned and enjoyed by Diane Orth
