NICHOLAS wins UTILITY & JACKSON is a NEW TaCH2

Jeannine Rash (PA) wrote CH Loteki Ima Firecracker, UD, a.k.a. Nicholas showed past weekend (July 31 & August 1). Nicholas tied for third in Utility with the dog who has won the Invitational twice, but lost the run off.  In Open we tied again and this time Nicholas won the run off!  The poodle who was in the top 4 at the Invitational won the class after a run off with another nationally known dog but they were just a half point above us. That dog was High combined but we were right behind her. He was the only non-OTCh dog to place during the whole weekend.

Unfortunately the numbers weren't that high as one would have liked, so Nicholas only got 1 OTCH point. We did get a 6th UDX leg and now only need 2 points to finish his Master title.

On August 7th, in Cincinnati at the Clermont County Dog Training Club, TACh CH Loteki Civil Liberties CD RE MX MXJ earned his TACh2!  Jackson qualified and placed in all 5 of his runs on Saturday with a first place on his standard TACh 2 run.

Cheryl's Felix (TACh Loteki Wind Fall RAE MXP MJP3) qualified in all three Standard runs and in one of his two game runs.  He is closing in on his TACh 2 title also.

At the Allstar Performance Dog Association tournament in York, PA, on Saturday,  Nicholas won the Utility division on Saturday.  He also had completed his first run in Rally at the tournament and is winning with a perfect score and the fastest time by more than 20 seconds! 

On Sunday, Nicholas won the Rally Novice competition!  The only dog to win two different competitions.  His team won the team event.

Loteki Down The Garden Path won her second BOB from the classes today over specials.
