Today we took Kenny to our favorite winery! To us, owning dogs is about involving them in every part of our lives that we can! A genetically sound, well socialized, well trained dog can have a much bigger life and that’s so important to us. This is why breeding genetically mentally sound dogs with correct temperaments and further developing that with proven socialization and training protocols like the Puppy Culture program and encouraging our new owners to continue training their puppy is so dear to our hearts. While your dog can’t regret a life it never knew, it’s still a vital obligation of dog ownership to make your dog’s world as big as it can be! There is so much mental stimulation being in public spaces and the ability to behave well in those situations is such a good exercise for your dog, but, like people, they lose what they don’t use, so regular outings are an important part of an enriched dog life. Plus it’s just fun to show off your well behaved dog and it adds so much to our life to spend quality time with our dogs in our favorite places.

Kenny has had a couple of busy weekends! Last weekend he got to do the super fun color powder photo with DFlux Photography. This weekend he and Carol Lindsay went to the Hidden Valley Obedience Club - HVOC Obedience and Rally trial where they earned QQQs (qualifying in the master, excellent and advanced classes all in the same day) both days and earned 22 RACH points AND FINISHING HIS RALLY MASTER TITLE!!! They need 20 QQQs and 300 points to earn the RACH (Rally Champion) title. Next weekend catch him back in the conformation and juniors ring with his bestie Riley Green! We love this multi-talented, smart, handsome, good boy so much!

Pending AKC confirmation he is now

Since we have just posted about titles earned and progress on titles, let’s talk about titles. Why do we title our dogs? Well, in part, we do so to prove, in a measurable, objective, recorded way, that our dogs are of sound mind and body and that they conform to the breed standard, that they are a credit to their pedigree and their breeder, that they have something to contribute to the breed gene pool. But what else does a title mean? This was originally written by Sandy Mowery and published in Front and Finish magazine, a publication dedicated to the sport of competitive dog obedience. And it hits me right in the heart every time I read it. A title honors the dog who earned it, and honors the rich shared history of dogs and humans, all the way back to the first canid who bonded with a human. The dog may not know what is written on a certificate or recorded in a database after his name, but he knows the relationship that was built and the time that was spent together to earn it.

Our Ken Dog also had an amazing weekend at the Mission Circuit shows. In addition to showing in breed and Junior handling with his bestie and co-owner Riley Green, he and Carol Lindsay showed up early each morning to compete in the Rally Master class! Unfortunately Monday we had a conflict with our breed ring time also being early so we missed the rally class that day, but Friday they scored a 100, Saturday 97 and Sunday 98 (out of a possible 100 points). This puts Kenny just 2 qualifying master scores from his Rally Master title (a dog needs 10 scores over 70 points in the Rally Master class for an RM title). He’s also now racked up 60 of the 150 Rally Championship (RACH) points he will need from the Master class to earn his RACH. We’re so proud of Kenny for always showing up and working hard. Everytime the bar is raised he steps up! He’s the best boy!
