WE WILL MISS YOU, CH TRIADEL'S HELIUM!
It is with much sadness that I report that Helie has suffered a tragic accident, and has died.
She was beloved by owners, John & Shirley Eck, handler Colleen Nicholson, and all of us owners of the littermates who have known her, rooted for her in the ring, and have a special place for her in our heart.
HELIE, YOU WILL BE MISSED.

CHERRY BLOSSOM CLUSTER, DAY TWO
OLD DOMINION KENNEL CLUB OF NORTHERN VIRGINIA
Saturday, April 24, 2010
AmBred lineup, unfortunately, during the sweepstakes a mishap has resulted in a fall for Colleen, and we are worried that she may be feeling worst than she says. Michelle and Quincy, Gwen DeMilta, Colleen, Diego Garcia...
Rupert and Colleen do a very good job,
The judge, Ms Sharon L Hildebrand, checking Rupert.
one more look...
Diego Garcia and his entry,
Michelle, Gwen, Colleen, and Diego with their entries, Rupert came in third.
Here is Gigi, which showed very well, especially since she had not been showing due to her owners, Mary and Dennis' medical problems. She took second.
The day belonged to Argon, who finally broke the drought, and took the WD for Two Points, and the crossover for One, bringing his total to Fourteen. Now all he and Rupert need is One point, and Colleen is looking for some small shows so that we can finish them both, and go to Sardinia on vacation!
A tough weekend, not many wins, but we are very happy for Argon, and I enjoyed having Michelle and Marisa share the "dog show experience" with me.

MARYLAND CHERRY BLOSSOM CLUSTER
METROPOLITAN BALTIMORE DOBERMAN PINSCHER CLUB
Friday, April 23, 2010
Stella was entered in Sweepstakes, here is the judge Ms Sharon Marinelli, checking her out...
one more look at Stella, and she wins...of course!
These are the AmBred entries, a very tough lineup, six very good dogs...and top handlers! Colleen is first here with Rupert, Michelle and Quincy are in the middle.
Here is the judge, Mr E.A.(Skip) Thielen, checking Rupert, this is a very thorough judge,
here he is checking Quincy
and here looking at Carissa DeMilta's dog.
The lineup includes also Diego Garcia, among others, here first on left.
Colleen does her usual best with Rupert, and he is putty in her hands
Can you guess who took the class from Michelle's expression? Rupert! This was such a tough lineup, that I felt as excited and proud of our puppy winning the class, as other times when he took Winners! The judge was very meticulous, and checked every inch of every dog, no quick decision for sure, so when he pointed to Colleen we were thrilled. I was also very happy the Michelle and Marissa shared this joy with me. This was the first time that they had come to see Rupert compete, and even though he did not advance beyond winning the AmBred class, it was such a proud moment for me to share such a tough win with my daughter and granddaughter. I was also very happy that they met Colleen, Cindy, Donna and Mark, and Mary and Dennis.
Here is Argon, who showed very well, and took third.
I believe that this is Stella
Stella.
Gemmi showed like the Champion that she is, Colleen could not have done a better job with her, the judging was grueling, and it seemed to go on forever, both dog and handler gave their all, but she did not take the breed.
One last look at the BOB lineup, if I remember correctly, Carissa took the breed with the fawn bitch.

THIS IS A FOUR POINT MAJOR!
MASON & DIXON KENNEL CLUB,
Sunday, April 18, 2010
This is the second day of the two day show in Harrisburg, Rupert earned a Major the day before and we are going in with very low expectations, any win today would be the cherry on top!
Here is Rupert and Damas' Settin the World on Fire. The judge, Mrs Evie Sullivan, checks the all out thouroughly....I hold my breath...and Rupert takes the Blue Ribbon! Dax has already won his class, so they will meet again for WD.
This is the Open class, Argon shows very well, Colleen does her best, and he comes in second.
All the Winners now get back in the ring for WD, of course I don't dare hope, and what a surprise when the judge points at Colleen! Another Major! In two days!
Stella gets her second RWB, that little girl is knocking at the door!
Back in the ring for BOB, Colleen takes Gemmi, and Rupert is getting very used to Pam handling him. She does a very good job, especially considering the caliber of handlers like Gwen DeMilta and others. Gemmi looks wonderful and takes BOS again!
One more time around the ring, and again, almost disbelief and unbelievable surprise whe he takes WD and one more point!
Here is our boy in his unofficial picture...we are so very proud of him!

I'S A MAJOR!

THE BLUE AND THE GRAY CLUSTER
I should have known!
HARRISBURG KENNEL CLUB.
Rupert had been knocking at the door, three straight RWD in Edison, but no points. You think it's never going to happen, and then...IT DOES!
Here he is in the AmBred class, Mrs.Jacqueline M. Rayner checks him out,
Colleen does her usual wonderful job with him,
and he takes the class.
Open class, it's Argon's turn, he does a geat job, looks wonderful, but the Open class is a lot tougher...
and he does not advance.
Back in the ring for Winners,
here is Colleen with Rupert and Pam with Kelview's Herzig Dax v Triadel, who had won the puppy class.
The judge checking Rupert's gait
more Staking, and nail biting (on my part)...
...and the 3 POINT MAJOR IS HIS! Dax also does very well winning RWD, Not bad for a 9 to 12 puppy!
Back in the ring for BOB, and who takes him in?...Edwin!
Although, when Colleen first approached Edwin asking him if he wanted to take Rupert in, I felt like finding a rock to hide under, I loosened up, and had fun watching him struggle to do his best "handler imitation". He had fun, and I think finally got the "I want to show" Rupert" out of his system!
All of Colleens dogs got something, Stella went RWB and Gemmi BOS, Way to go Colleen!
The official picture is forthcoming, this is my snapshot, and I'm really proud of the way Rupert looks, I can't believe how he is transformed when he's in Colleen's hands! The Harrisburg Club surprised us with a beautiful rosette for WD, quite nice!

EDISON 3 DAYS OF SHOWS...THIRD DAY
BRONX COUNTY KENNEL CLUB
Sunday, March 28, 2010
The third day turned out to be the less successful for the Triadels and Colleen's dogs, Quincy had taken a nice romp in the park the previous day and he had a slight limp, which the judge noticed at once. He still won his class but went no further.
Rupert, also won his class and...
took another RWD, the third in so many days. Consolation...he has wide appeal, frustration...when will he get the points?
One more picture of Gemmi, we all thought she should have won, but the judge had other ideas...all and all a disappointing day, but it's a dog show and that's the way the cookie crumbles!
