Hi Bethann!

I just wanted to give you a quick update on Kachina. She continues to excell at agility. She and I went to the NADAC National Championships for the second year in a row. Last year she finished 4th in the 20" pre-elite division with many "special awards." This year she was in the MUCH tougher Elite division where she finished 9th overall. I am VERY fortunate to have such a willing teammate. She rides two days in the car to Wyoming to the championships and just rests in the passenger seat for hours on end. Then, she gets up, stretches and yawns, then is ready to go out and give it her all! What a great girl she is.

Attached is a some more recent picures. She has definitely matured and is a super dog.

As I say each time I write, and with sincerity, we can never thank you enough for bringing this special girl into our lives.

BTW - she now has another rescue BC sibling "Finn." He is an AMAZING agility prospect. He came from a Bakersfield CA shelter and is Maureen's agility dog. BOY is he ever a natural, and she has been doing great with him.

I am currently in Oklahoma on my last clinic to become an agility judge for NADAC. Maybe we'll see you at a trial some time.
