But, the biggest winner of this year was Mazikeen, who finished in the Owner Handled Top 10, took several OH Group placements, and achieved way more than I set out to do… Our … More 2024 Goals – Accomplished and Beyond…
This was… supposed to be our year… and in a way, it really was, despite being unable to really showcase your stuff. Our dreams to come in and compete in Versatility were dashed when you came into season 3 days before the obedience and rally trial, meaning that you couldn’t actually showcase your amazing talents … More Nationals – Mazikeen
