Finn received his International Championship title on October 18, 2009 after showing in his 3rd IABCA show.  Not only did he get his title, he also went BOB and received a Group 1 placement.  What a thrill to go in to the BIS ring.  Although he did not get BIS that day, it sure was exciting.

Winston-Salem, NC    Christmas Classic Shows

We traveled all the way to Winston-Salem in hopes of getting Esme's last major at the RRCUS supported shows in North Carolina.  It was not to be for her that week-end.  However, the week-end was not a total loss and to our surprise, Finn took Reserve Winner's Dog both Saturday and Sunday - he even won Open Dogs on Sunday.  Wow!  We were thrilled.  Below is Finn's stash from that week-end.
