kanzbogRecently the AKC added new agility titles to recognize consistency and longevity. They began recording levels to the Master Agility Excellent (MX) and Master Excellent Jumpers With Weaves (MXJ) titles. For each 25 qualifying runs in each class a new level is awarded; Bronze, Silver, Gold. When the dog reaches 100 qualifying runs a century title is awarded. Since receiving his MACH in January, 2012 Kanzu has been competing less frequently and now in the Preferred jump height. The weekend of May 18 and 19, 2013 Kanzu gave a special gift to Linda and agility handler and special friend Vicki. Linda and Vicki not only share a love of Kanzu but they share the same birthday. This year they celebrated their shared B-day at the San Diego Rhodesian Ridgeback Club 2-day trial at Navy Training Center in San Diego. On Saturday Kanzu earned his 30th qualifying score in the Standard class earning his MXP3 title and on Sunday he earned his 30th qualifying score in Jumpers with Weaves for his MJP3 title. And to make the weekend even more special he earned a beautiful rosette from the San Diego Rhodesian Ridgeback Club for being the High Scoring Rhodesian Ridgeback in the Trial. It was a very special birthday for Linda and Vicki.
