Apologies for the scoring error for the Open Division at the closing of the show. Cappy and Carter Turner's 5th Series score was 83 vs. the 129 that was posted on the scoreboard. The overall score was listed as 212, which is correct. Sorry for any inconvenience or confusion. Thank you!
Legend (Abby’s Blaze of Glory) was started by Todd Christensen out of Northern Utah. Todd owned Legend’s Mom, Abby, and whelped Legend. With Todd, Legend made the NDL, was QA2, and had an Open JAM at 20 months old. He was a very nice young dog.
This is great! Loved seeing my dad, Judge Dana Giovannello, in his fancy bow tie and appreciated hearing the kind words said about him. EVERYBODY KNOWS DANA GIOVANNELLO!! 😆👏🏻 Good luck to all the handlers and dogs this week! 👑🏆 Shout out to Shannon for coming up with such a great idea on the big hats and bow ties theme and event for everyone to enjoy!!
Blind retrieves(ones the dog does not see thrown) are put out where the handler knows it is. Marks thrown the dog sees thrown. Dogs are tested on their memory of where that is. It takes years of training your dog to get to this level of competition.
A no bird is when a mark is thrown by the bird tech or a winger and not in the the area the judges assigned do to error, therefore a No Bird. It’s the judges call and the handler can either go back and start again or want until a few dogs before they run again. Usually handler will wait a few dogs to run.
These are the live streams from the day of competition. There will be an edited version of the competition coming in the near future that will be aired.
