There just aren’t adequate words to describe Bo — he’s truly a special dog. ❤️

We began his RACH journey last year at the Cheyenne shows, but after Bo suffered an injury, we took a few months off to let him heal. Slowly but surely, we started chipping away at that goal… and fittingly, we finished his RACH at the very show where it all began. 🏆 I was hopeful that along our journey we could achieve at least one High Triple and one High Combine - we achieved multiple. Always having fun together.

Bo is the 5th Cane Corso to ever earn the title of Rally Champion.

Thank you, Bo, for always giving 100% and being the best boy, I could ask for. 💕🐾

Pretty and smart — Thidy can do it all!

Huge congratulations to for finishing the 2025 NOHS year as the #1 Cane Corso! 🏆
Not only did they shine in the ring, but they also earned multiple performance titles, including Thidwick's RM and RAE, both earned in August! 🎉

A heartfelt thank you to all the judges who have awarded Thidwick along the way. ❤️🐾

Mike and I had planned to go together to the Rapid City, SD shows — I’d never been and thought it would be a fun little trip. But life happened, and with an unexpected guest at home, he stayed back.

I debated taking the four dogs I had entered on my own to a show I’d never attended and decided to scale back to three — Aster, Morton, and Bo. They absolutely did not disappoint! Between 8 Rally runs, 3 Obedience runs, 3 times in the Breed ring, and 2 in Group, we made the most of it. While not perfect, we earned our fair share of ribbons. I definitely got my steps in — and while I’m exhausted, I couldn’t be prouder of the dogs. 💜

A huge thank you to the Black Hills Dog Training Club for putting on such a well-run trial with fun prizes. The camaraderie among your members was inspiring to see. I hope to join more of your future events!

If you have never been to the Rapid City SD shows, it is a fun little show with beautiful show grounds. Thank you to all the club members and our wonderful judges.

Such good dogs. Lots of pretty ribbons, some new titles, and time spent in great company.

Thanks for a fun weekend and distraction. Congrats on all of Kros success!

Thanks to the Icelandic Sheepdog Association of America for a fun trial with great judges.

🌺 Last but certainly not least — Zinnia! 🌺

We had big plans for Zinnia this year, hoping to see her shine in the Cane di Ferro Challenge and compete in Rally, Obedience, and FastCATs. Unfortunately, she came into season just before the show, so those events were off the table.

But Zinnia didn’t let that slow her down! 💪
✨ Barn Hunt: Earned her Rat Instinct title and her first leg in Rat Novice.
✨ CGC Urban.
✨ Made the cut every day in a very competitive special bitch class.
✨ National Specialty: Took the First Award of Merit.
✨ CCAA Regional: Walked away with Best of Opposite S*x.

To know Zinnia is to love her—she’s smart, funny, and endlessly loving. We are so proud of everything she accomplished and can’t wait to see what she does next! 💜🐾
