Edgend Alaskan Malamutes

07/24/2024

Ally Antonicelli our boy got mail!!!

I will never get bored of being the weight on the end of Brio's lead!

Last month Brio earned his NOHS Gold medal and is now precariously sitting at:

# 3 NOHS Alaskan Malamute
#10 All Breed Alaskan Malamute (cc)
#15 AKC Grand Champion Malamute
#20 in breed standings (cc)

Not too shabby for my home grown boy.

Thank you to Renee Kovash , Dorothy Fisher , Vickie Venzen and ALL of my ringside helpers, especially those of you who have taken my bratty girl in when I had conflicts! Much love to you all!

Hey East Coast friends! Anyone interested in planning and executing WPD titles this summer??

I am starting to plan and would be great to have company. Overnight or on loop hikes.

So Brio had a good run in Morgantown.
3 shows, in 3 days, 3 Best of Breed wins, one OH Reserve Best in Show, 3 OH Working Group Wins, one regular Working Group Win & one Working Group 4th place.

Not too shabby!

When not winning ribbons, Brio is kissing babies and acting goofy.

Love this silly boy!

My handsome boy did pretty well in Massachusetts at the CT River Working Dog Specialties and all breed shows. Best of Breed for both Specialty shows and one Best of Breed and one Select placement at the all Breed shows. Expertly handled by Vickie Venzen this weekend.
Thank you to all the judges for this recognition and Vickie for making it happen!

Love this boy to pieces! Looks like he will be competing at Westminster Kennel Club again this year, then we take a break!

Out of coat, but still handsome.

Penny was a good girl and had fun her first time around the ring, Best of Opposite Sex both days to earn her first few points.
She is definitely in the ugly duckling phase, but there is a swan in there somewhere...

No longer at the Garden, nor benched, but remains one of the most notorious shows in USA.

What a difference a year makes!

Had a great couple days with great friends and some fantastic dogs in NY. Brio is finally looking like a grown up and getting competitive with the big dogs and professionals. Two AKC group 4 placements and two Owner Handled group 1st amongst a VERY competitive ring of working dogs.

To put the cherry on top, Brio also earned #5 Owner Handled national ranking for 2023, making him eligible for the year end competition in Orlando this December.

Could not be prouder of this handsome home bred, Owner Handled young dog.

Thank you to Judges Richard Blanchard, Ms. JoAnne M Buehler, Ms. Jan N Paulk and Mr. John Constantine-Amodei for the Breed and group placements

So proud of my home bred always owner handled boy, Brio!
Ending out the 2023 year as #5 Owner Handled Malamute in the nation. Love him to pieces!
