Congratulations to all on their passes and titles.
Absolutely! Katie did an impressive job of handling 'Journey'......she's already a good handler and really won our hearts.........

It was a good weekend for some new and first-time handlers from the MSU/Starkville area.
Daniel Nichols (left) got 'showered' at the Supper Saturday night for first-time handler - he and 'Bull' got 'started' passes, both days......

Michael Hill gets a shower from Freddie McCrory (front) and Clark Kennington (rear) after first-time handling and 'started' passes he got over the weekend.......

When your dog is on the 'bubble'......sadistic judges will hold your number and call your name last in the awards ceremony.......especially if they know you're nervous about the results. Marinda and Mike really know how to make a point stick and have a little fun in the process. Anne Dennis and 'B.J.' got their first passes in 'started' during the weekend. Clark Kennington (far left) has helped the 'budding' Starkville group with training/handling tips.

Thanks to all for a great weekend. It's truly a big family of great folks.
