I see by my lack of entries that I am not much of a blogger, and have some catching up to do with the happenings at Brentwood.

This fall I attended an American Working Terrier Association trial put on by the North American Tekel club, and Kirby (Ch. Conundrum Rambling Blues) earned their Certificate of Gameness in the same tunnels used at AKC trials, only his staring is counted as part of his “work”, which he does dig, scratch and bark after sufficient staring is completed, lol. 

On the second weekend of March, Keeper and I attended the Forest City Dog Training Club’s agility trial where we earned one leg in Novice Standard with a first place, overcoming some issues she had with noisy teeters.  I was proud.  I was hoping for our final leg in JWW, but she knocked a bar on a triple (she never does that!) and on another run we we over time (uhh, my knees!).

Brentwood hasn’t had a litter of puppies since Keeper’s C-section fiasco almost four years ago; we started over with another girl from Otley kennels (Blaze) and have now bred her to Kirby.  An ultrasound exam last friday revealed we are expecting a very large litter for Borders — SEVEN!  We are both happy and a little overwhelmed at the job ahead.  Stay tuned for the pictures and stories!  🙂
