Farewell K

Kaleb lost his short battle with Lymphoma. He had just turned 11. Although "old" by flatcoat standards, we still feel ripped off. Kaleb had so much life, and Joy to share. His enthusiasm and zest for life was unmatched. From his antics on the agility course, to the field, and at home. He was a true comedian.
 

It is a huge blow to our Go Dog Go family, and he will be greatly missed. It still doesn't seem real. 

Goodbye Maggie

 

 On November 12,  Kim had to say goodbye to Maggie.  Maggie had been ill for a short while , & although she was still bright in mind, her body was tired.

All of Go!Dog!Go! are saddened by her passing, she was a funny, bright girl, who had an enormous personality, & always wore a crazy smile on her face when she was doing the things she loved.

Our Condolences to Kim, Colin & Amy, she was loved by us all

CKC Agility Trial Results

This past weekend was our local CKC Agility Trial, it went off well & showed that even though we are a small club we can do anything if we pull together.

Andrea wrote to say the CHARM got 3/4 Q's toward her Masters Excellent Jumpers With Weaves title. You need 10 perfect scores to obtain this title, quite remarkable considering how ill CHARM was this past March, I'd say she's made a complete recovery!
