🥳🎉🎈Happy 4th Birthday Savvy!!

08/18/2025

🥳 Today Marcel turned 11years old. He is the father of our 2021-2023 litters and grand father of our 2024-25 litters. He's not as fast as he used to be but his prey drive for my chickens is still strong. Luckily, they can outrun/fly away from him so I indulged him with some fun in the big yard even though some of the birds were not secured in their pen. No birds were hurt in the making of this video. He thought it was the best birthday present he could get. Happy 11th Birthday Marcel 🎂 🎉🎈

One of these is NOT a dog toy...Birdie disagrees.

I'll be teaching these Rally workshops at Wulf's Den in Krum, TX if you want to join us! New and experienced handlers are welcome!

Hey dog peeps, I'm looking at teaching some Rally mini-workshops in Sept in the DFW area. Any of my friends looking to start Rally with a new dog or trying to clean up some Rally moves with their current partners who might be interested? Cute puppy pic of Savvy just to make you look 😍

The Party is officially over for our 2025 litter. Party (now known as Benny) headed home to his new 50 acre ranch that has exotic animals and some kiddos for him to play with. If you are in the Austin area, you can schedule a tour to see the ranch and maybe you'll even "spot" Benny!

I ran Sequel in the Novice Rally Championships. She had only been in a 3 day trial weekend once in April of 2024 to qualify for this competition and this was her second time to compete in Rally. I was happy with how she did considering she isn't well versed in this sport and we only practiced twice before we left. She got a 293 out of 300 and was 39th out of 107 dogs who competed.

I'm competing at Rally Nationals right now with 4 dogs in different classes. You'll be able to see my 2 Championship dogs (Dalmatians Triple and Savvy) both Fri and Sat (July 3 &4) if you want to on the livestream.

If you want to watch the livestream of Rally National Championships, go to the address below. There is NO registration needed and it's free. You can download the app to watch on your phone or tv.

Judging starts at 8am CST on tomorrow Friday AND Sat for both channels (different rings for each course and we have to do both each day).

Triple ( #651) and Savvy ( #661) will be on each channel for the Fri and Sat Championship courses. For Friday, I will be in ring 4 (channel 1?) probably somewhere around 9am or later. I think I'll be in Ring 5 (channel 2?) probably after 10am. But these are just guesses. We don't get walkthrus for the courses in this class so I'm thinking competitors might be running a bit slower to try to not mess up! 🤞 I can follow the courses correctly and the dogs are able to focus thru all the excitement to show what they can do!

All dog videos. All day. Live on AKC.TV. Available on any connected device, including computers, tablets, phones, Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV, and Roku.

Triple had another great day in Rally. He won first place in two of his runs and a 4th place. He also won both of the top ribbons, earning a 299 out of 300 for the High Triple Score and a perfect 200 for the High Combined Score.

Savvy also had a good weekend. I'll make a future post for her as she has earned several new titles recently, including another one today, that I haven't announced yet. But I need to take some pics of her with her ribbons 🏅 That will have to be later though as I have to get ready to hit the road for Rally Nationals this week with Triple, Savvy, and Sequel...plus my Doberman Awesome.

Triple earned 2 first places and the High Combined Score award today against some really tough competition in Rally. Savvy practiced her Master skills and Party came to cheer on his mom and dad in the ring. He fell asleep from all the show commotion though. Rally Nationals are next week so this is our last weekend to practice.

Not the best photo quality as they were behind the mesh pool fence, but I managed to catch Party and Savvy in a cute pose while they watched me floating in the pool. Party has his mommy's smile 😃

Party has a home waiting for him but he'll be with us for a couple more weeks.

Voodoo flew the coop today and has a new mom and an older dalmatian friend to live with. I hope they have lots of great adventures together 💞
