Boone and Brenda have had a wonderful start to their agility year!  He is now working at his masters level and added two new titles to the end of his name already........way to go you two!!!!!  He is now known as Albanor's Island Full Of Mystery AGN, AGNJ,SGDC,ADC,AADC,AGDC 
Our youngster "Taggart" Albanor NewMoon O'er Skye has shown exceptionally well this summer and once he was out of his puppy pajamas he started to look like a Golden and not a Gund toy......... SD&G was a great show for Taggart and Albanor with his uncle Sandy finishing his Championship on the Friday and his big sister Drue finishing on the Monday....Taggart refused to be left behind and took his first points by going WD, BW, BPIB AND BOB over 3 specials!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He then picked up another few points at the Cornwall show the following weekend .........all this at just over 10 months old!
"Drue" is the little firebrand from Luna and Brooker's first litter and when she was not whipping around the agility course she managed to take some time out to be shown.....
Although she was in her underwear for most of it she finished her Championship on the Monday at SD&G going WB and BOS to her little brother Taggart!
Drue has only been shown in the conformation ring a handful of times but she has given us memories that will last forever...........
Christine's happy little go-go-go-girl is now Can. CH. Albanor Full Circle!!!

 

THEY DID IT!!!!!!! We are so happy to announce that team Garrow has a New Champion in their home! "Sandy" is now Canadian Champion Sandpyper At Bonnijoy C.D. We all knew this boy could do it but the stars just never seemed to align for him.....he sat on those dreaded nine points for too long but this weekend on his first time out in the ring at SD&G he came home with more than enough points to finish his title! He will be so thrilled to get back into the obedience ring now. Huge congratulations to his owners Joy and Willy Garrow who never gave up on him and to Graeme for taking him on and showing him to perfection. Out of two litters his mum Pyper now has 5 Champions and two OTCh's

 
 

Ozzie Albanor's Moon Bandit RE, CDX held in there along with her mum, Rhonda and their ever patient support group, David.........to succeed in two back to back trials in June at Brome and add that wonderful OTCh. to the front of her name. Ozzie wasn't too sure what all the fuss was about, she was just happy to get out of the ring ;-) Ozzie is the first Albanor dog not breeder-owned to achieve this title and we could not be more over the "moon" for them.............. On top of all this her Obedience Trial Championship makes her real mum "Pyper" Ch. Albanor's Glengarry Pyper and Outstanding Dam..............we miss her dearly but could not think of a better tribute for her..............
 

Although her heart is in the agility fields....little Drue Albanor's Full Circle showed with pizzazz at the CVKC shows and walked away with WB three out of the four shows also taking BW and BOB in the first show!!!  She did all this naked as a jaybird....she is now up to 8 points and will hopefully grow some coat for the Fall shows!  Her little brother Taggart also did well although was shown in his underwear too and took BPIB his past 6 shows.............he still doesn't know that this is work though so shhhhhh don't tell him ;-) ;-)


Tag & Dad (Brooker)

 

Four of the Albanor clan trekked down to Dreamfields in June and they made us proud...
Tara (Albanor Tara's Mystic Moon-Christine), Drue (Albanor Full Circle-Christine), Boone (Albanor's Mysterious Island-Brenda) and Marley (Ch. Albanor's Full O'The Spirit-Lindsay) all did an excellent job with Tara, Boone and Marley bringing home 4 CKC Agility titles and 19 Qualifying legs in the two days!!!! Tara was the only dog to Q in one run and Boone Q'd in all 8 of his runs.........way to go Albanor's Dream Team!!!!! We cannot tell you how exciting it is to watch these dogs run...............takes your breath away!

We have huge congratulations to send out to Lindsay, JC and grammas Kathy and Judy! Albanor's Full O'The Spirit "Marley" only started his show career this year and in three show weekends he attained his Canadian Championship! He showed beautifully for the first time at the GRCQ Specialty in April, tucked a few points under his belt at HKC in May then went WD,BW,BOB and GROUP 1st to finish his Championship at CVKC in July! Ch. Marley is out of Kathy and Judy's Brooker and our Luna and is the second pup from that litter to finish before their 18 month birthday!

 
   

Our littlest but feistiest pup from Brooker x Luna is Albanor's Full Circle "Drue"! She has taken a bit of time to mature and still has some growing to do but she has been out and about at a show here and there. She showed wonderfully at the CVKC shows in July and took her first 2 points and was BOS to her brother Marley. Christine is looking forward to working her in Agility and we just know this little girl with a huge heart can do anything!

 
 

Ozzie (Albanor's Moon Bandit CDX, RE, conf. pointed) is working on her Utility title right now but in the meantime she achieved her Rally Excellent title down at the shows in Belleville early in 2009.......... Rhonda and Ozzie have a great partnership and both of them are a joy to be around! You go Girls!!!

 


We had a wonderful time at the GRCQ Specialty at Sherbrooke in April and Christines little "smiley" Tara got her first points from the Altered classes and ended up taking Best Altered in Specialty! Tara is Albanor Tara's Mystic Moon AgN, SADC

While Christine and Tara were outside getting drenched in the Agility rings Marley was inside warm and dry and competing at only his second conformation show. He showed wonderfully and came away with the points two out of the three days with WD and BOS on Sunday and Monday at the HKC show! He was shown by Gramma Kathy and you can bet that his owner Lindsay is as proud as punch with her boy!!!

We are so happy with Christine and her Tara! They not only braved horrible weather to run two Agility courses BUT achieved their SADC title and did it in style with two 1st place finishes!!!!!! They are a joy to watch out on the course.
