2012 was a very special year for Kanzu’s agility Gal Pals. Vicki LePenske, Kanzu’s friend and agility handler teamed with her Weimaraners to achieve the amazing accomplishment of having the #1 and #2 Weimaraners in the 2012 agility rankings. Scarlet (MACH6 Pearl Essence Scarlet O’Hara CD RAE MXG2 MJC2) was the #1 Weimaraner and her sister Echo (MACH8 Pearl Essence Aurora’s Echo CD RA MXB3 MJS3) was close behind in the #2 slot. (Mind you!… those MACH numbers in front of their names mean the number of times each girl has achieved the 20 Double Qualifying scores and 750 points to earn an Agility Championship). So Scarlet is an agility champion 6 times and Echo 8 times. That is a lot of parties we have had to celebrate Scarlet and Echo’s accomplishments.
In 2012 the girls also ranked in the top 5 and were invited to the prestigious Annual AKC Invitational Agility Trial in Florida. This year, the Weimaraners were accompanied by Sneakers (Crossroads Hi Heeled Sneakers MXP OJP) who was the high scoring Basset Hound at the invitationals. Last, but not least, in Vicki’s amazing handling accomplishments this year, Vicki and Kanzu earned the 2012 #1 Rhodesian Ridgeback ranking at the preferred jump height.
Huge Congratulations to Vicki, her girls and Kanzu for their placements in the 2012 rankings and invitational performance.
