I am very happy to brag that Sophie earned her WC last night at the Mountain Valley Retriever Training Club test in Flamborough, Ontario. Sophie was the only Barbet running and I was so pleased that she did so well. A lot of people were curious about her as it was the first time many of them had seen a Barbet let alone watched one run. She did a great job and brought back all the birds!
I have a lot of gratitude for all the people who have helped us to get this title. Susie Bell is a great trainer and she really got us off to a great start. A huge thank you to Sue Kish for everything she did to bring out the best in Sophie and get her ready to run. Sue you are an amazing trainer! There is no way we could have achieved so much so soon with out you. And of course to everyone who threw birds and bumpers, quacked duck calls and fired off starter pistols - thank you too!
Thanks again to Florence Erwin (Sophie's breeder) for providing me with such a wonderful girl. Sophie is now the 1st Barbet in Ontario to earn a WC, the 2nd Barbet in Canada, the youngest so far and the 1st Canadian bred Barbet to add the letters WC after her name! Yippeeeeeeee!
