This boy has been more than worthy of many titles
however a girl meaning myself can only do so much
you know ;) After attending PCA Regional Specialty Show in 2013,
I received a concussion stopping me from doing any shows period for awhile!
Every few years or so I carefully select a breeding,
raise the litter and then show my picks in both

Barn Hunt
Valley Dog Sports
Hillsboro, Oregon, USA
December 2nd & 3rd, 2017
Well FINALLY we went and tried out Barn Hunt!
I had been wanting to try for some time now since a few years before my concussion back just after Santos, Sparkle and I went to PCA Regionals in
Salem, Oregon September 2013 where Santos achieved his
AKC Rally Advanced Title
With one practice run at Barn Hunt Academy in Bellingham, Washington
two weeks prior, I decided it was time to just do it!
So five Standard Poodles BHA Registered and entered, it was a
Road Trip to Hillsboro, Oregon the day before the Trials!!!
Saturday December 2nd, 2017
Instinct Test, Trial 1
Judge: Dan Mata
The first Instinct Trial, it was me that did not click onto exactly which tube the rat was in until our one minute was up! Santos indicated just as I was figuring it out.

Just hanging around ...
At the older age of just on 14 years old my bed is too high
for the seniors so I do not allow them up anymore however look who
jumped on the bed two days in a row (below right) after we went
for our yearly adjustments at the chiropractor?!!
I think after two days of me saying OFF he got the point and has not done
it again since. Santos is in great shape however at his age I want to keep
it that way and I do not want him jumping off the
bed slipping and hurting himself. ♥

I was very pleased I decided to partake in the Poodle Specialties and
make the drive to Salem, Oregon! It was great to be reacquainted with so
many Poodle Lovers and Breeders I had not seen in some time.
Catching up with Poodles I also had not seen in years was wonderful along with shopping for Leggings for the boys, new Critter Beds and some long awaited Bling Collars!!
Extra special was seeing a couple of my pups and their owners
who came to see all the Poodles and meet back up with their Poodle Family.
That is always the best!

Two American Titles
Saturday June 29, 2013
Bell Vernon Kennel Association
Mt.Vernon, Washington, U.S.A.
Today was the start of the heat wave on the West Coast. Up to then it has been raining and quite cool in the mornings. I was already feeling it at the U.S./Canadian Border line up at 8:30 AM and it did not get any better ugh! I have suffered heat exposure before so I do not do well in it anymore. I even considered turning around to come home! LOL
We persevered continuing onwards south to Mt.Vernon. Thankfully the
I-5 bridge that had collapsed back in May just north of Mt.Vernon had been temporarily fixed so we did not have a detour to contend with. We arrived at the show grounds just in time to see the end of Rally Advanced finding a nice big tree in the corner close to the Obedience & Rally Rings which was a very well received spot by all seeking shade :)

Ok so the walk throughs went well so I thought however
when dog and handler together went in the ring ... like I said and not making excuses it was hot!!! LOL Trying to remember back what happened on our course is just not there now other than Santos was distracted as were a lot of the dogs as it was the first outdoor Trial! I know I know PROOFING!
At one Station I somehow got his leash under his front leg I think when
we did the Down and Stop Station! Then when I tried to fix it upon
Judge Alice Peterson's instruction Santos thought I was giving him another signal to down so down he went! LOL Talk about fumble dee and fumble dumb!
Anyways I shan't go on as we did qualify for our 3rd Q from our third Trial taking a second in class to receive a new AKC Rally Novice Title! :)
With the 3 Rally Trials Santos accomplished 1 High in Class and 2 second places in class giving him the name

Keeping ourselves hydrated and in the shade the best we could,

Under Judge Kent Delaney Santos and I took a High In Class to achieve our 3rd Q at our third Obedience Novice Trial from the Novice A Class for a

With the 3 Trials he accomplished 2 High in Class and 1 second place!

As Santos received his Rally Excellent Title yesterday we did not compete
in the rest of the Rally Trials we had entered concentrating on the
two Obedience Trials for today.
Obedience Trial #3 in Novice A under Judge Jeffery Lunder from Alberta, we did not qualify. On the recall Santos did something he has never done.....he just sat there looking at me after I called to him "Santos...Front". The Judge even leaned over looking at him twice LOL so finally I tilted my head to the side too and he came immediately!!! Of course that was two signals, one voice and then the head tilt considered as a signal. As Santos did not attempt the recall it was already a NQ. Someone brought to my attention the sound acoustics were not that good for hearing some of the commands ... oh well something else to proof for LOL
Obedience Trial #4 Novice A under Judge Carolyn Wray we received our
second Q with a score of 184.5

Our second event for Saturday is Rally Trial #1 in Rally Excellent A under Judge Carolyn Wray from Oregon, U.S.A. for a score of 82 and our second Q towards our RE.
This has been quite the feat as going from the Obedience Ring there is only one command being either hand or voice not both and in Rally Ring you may encourage your dog with both hand and voice signals together!
Our third event for Saturday is Rally Trial #2 in Rally Excellent A under Judge Carolyn Wray taking a HIC with a score of 85 giving us our 3rd Q for our

This morning was a far better drive across the Border being the

sort of that is! LOL
However it is somewhat a little nerve racking going from one ring to the other.
In the Novice Class A Santos took a score of 189 for 2nd place of 4 dogs for our 2nd Q towards our Companion Dog (CD).
They were doing the Walk Through for Rally while we were in the
Obedience Ring so missed that but still did good receiving a
score of 98 out of 100 taking a 1st - HIC out of 6 dogs competing for our
2nd Q under Judge Curt Allen Curtis.
I l♥ve my Santos and appreciate all the wonderful compliments from
everyone telling me how great he works for me & what a wonderful dog!!!
Extra big Thank You's to Gary and Bob for holding my video camera and
capturing my most favourite boy forever! ♥

My Father would have been 89 years old and Santos will be

DOGS IN REVIEW VOLUME 9, ISSUE 3 MAY 2005
OH CANADA! From the West by Dawne Deeley
Coming up for BIS - BBE was the barely-year-old Standard Poodle dog, Violet Sky Above, who is lovingly presented by Deborah Foster. Foster is one of those rare individuals who believes the amount of reward one can expect from a project can be gauged precisely by the amount of work put in. A relative newcomer to the sport of conformation exhibiting, Foster has already become a fixture on the West Coast scene, with several stout wins to her credit.

Thank you Dawne Deeley of Tsar Shadow Carelian Bear Dogs!!!

. . playing after a Show!
Santos has a sweet loving
disposition with a natural drive for retrieving.
I can ask him "What have you got?" being my biddable boy, he`ll bring whatever it is to me.
AKA "Santa Toes" named by my girlfriends 6 year old daughter as she paused with arms crossed holding her hand up to her face trying to remember his name and piped up Santa Toes!!!
It has stuck with all his friends!!!

Santos is a typey silver package
with clean sound balanced movement, covering the ground as a
Standard Poodle should. He stands 24" square at the shoulders.
He has full body with spring of rib, depth and breadth of chest with good fill. His temperament is proof of how he spends time and patience around puppies that maul him and his continual patience of a 7 month old puppy male leaving his ears soaked from constant chewing on! UGH!!!
He is a very biddable dog and he effortlessly glides over jumps.
I can`t wait to start
Obedience and Agility with him.
Fall of 2005
We started dabbling in Beginners Agility
with sis Viola, mom Shiraz & grandmom Zarrah.
He just loves it being soooo keen, fast and willing with the tendencies
to show off!!!!
I looked forward to begin Agility again in Fall of 2006 however it did not
happen due to the Dog Show Schedule in both
the United States and Canada.
