Fun Coursing in the Sunshine State!!!

A huge thank you to Robin Barry and SSRRC for a wonderful sunny weekend!!!

So, we finally decided to embark on a long awaited and planned trip to Florida.  We desperately wanted to get down to the Ocala area so that Robin Barry, co-breeder of our Spirit/Raleigh litter, could finally meet some of the puppies.
We decided to head down this past weekend, for the SSRRC AKC trial in Lady Lake, FL.

This was a 3 day trial at a new field.   We only went for the weekend, but were very impressed with the field and faculities.  

Saturday was the warmer of the 2 days, but very enjoyable!  

Moon was 2nd in a field of 11 open whippets to earn her first 2 AKC pts.

Half-sister Elsa was BOB from the Specials stake.  So exciting after the long trip!!!

Sunday was equally exciting, while Elsa was pulled due to a small pad injury, Moon went on to go 1st in the open stake of 13 open whippets for her first Major win and 4 pts!!!!

I was sooooo happy that Robin Barry was able to see this promising young girl in the beginning of her career and we can't wait to see what she has planned for us in the future!!!

Moon is not yet a SC but she has 6pts and a major towards her FC!!!!!

Mike took some great coursing shots, can't wait to see what we got!!!

Another fun weekend of coursing!

This post is a bit late, but wanted to say how proud I am of our two Spirit girls after another fun weekend of coursing.   

This past weekend we went to a 

CHAMP AKC trial in Leesburg, VA. 

To start with, Moon passed her QC TEST on Saturday with flying colors!  So now she is ready to go and run in open at our next AKC trial.  A big thanks to Auntie Morgan who ran with her for this test.

Then, to top off a great weekend, Miss Elsa was BOB on Saturday in a large stake of 24 whippets!!!  

She ended up in a 1/2 tie on Sunday and due to the heat, we chose to take second place and head home, rather than take any chances of a heat related injury.   Too much running left in the year to push things at this time.  
Looking forward to more running next month!   

So proud of Miss Elsa - this is her 6th BOB this year in only 11 AKC trials this year!   Not a bad record!!! 

Moon enters her First LC trial!

Proud of this young Red Girl - Moon 

(Cali's HH Serious Moonlight) 

Shr passed her ASFA precert test on Saturday and entered her first trial on Sunday.

Running againts many AKC Field Champions this girl did great,

placing 4th of 11 for her first points!!

She improved with each run over the weekend, gaining confidence and speed. 

I think she is going to have a fun fall and can't wait to see her run again!
