Way to go and good job to everyone. I want to say thank you to the APLA people that I met this past weekend. Everyone was very nice and welcoming. Jack also got two started passes this weekend at about 23 weeks old. Thanks again to everyone. You all were great.

Thanks a lot Holly,that little guy was a show stealer eh!I could'nt keep from laughing,what a riot.---It was another fun w/end at Harsens Isle.Last year I met Dale and Mark and the MM was Born and this year we all got together and had some fun with our dawgs,and extended families.---I only went to run Gator to get tuned up for duck hunting season,and The Michigan double APLA Test coming up.Had no intention to run Rondo at all in Started.Put him in at the last minute and he passed both days,no real big deal really,as started is just a couple marks,not much asked of the dogs.It was the style in which he did it that was the fun part.He seemed to steal the show and had his own cheering section(which included the judges).Lots of other pups at a young age did very well also.So Gator is old news,and his son is stealing his thunder,OH WELL,I own them both so will have to deal with it.I would like to say "Way to go" to some APLA dogs that I know,and were there,,,,Mike Craft and his Maggie passed both days and got his Started Title(correct?).Holly and Jons dog,Echo,2 more started passes,and Banks who did great.Banks got his HR Title as Holly may have stated. HRKs Diesel who did a great job and passed Finished both days.Tig his kennel mate,I believe got another finished pass,and showed a lot of gas left in his tank,ran hard,nice..Rooster made me proud on Sat.,and then not so much the next day,but Dale being the trainer he is used his smarts,which surprised meand chose to forgoe the ribbon to get a problem nipped.Mark and The Duke ran finished,and got a pass on Saturday,,,as the Dogfather hollered"I don't believe it"and Mark gave this lookas it was announced,,,We won't talk much about his Sundayother than to say that what were we thinking a year ago,when we thought he needed to get better at his focus on marks,,,,,nailed them.He needs a visit to the G'Force training facility up north ,eh' Mark...and last but not least,a big congrats to our host for the w/end Josh Verkerke,whose great dog Spark passed two Seasoned tests,to get her HR Title,and earn her owner a baptism,and it was a good one.-----------------PacoHope I got it all right and didn't forget anyone.

Congrats to all in the MI Mafia on a job well done!! Dogfather Sway is happy her bro Rondo is doing good! You may not think it is anything tough but that is still pretty cool to have a ribbon or two on that little Liberator! I am gonna try to get some video of some water work this week with Sway we will see got some dogs to get ready for this weekend the video work may have to wait till next week. She is a whole lotta fun to train an play with!
