Sandy and Hampton

Sandy earned her first Hunt Test rosette, and it was for a masterful job guiding her dog Hampton in the Boykin Spaniel Club & Breeders Association of America Hunt Test on Saturday, March 2, in Mountville, SC.

Sandy was in a different group than Larsen and me, so we missed the field work, but all observers said that it was very nice.  Hampton's Hunt Dead was perfect, as were his water blind and water retrieve.

Sandy has been working hard to bring herself from ground zero to master dog handler level, and on Saturday she reached that rarified level.  All were exceedingly pleased to see that work pay off.

Sandy happily shows off the new ribbon, while Hampton takes it all in stride.

Judges Venee and Lois share in Sandy's joy.
