Rest Stop on the Trip Home
 

Hannah was 10 weeks old in May 2004 when we travelled to Toledo, Ohio anxious to bring home our Gilnockie Gordon.


As a puppy and to this day Hannah has the sweetest temperament a dog could have. She's a little brat who always gets her way because she's just too cute to argue with.

Besides being pretty Hannah has proven to be very intelligent and a quick learner. She can be the star of the show, or the class clown, depending on the day.

We are having so much fun working with her at both Conformation and a variety of Performance Sports. This page is her showcase!
 
When Hannah arrived home she and housemate Winchester quickly became best friends.
Chester was a great help, teaching her everything he felt she must learn, including counter-surfing.



 CONFORMATION
 


Hanna earned the CKC Conformation title "Champion" (CH) in February 2005.
We were so proud that not only did she finish as a puppy but her points included wins over adult entries, both dog and bitch; and that most of her shows she was handled by owner (daddy) Bill who is new to the sport!


At Ontario Breeders in February (2006) Hannah went from Best of Breed to Group - and to our delight made the cut in a very competitive Group! Wow Hannah!


Aug/07 Hannah made her first appearance at an AKC all breed show and won WB for 1 point.



 

RALLY OBEDIENCE

In summer 2005, at just over one year old, Hannah received 3 qualifying legs and her Rally Novice title.
Nice job Hannah
!


At the Gordon Setter Club of America's National Specialty shows Oct/05 & June/06 Hannah entered the AKC Rally trials. She passed and placed in both; earning an amazing score of 97/100 and 3rd place in Cleveland!

AGILITY
We recently took the plunge into agility. Bill handled Hannah through the introductory course and she shows lots of potential. As you'll see in the photos below, agility's been her destiny from a very early age.

This is Hannah the puppy while still living with her breeder Sarah Armstrong, getting her first taste of "the tunnel" ... and Hannah now.

OBEDIENCE

October 2007 - 3rd CKC leg, 1st place, and her CD title!

Aug/07 Hannah made her obedience debut in Canfield, Ohio.
She did a great job, earning AKC legs for both trials entered, with scores of 188 and 191/200.

Hannah is currently attending Hunt classes! We're working with Ann Harris, and our goal is a JH next spring!
