WinsandAchievements
The team of Cornerstone Allegro Ace & Jackie Kobierecki earned
a Level 1 Vehicle title in Nosework on April 24. Windy conditions
made the trial challenging.
As usual, Ace was great!
During the National Dachshund show in Harrisburg, PA the
Stardust Gang had the following wins:
Stella won the 9-11 veteran bitch class at the two supporting
shows and at DCA won the Dual Champion bitch class.
Her daughter Charm (who was just moved up to specials),
made me almost faint by winning BOS to BOV at the Met
Washington specialty over about 46 other girls and the top
bitch in the county (who later in the week won the national).
Little pip squeak Pepper, placed in her 6-9 puppy class at
every show. Pepper is owned by Pam Voelz and co-owned by
Barb Skaer and me.
It was a fun week!
