Walker (CH Tamarack's Northern Bogwalker) competed at the St. Croix Valley Kennel Club shows in Lake Elmo, Minnesota on August 22-23. The entry was 13 Keeshonden both on Saturday and Sunday.
Walker went Best of Breed both days at SCVKC and got a good look in the group ring on Saturday and he made the cut in the group ring on Sunday under judge Mr. William Bergum in a very tough group with some of the top winning dogs from around the country competing. Judge William Bergum remembered Walker as he was the first judge he ever showed to. Judge Bergum gave Walker Best of Winners for a 2 point win as a 6 month old puppy.
Walker is progressing nicely and is close to being one of the top ranked Keeshonden in the country, having shown only three weekends in 2009. It helps the three shows were well attended shows with larger entires.
Walker has taken 5 of the 6 Best of Breed ribbons he has competed for in 2009 and he won't be 2 years old until November 24th. He is really settling into becoming a nice specials dog for us.
It has been a joy to watch this boy grow up and mature. He is really starting to get noticed.
In addition Odin (Tamarack's North Star) took Reserve Winners Dog on Saturday and Winner's Dog on Sunday to bring him a point closer to his championship.
Bijou (Tamarack's Jewel of the North) and Dixie (Tamarack's Northern Misty Rose) split Reserve Winner's bitch with Bijou getting it on Saturday and Dixie on Sunday.
Overall it was another good weekend for Tamarack Keeshonden at the St. Croix Valley Kennel Club show.
