In case you missed the posts at the end of the National Amat, Loppy and Mike are still in contention in the Seventh Series!

Go Peakes!

WAY TO GO !!!
GO LOPPY AND MIKE GO!!!

WOW - according to Working Retriever Central, Loppy and Big Mike have been called back to the 9th series!!

Students of breed history, when was the last time a Peake made it so far?

Claire

That is so awesome!!!!!


Rooting for you Mike and Loppy....history in the making!

It's more than awesome. 9th series is a dream.

Best of Luck for Mike & "Loppy" to finish this National.

It has only been 23 years since another field trial Peake went 10 series and finished. Some of us remember how ecstatic we were for Carol Anderson and "Jazzy" when that happened in '84.

Good wishes comin' your way Mike!

Sigh. They got so far! Both the AKC and WRC now list Loppy as having been dropped. WRC doesn't reflect that in its list of callbacks - only in the text of this morning's events. A big up to Mike, Loppy, Linda, and Yakkity for reaching a level of excellence that some of us can only dream about!

Claire

WRC had them dropped when I looked about 2 a.m. then I come back now and it looks like their still playing.

Here it says 8th series, does that indicate that they ran the 8th and then were dropped or that they also ran the 9th?

Whichever, a great feat! Congrats!

If it says 8th and the information is correct, then the dog was dropped after the 8th series and before the 9th series.
