Club News

On Wednesday, January 11, 2012 the North Country Kennel Club presented the Watertown Fire Department with three sets of Pet Resuscitation Kits to be used with their existing oxygen equipment.  Club President Jeannine McKnight and club members Jean Dean and Dr. Teresa Dewey were on hand with their dogs for the presentation.  We hope these kits will never be needed, but we are comforted by knowing they are available if a beloved family pet is ever in need of life-saving measures. 





Member Brags

Carol Monroe:  at Goveneur - St. Lawrence agility trial Saranac Royl Christmas Gift RN, HT, CD (Chrissy) qualified in three runs out of four with 2 first and one second place for 2 Jumpers With Weaves Novice P legs and one Standard Novice P leg.  She missed qualifying in the fourth run by one point.
 
At Wine Country Saranac Royl Christmas Gift RN, HT, CD, CA (Chrissy) qualified in three Lure Coursing Ability Test runs for her Coursing Ability tested (CA) title.  She also qualified on Thursday in both rally Excellent B and Rally Open B placing first and second for her second Rally Advanced Excellent (RAE) leg.  10 double qualifing runs are required for the title.  Saranac MVP (Player) also qualified in three Lure Coursing Ability Test runs for his CA title.
 
At the SOTC agility trial on October 16th Saranac Royl Christmas Gift RN, HT, CD, CA, NJP (Chrissy) qualified in novice Jumpers With Weaves P to finish her NJP title.   She also qualified in Novice Standard P agility for her second leg toward the NAP title. (Novice Agility Preferred). 
 
In total Chrissy qualified in 10 out of 11 runs in three different venues in the past month.  She missed the 11th run by only 1 point.  I am very proud of her!!

Jean Dean: CH Creekside's Skye's Zee Limit, RE, OA, NAJ, NAP, NJP, NRD, NSD, VX..Can AG N had a second placement in Novice Fast Preferred (NFP) at the SLDC agility trials. 

Creekside's Big Skies Montana, CGC, NSD, CA, received his CGC at the end of Jackie Nichols obedience classes, and at the Wine Country Circuit received his CAT (coursing ability title).  See his run in the video below! 




Sandra King: Indra and I had our first public presentation at the Woofstock in Oswego and a photographer took a couple of professional pictures while she was in action. We were on the highline for the first time at the Comfed SAR Camp over at Camp Amahani, and she did very well. She's ready to certify for SAR for the first three certifications in off trail, heavy brush and 30 Acres. We are also going for the IRO RH title which is an international Search Dog title.  For that we have to take the German Basic Obedience test, the BH.
