NORMA LACEY OF GREYWEI WEIMARANERS IN HOWLONG NSW REPORTS ON HER RETRIEVING SUCESS

Hi guys, Had a good weekend, camping in the shearers quarters of a huge property (18,000 acres) owned by a Sydney university, lots of good company and plenty of dog work. Breeze did some fantastic work and knocked a few Labradors off their pedestals, she also put a tooth in the bird on the last run on Saturday and put herself out of first place, so picked up a 2^nd. Sunday she was winning dog after the second run but the Labs did better on the water run and she had to settle for 3^rd place. Greta faced her first trial and got a bird back on Saturday, unfortunately she hasnt had much exposure to birds so entertained the gallery with her enjoyment of this new toy. A tricky second run proved too much for her so she had to wait until Sunday to try again. She got two birds back on Sunday (nought score on one run as playing pigeon did not appeal to the judge) and looked set to get her third back as she took an almighty leap into the water but hit her chin on a log and she climbed out again. It was all pretty much as I expected so back to the drawing board.

Pleased to let you all know that both Rumour (Grand Ch Divani Rumour Has It) and her son Vader (Ch Waldwiese Ndoubt About It) BOTH obtained their TD (Tracking Dog) titles today. We had tough conditions, and Vader in particular had to contend with gale force winds but he worked his heart out to finish the track.

Totally different style of trackers..... Rumour (as mad as ever at 8 and a half!) works furiously at the very end of the lead, while Vader takes the steady, methodical way!

Today at the Adelaide Royal under Mr Maniero (Peru), Vader (Ch Waldwiese Ndoubt About It TD) went Runner Up Best In Show from an entry of nearly 3,500 dogs.

Was a great day yesterday with Vader win Dog CC & Best Of Breed, our 'Grayce' (Ch Waldwiese Legend Has It TD) winning Bitch CC and Runner Up Best Of Breed - (and her babies are only 12 weeks old!) Vader's young long hair son 'Blu' Aceweis Never a Doubt - co-owned by us and Acewies Knls went B.O.B and our little fluffy Eurasier went B.O.B too (OK - she was the only one but we reckon she is pretty special too!)

Just a brag from our trip to Sydney for the Champ Show in October. Under a breed specialist from the UK, Vader (CH Waldwiese Ndoubt About It TD) won BEST EXHIBIT IN SHOW. Our longhair puppy Blu, (Aceweis Never A Doubt - co-owned with Aceweis)sired by Vader, won BEST PUPPY IN SHOW and CHAMPION PUPPY IN SHOW.

To top it all off Rumour (Grand Ch Divani Rumour Has It TD) - dam of Vader and granddam of Blu won BEST VETERAN IN SHOW.
