Dreams Do Come True!

Awaiting her last time in the ring before retiring!
Yeah, I'm pretty, what about it?

Second in line, we were ready, even if nobody else was!

Believe it or not, this past weekend I drove to New Mexico for the NM Gordonites Specialty and Sandia Sporting Dog Association shows. With the goal in mind of finishing Mairead's championship (she needed one more major win), friend Sandy and her boy Charlie and I headed out last Wednesday morning. To our elation the Divine Miss M came away from Friday's specialty going Winners Bitch, Best of Winners, Best Bred-By Exhibitor for a FIVE POINT MAJOR and her championship in the bag!!! Just six months in the making, this achievement was very emotional for me. Our first Specialty points won (we've bred Specialty winners, but hadn't earned this honor owner-handled yet), miss Mairead is now officially Champion Moonsetter Certifiably SureShot. It doesn't get any better than this - and Mairead enjoyed prime rib and a baked potato for her efforts!!
