Mairead's Specialty Photo Has Arrived!

While not the best picture she's ever taken, the accolades of the win make it worth sharing. Mairead is enjoying retirement from the show ring, but we're working on adding an obedience and hunting title to her name. For now, she is Ch. Moonsetter Certifiably SureShot.

Two cute photos

Denham - Moonsetter Good to Go SureShot (2 years)

(SureShot Moonsetter Go the Distance x Ch. Moonsetter Certifiably SureShot)
Kierra - Moonsetter Irresistible Jump on the New Year
(Moonsetter Dolan Sureshot x Moonsetter Field of Her Own)

We recently received these photos of a couple Moonsetter kids... the first is Denham, owned by Bev Holoboff in Edmonton, the second is Kierra, owned by the the DiMicelli family in New York. We just love getting photos of your Moonsetter kids for our family album!

Nice picture of Mairead

Ch. Moonsetter Certifiably SureShot - got this photo from the photographer at the NMG Specialty. We thought it was really pretty.

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!!
