We can update this as the week goes on for everyone to see.

[Kevin Hannah]

Anyone have any results yet from last night or tonight?

[waterfowler65]

Weds.

1- Tim Marshal

2- Al Curtis

3- Kyle Einhorn

Its a tight course with a very hard base, each dog and handler is at the mercy of the bounce. One bad bounce on a mark and the next thing you know your stuck handling. If they line the blinds and stay in the water they are going to do very well....

[waterfowler65]

I just got off the phone with Chris and here are the results for tonight.

Thurs.

1- Jeff Flanigan, I know he is not on the list, he is from hamilton with fbl

2- John Mairs

3- Chris Bailes &"Jade"

unfortunately for Chris only the top 2 finishes advance to the finals on Sunday.

[nimkii]

I was there tonight, dogs ran well. It's really cool listening to people watching the event and the comments on how hard it must be to get dogs to listen the way they do, sit on a whistle and take hand commands...and the whole time look happy.

[Kevin Hannah]

Anyone heard anything yet about tonights group?

[nimkii]

Last years Golden Whistle champ finished first tonight, and sorry everyone I can't remember the names. My wife and kids had fun tonight watching the dogs run and once again the dogs didn't disappoint. Very entertaining...

[rleclair]

Last years Golden Whistle champ finished first tonight, and sorry everyone I can't remember the names. ...

Ron Harnick and Ripley won last year, so I take it they came in First on Friday night.

Anyone know about other ribbons - 2nd, 3rd??

[nimkii]

Third went to one of the Golden retrievers, if you look at the photos that Mike Bons posted, the golden in the photo took third. Sorry I don't recall second at all, I was probably telling my kids to sit still for a minute:angry: .

[Labber]

George Wordock took 2nd with his golden.

[waterfowler65]

Just got off the horn with 3blackdogs.

Sat. Results.....OOOOOOOOHHHHH ho......Nelly.......

1-Tom Robins and Blue......youngest dog in there...2years old.

2-Chris Laush and Rain.....

I dont know who came in 3rd, it doesnt matter anyway....


I'll be there watching tomorrow....
Later...Marc...

[waterfowler65]

Ron Harnick is going to be tough to beat. His dog is really on.

Later....Marc......

[ducksoup]

I'll be at Finals tomorrow -- should be good

[waterfowler65]

I'll be there too......

Sory Randy I wont make it to your training day.....


Later....Marc.....

[rleclair]

Sory Randy I wont make it to your training day.....


Not a problem on the Training Day - have fun at the show!

What did you mean in your other post about "3rd place doesn't matter anyway"?

Didn't 3blackdogs come in 3rd on Thursday night? You better not tell him 3rd place doesn't matter!! (LOL)

You are in trouble now boy!! (he, he!!)

[waterfowler65]

LOL......hahahah......

I meant today.....

Thursday it was important......hahahahha.....see how that works....
Randy you've got to leave the pot stiring up to me man...hahahahaha...

Later.....Marc.....

[waterfowler65]

Actually third only matters tomorrow in the finals.....lol....


Later.....Marc.....

[3 black dogs]

Thanks Randy but he is right third place dosn't really matter. Good luck to all who are running tomorrow and Rons dog is on but I would not count out Toms dog and Chris Lausch's dog and Jeff flanigans dog worked very well I would put these guy's in the top 4 all of them will be hard to beat it is going to come down to the handler

Chris

[3 black dogs]

Final results

1 AL Curtis - Garth
2 Ron Harnick - Ripley
3 Tom Robins - Blue

Thats all I have right now if I hear anything different I will post

Chris

[nimkii]

Good job Al and Garth. Congrats...:beer:

And great showing by all the other handlers and dogs...:beer:

[Labber]

Congratulations to all!
It's a very tough venue in there with everything so tight and the potential for unforgiving bounces and distractions. You sure have to have a dog that is on it's game.

[Drew Good]

Congrats to all, and especially Al and Garth

[Kevin Hannah]

Congratulations to everyone that ran today, Nice job Al.

Kevin

[LeeW]

It was Scott Curtis that Ran Garth today .They worked well as a team ...

[Kevin Hannah]

Sorry Scott, nice job.

Kevin

[ducksoup]

Scott did a great job and deserved win -- thought Tom had it won with his young dog Blue until last test (just a bit of trouble on last blind) -- but then last year's winner Ron and Ripley nearly pulled it off with steady solid work -- sure couldn't fault him as he had his own cheering section (family and friends put on white T shirts with Rip's picture on one or two but majority had single letter on front whuch when put together spelled out RIPLEY -- also had pom poms and banner) -- it was fun being at 60th Sportsmen Show

[Drew Good]

I almost forgot, thanks to everyone for the reporting and pictures. For those of us that wanted to be there but could not ( working on the Damn house:angry: and spending everynight till 3am working on the forum) it gave us the opportunity to follow everyone's progress.

Thanks

Drew

[rleclair]

Good for Scott - especially stepping in for another handler (his dad).

Scott was supposed to be coordinator of our Training Day at Valens today(Luther Marsh HRC). I am glad it was worth his while. He will have to do DOUBLE the work at the next one in April!!

We had some fun anyway today with 3blackdogs and Quackaddict coming out.

What I really want to know - who is going to take credit for the Gold Whistle - Scott or his dad Al??

[franklauzon]

I don't know what the marks were like on Sunday, but on rFriday, the mark that was landing inches behind the bales of hay really was tough on the dogs.

It was very fun to watch! the rubber duckies sure take some funny bounces

[rocko]

The finals were very exciting!! The 2 dogs that placed first and second were insane!! Congrats!!
