It was a small but mighty trial this year. The weather was perfect! We had some great runs. Unfortunately, we had some absences due to illness, but otherwise it was a good way to end the year. Thanks to our able judges Rusty Jeffers and Craig Watson for braving the November sunshine.
Congratulations on new titles to Jen Rice and Kitt (HXD), shown above, and Hazel (HSD), and to Outlands Stella For Star (Stella, owner Sue Nolen, handled by Barbara Davenport, HXD). Kitt also earned Reserve High in Trial on Saturday morning. Stella earned two RHITs (Saturday pm and Sunday am), and Echo’s Prince of Denmark (Hamlet, owned by Aaron Brown and handled by Barbara Davenport) earned RHIT on Sunday afternoon.
High in Trial honors went to Hamlet for the first three trials, and to Stella for the pm trial on Sunday. Hamlet earned the combined High in Trial for the weekend. Congrats to all!
And last but not least, Hamlet completed his final trial run, capping his illustrious career with a near-sweep of the high honors and some truly beautiful runs. Happy Retirement, Hamlet!
