After a long year of training Axel earned his VC yesterday. Big thanks to Donnie, Tate, Bill and many others for their help on the journey.

It's not how many breaths you have taken but how many times it has been taken away!

Has anyone noticed common sense isn't very common anymore.

Here are few better pictures of my boy. I am pretty proud. He has turned out to be one heck of a dog. We are going to tackle finishing MH next.

I hear the same thing from everyone! I plan to put him in a few walking trials soon. I need to get with you guys to make sure I know what to expect and not make a food out of myself!

No problem man! Now you have some nice grounds right in your backyard (Dresden, OH). You can run and be home to sleep in your own bed..... Can't beat that!

I need to train for backing. Got picked up for lack of backing a flagging dog this past weekend. I know your dogs don't flag, but I still need backing work......

Congratulations, that is a big accomplishment, (what is it only 30% or so pass?) Handsome dog.

The passage rate changes from year to year. I think this year it was relatively high at around 50%.
