At the ripe old age of 30 months...
In just 8 shows....

ROSEWOOD LITTLE GIANT, UTILITY DOG!!!
(my first one!)

A.K.A. The Tito Monster!

Just to add to the brags, Tito has only shown in AKC obedience a total of 15 times. 3 in Novice, resulting in the CD, 4 in Open, resulting in the CDX plus one extra leg, and now 8 in Utility, resulting in the UD!

I simply could not be more proud of my little boy.

A funny story from the ring...I arrived breathless from the breed ring. Told the judge, who happens to breed/show goldens, that I had just run over from breed and had to catch my breath. She looked down at Tito and said, "with THAT dog???"
I said "sheeeesh, he's not THAT ugly!!!!"
She got all embarrassed and said, "no no, he's gorgeous. But NO ONE shows in breed and utility in the same show, I was just shocked."
I had to laugh!

Hey!!! That is so awesome!! I've been waiting since that last thread for this news! Tito's a pretty impressive young guy--and from this end of the computer we think he looks hot, hot, HOT

 

[JDandBigAm]

Wow! I'm very impressed. That is fantastic to get through utility at only 2 1/2 years old. A big congrats and he is a very good looking boy!

 

[AtticusJordie]

Tito is a stunner. Beautiful face and eyes. And congrats on the titles (I have no idea of what those initials mean--but evidently Tito did something reallllllllllly special!)

Way to go!

[hotel4dogs]

Thanks everyone! I am just floating on air still!
I have another cute story from the ring yesterday....I also did a breed/obedience thing yesterday. I was wearing a black skirt that's tight at the top, but rather somewhat wide at the bottom.
On the second article, he somehow managed to get his head sort of under my skirt...with the article in his mouth...
Not totally under, but enough that I had to lift my skirt to take the article from him! Sheesh, the things we do to our dogs!

You are an amazing trainer. Utility Dog is a title I dream about, and I am so wowed by you two!
