It was the typical rainy weekend you can expect in New England at this time of the year. It never fails. We have a trial, it rains. Yet, it was a very good weekend. Armed with gortex, rubber boots and umbrellas we had faced the forces of nature with no fear and our club trial turned out to be yet another successful event. 
I believe we broke our "spring" record with 19 entries; 15 of those were our club members. 18 titles were awarded and 3, Sch 3 competitors have obtained a qualifying score for the Nationals.
Our judge was SV foreign Gunther Mullegger from Austria. It was his second time at our club and it became very obvious that he enjoys our company, dogs, training and the club spirit (After all who would not like to watch us performing "Crazy Bitch" on Karaoke night?!) as much as we treasure his fair judging, training advice and expertise gained by many years of experience. Gunther will be judging the obedience phase in 2009 GSD World Championship.

I would like to extend our Thanks to Roy from WT-Metall for his continuous support and donations to our club. He came to our field all the way from New Jersey and it was very exciting for us to have a vendor at a local trial. If you have a moment, please check his website at http://www.wt-metall.com/.
