After 34 events in 2006 to end his conformation career and complete five titles (RA, RE, and AKC, UKC and CKC CDs), Bison had a low-key 2007. He particicpated
in a grand total of 7 competitions, earning his HCT-s and a Best Altered in Show. He "rebounded" in 2008, participating in 19 events. He earned four legs towards
his Rally Advanced Excellent title, competing only at specialties, and brought home the big prize with his Novice Draft Dog title as well as completing his 50th therapy visit to get the status of TDIA.
His goal for 2009 was to add at least three more titles, and it turned out to be his busiest year ever. In 35 events, he earned the URO1 from UKC early in the year and completed his RAE and ANDD titles in the same weekend. He's also re-entered the conformation ring as a veteran and is enjoying the applause, and rediscovered the agility ring. He's ended a busy year on a high note, completing the URO2 with all placements for a fourth title. All that and he appeared on Animal Planet's Dogs 101 and represented the breed and drafting at AKC's huge Meet the Breeds event in New York City.
Our hope for 2010 is to complete his NADAC Tunnelers title (if not several!), take a stab at completing the Canadian DD, and nibble on the final two UKC Rally titles, but to overall have a much more relaxed schedule! So far, he has earned the TN-N and two legs towards the Outstanding Novice Tunnelers title as well as two legs towards the URO3.
Here's his 2007 schedule and results:
- Jan 20: Golden Valley, MN — Minn. Mixed Breed Club (UKC) — Novice C Obedience — 1st
