August 2013 Greta and I attended
a 3 day obedience/rally trial
We were quite ambitious and entered both
Beginner Novice Obedience and Rally Novice
all three days.
I was so proud of her -
the first day we qualified in both classes
and both classes again the second day!
the third day she did not want to do
her sit stay in the obedience ring
and I thought that
maybe I had asked too much of her
She was very young after all, only 1 1/2 yrs old
and this was only her second experience at a trial
But that afternoon in the Rally Novice ring
she earned her best score of all three days
and finished her Rally Novice Title!
What a weekend! What a girl!
Now I have to tell you
of a sweet surprise I got from Google
Have you ever googled your name
to see what might come up?
Well I googled "Greta Pug Munchskin"
And up popped a link
to the
Pug Dog Club of America's
2013 Rally Ratings
OMD!
look who was listed #10!
Greta went on to finish her
Beginner Novice Obedience Title in June of this year
and in August she earned two qualifying scores
towards her Pre-Novice Title
I miss you baby
so very much
Love you
Mom

ReplyDeleteMy that is a wonderful memory - and Google does have its plusses...(ahem).. Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx
Linda bless your heart...the things you and Greta accomplished in such a short span of time are truly amazing...but not nearly as amazing as our Greta...often when I type Greta I type Great...and actually that is a perfect description of her. This is a beautiful post. I'm so sorry for her untimely passing...I've asked myself many times why but I know I shouldn't.
ReplyDeleteLots of hugs
Cecilia and Madi
How sweet about Greta,
ReplyDeleteI had 2 pugs and they both are gone to doggy heaven I told my vet today if anyone came in wanting to give away a pug for any reason call me
My girl pug lived 12 years and had cancer last year of her life,
What a star! What a girl. Can't believe she went to the bridge so YOUNG. Great memories.
ReplyDeleteGreta had just begun showing what she was able to accomplish. It just isn't fair that her future was cut so short. We think about her (and you) all the time.
ReplyDeleteYour Pals,
Murphy and Stanley

Greta sure was a champion - in so many ways. Mom says we all still miss our Thunder and Dakota, but flashback photos help a lot.
