November
11/12/09 - 11/15/09: The crew heads out to the Mid-Ohio Cluster in Columbus, OH for a long weekend. Nelo makes his debut at 6 mos as a 13", and while he displayed his puppy antics to the fullest, he was still quite the showman. We celebrated yet another class win for Chanel in Jr. Showmanship (handling Nelo no less), and yet another 4 point major on Falco to close the weekend.
11/26/09: Glade Mill would like to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!
October
10/3/09: We spend one day in Aliquippa, PA for the Fort Stueben Kennel Association's fall show. Due to our failure to move Z up from the classes, he takes WD and BOW for another 4 pt major. Falco also gets WD and BOW for more points towards his championship.
September
9/5/09: We head out to Ebensburg, PA for one day of the Altoona Area KA shows. We specialed Sierra for fun and she got BOV for 13", while Gimme got WB and BOV for 15". What is more than we could have possibly hoped for is Chanel handling this 11 mos old pup in the group ring and getting a Group 4 placement with her. We are very proud as owners, breeders, and family members for this team.
9/19/09-9/20/09: It's beautiful weather in Prospect, PA for the Autumn Classic. On Saturday, Chanel handles Gimme to WB for a 5 pt major to finish her championship.

In addition, Chanel wins her Jr's class both days to qualify for Eukanuba.
August
8/1/09-8/2/09: For the second portion of Canfield, Z gets his turn winning the major as well as BOS on Saturday.

5/5/09- 5/8/09: The beagles head down to Raleigh, NC for the National Beagle Club of America's annual specialty. Despite the ominous weather, a good time is had by all amongst the fellowship of our fellow beaglers.

5/21/09-5/25/09: We pack up the kiddos for the Memorial Weekend Classic in New Castle, PA. The pups all get their first experiences outside in grass rings, and Falco picks up the major on Saturday.
