Finally got Karma on a duck for the first time today! This dog is so much fun and makes me so happy.

Even though I’ve had the pleasure of whelping several litters over the years it still amazes me every time how fast they grow!! These two pics are hours after the puppies were born and yesterday at 1 week old. That’s why it’s imperative to not over exercise your growing puppies, proper nutrition, and a healthy weight are so so so important.

Rockmill’s Karma Comes Around CGC FTN TKN
Getting so big! 7 mo old

04/13/2024

Karma was very busy adding initials behind her name today earning her CGC, TKN, and FTN. Might I mention the same week she turned 6 months old! For my non dog friends this is the canine good citizen, trick dog, and fetch novice title. She had to display good temperament, basic obedience, 5 additional tricks, and retrieve a toy over 30 yards with obstacles and bring it back and release to my hand 3 times for 2 different judges. She did a fantastic job!

Karma practicing a 1 minute sit stay. She is the most biddable dog. She is so smart and always willing to please. She just turned 6 months old this week!

Karma took Best of Breed Saturday and Sunday in Dayton. Sunday she placed 3rd in Group. Wyatt handled her brother Navy and got Best Opposite! This was Wyatt’s first time ever handling a dog.

Karma practicing some dock diving today. 6 mo old

That’s a wrap on Karma’s first show! Unfortunately we did not place, but Karma got some experience in a big ring and handled it pretty well. It’s also a lot on a puppy to travel 4 hrs and live out of a van for an entire weekend and she traveled beautifully!! So I’m happy with how things went and can’t wait to show her at the upcoming Dayton and Columbus shows! Wyatt was really great too he helped tremendously he helped walk dogs, took photos and videos for me, helped feed the dogs, humored us dog people at dinner, then even helped unload the van when we got home!!! Now if I could get him to start handling in the show ring I’m all set. Thanks again Kimberly Topping Mikesell for all of your advice and guidance and caring for Karma as much as I do, and Hoosier Labrador Retriever Club Spring Specialty 2024 for hosting a great event!

Karma had her first swim lesson today. Looks like we might have a future dock diver!

Super proud of Karma for the first time she got to retrieve some birds today. She handled the duck calls and gunfire like it was nothing. Showed nice obedience waiting her turn. Very happy with how she handled everything. Can’t wait to do it again with her!

Karma doesn’t mind the snow one bit!

Karma and I decided to dip our toes into the conformation world today and entered the Medina kennel club puppy bowl. Karma showed really well for only being 3 mo old and for having me as a handler lol. She took 1st in her class, Best of Breed, and 2nd for the Sporting Group.

Got some pics of karma in the snow today.

Karma got some health clearances back today! We also now know she is BY so she does carry yellow recessive.

Happy New Year!

12 weeks old tomorrow ! Getting big and learning so fast. Had her first introduction to gunfire and the pivot bowl (this helps with tight turns in obedience later down the road). She did really well with both! Loves her new pheasant dummy she got for Christmas.
