Gary and Beth traveled to Franklin, TN for an AKC Agility Trial on October. 8th and 9th. The team did not bring back a lot of ribbons this weekend, it was a tough weekend. Keira and Ky did not qualify all weekend but they had some great runs. Jack, in his second trial, and running slow, managed to qualify once, earning a 3rd Place, and Mikki also qualified once earning a 2nd Place.
Gary, Brandy and Beth all wanted to show off their new babies. Gary got a new Border Collie, Madison (Maddie), Brandy has Libby, a yellow lab, and Beth got Breeze, a new Australian Shepherd. We hope that the babies will be our next generation of Agility Champions.
After much consideration and thought, Diva’s current owners feel that it would be best to find a new permenant home for her. Diva is a Border Collie/Lab mix and is only 10 months old. She is housebroken, Spayed, and current with her shots. She is a fantastic family member and needs a good home. Any one who is interested please contact Gary and we will get you in touch with Diva and Family.

Kiera completed two qualifying runs earning a Third Place and a new Title. Ky, was CCSA’s star of the weekend earning a total of 5 qualifying runs. 2 First Place, 6 Second Place, 1 Third Place and a new Title.

It was Jack’s very first agility trial and although he didn’t have a qualifying run he did come home with two third place ribbons. Gary was a very proud of his boy.
The Droolin Dragsters traveled to Talladega, Al on August 13th and 14th for a U-fli tournament and the Qualifier for the U-fli Nationals. It was a great weekend for the Dragsters! On Saturday we won our division in the qualifier and are now headed for the Nationals in St. Louis in November. In Sunday’s tournament we took first Place in our division. Just as important as winning our divisions is the fact that we took a whole second off our team run time – way to go Dragsters!
