 Flirtin' with a Chicago Blizzard!!
Starting out the 2015 show year with great wins and record breaking snow at the International Kennel Club show weekend in Chicago, Team Malagold once again braved the unpredictable winter weather and brought home the big wins with the Malagold Girls the last weekend of January.
Flirt, in the Big City!
The dogs had fun! On Friday, Summer (Malagold's Summer Rain) won her Bred By Exhibitor class and went on to a BBE Sporting Group 1 win with Connie!! Smoochie (Malagold's Sealed With A Kiss) earned a first place ribbon from the Open Bitch class and went on to go Winners Bitch, Best of Winners and Best of Breed!
The winning tradition continued on Saturday with Geri and Flirt, CH. Malagold Southern Belle of WingStar, winning the Breed and earning a Sporting Group 4 placement!!
With treacherous weather closing in on Chicago, Team Malagold made the safe decision to drive back to Michigan before the almost twenty inches of snow closed the city!

Everything is "Rosie" at the GRCA Nationals!!
Connie, Geri and the Malagold Crew traveled to the Golden Retriever Club of America National Specialty, held the week of October 27th in North Carolina. It was wonderful fun meeting up with friends from across the country!
The dogs had a great time as well, with Connie and Rosie, Malagold's Tequila Rose, winning the Puppy Sweepstakes Junior Bitch 12-15 Month class with an entry of 22 puppies! And they continue to compete in the regular 12-18 Month Puppy Bitch class, earning the blue rosette from an entry of 36 puppies!

This is an amazing feat by Mr. Pat and Pam, who completed the 769 yard VST track in under 20 minutes. According to the AKC, "A Champion Tracker (CT) is awarded only to those dogs that have
earned titles at all three tracking levels – TD or TDU, TDX and VST. If a dog is
awarded the CT title, he is among the elite of those active in tracking."
