We were incredibly fortunate to have Pete win the Gillette
Stake, a special stake for dual champion dogs. This was my first (and maybe last
;-) time to let one of my IG's run with bigger dogs. I'm very committed to
breeding beautiful functional dogs, so I really wanted to let Pete compete in
this special stake. To have him win was probably the most exciting thing that
has ever happened to me in my entire dog career!
