July 2008
At the Tracking Club of Victoria tracking trial held at Broadford on 12th July, Angel performed at her best level yet and completed a beautiful Track 6, graded Very Good, to achieve her Tracking Champion title. Added to the show title received last month, this now makes her a Dual Champion. A lovely way to complete her tracking career – we are so very proud of her.
June 2008
We proudly announce that Bear gained his Tracking Champion title at the Hastings Obedience Dog Club tracking trial at Flinders on 1st June 2008. This now makes Bear a Dual Champion. He can have a well-deserved break before starting his obedience and therapy training.
At the Canine Amenities Championship Show on 21st June, Angel was awarded Challenge Bitch and Runner-up Best of Breed – the final points to achieve her Australian Champion title.
April 2008
At the Dobermann Club of Victoria's Annual General Meeting on 18th April, Bear was awarded the Outstanding Achievement Award for 2007. This was to acknowledge his achievements and titles over several disciplines for that year - conformation and tracking. He holds the magnificent Dobermann Trophy for the year and a sash.
Angel received a sash for Highest Scoring Dobermann at the Inverleigh Tracking Trial last year and she was also a contender for the Outstanding Achievement Award.
Both Angel and Bear were awarded their Dobermann Club title sashes at the same time. We were both extremely proud of our "kids" and their hard work for 2007.
February 2008
Once again, our Bear has undergone surgery after swallowing a needle and cotton. He swallowed his teddy bear's head when he was only 6 months old and that required surgery.
We searched everywhere for the needle because we did not believe he would actually swallow a needle! After a sleepless night, I took him to the Vet just to check it out. Sure enough, the x-ray clearly showed the needle still in the stomach and, because we could not move it up or down, surgery was the only alternative.
Bear has fully recovered, this time with only a small bald patch under his belly. Just in time for the SA Specialty weekend.

"I am very proud to congratulate you on winning the Dogtrial's Victorian Tracking Dog 2007 with Ch Kaiela Hot Venture TDX.
You had a great year, and you must be truly proud of this wonderful dog. We understand how much hard work and effort has gone into training and competing to earn this position in the Dogtrial's competition during 2007. It says so much about your beautiful and loving companion, and also about you both as a team."
