Thurs Oct 4 – Tyson’s son Goldgrove Taylor Made, “Tank”, won his Open black dog class and went on to go Winner’s Dog for a huge 5 point major!! I was honored to have been asked to show him for owners Peter and Carrie Albertson and co-breeder Sharon Pflueger. Thanks to judge Judy Brown for this great win! I am thrilled to have co-bred such a wonderful dog.

Also on Thursday, Tyson received great news that his 4th echo in as many years shows a healthy heart.

Also on Thursday Tyson was shown as a veteran in the 7-9 year old dog class. He went 2nd and had a great time and enjoyed all of the applause and attention. Check out the video by clicking here.

Sat Oct 6 – Tyson’s son Bullet and daughter Zini made the 1st cut in the Best of Breed competition. They both looked and showed GREAT!

Congrats to all for a wonderful National!
