OTIS ORCHARDS, WA, October 25, 2012 (Press-News.org) German Shepherd Breeder, I-Guard International traveled to the 2012 Rose City Working Dog Association (RCWDA) Regional Dog Trial and Conformation Show last month in Woodburn, Oregon. Jacqueline Lungu and the I-Guard team competed with three German Shepherds in the trial portion of the event and ten dogs competed in the conformation show.
Two out of three dogs were awarded titles in the trial and nine of ten placed in the show and were awarded trophies.
The highlights from the event included being awarded 1st place in the 9-12 month old category in the conformation show for both male and female German Shepherds with Hammer Vom I-Guard International and Heidi Vom I-Guard International.
Jacqueline Lungu competed with her 26 month old female, Yuca vom I-Guard International and was awarded the IPO 1. Kathy Babkirk and her dog, Lee, competed and earned a BH title. Raino Flugge was the judge for the trial portion of the weekend. It is a great accomplishment to earn a title under Flugge as he is known as for his tough judging.
The judge for the confirmation portion of the event was Show Judge, Frank Goldlust from Germany was present during the protection routine of Lungu and Yuca. During the show, Goldlust announced to the crowd, "There are only twenty dogs in the whole world that can work like Yuca does and show like she does."
"It was an honor to get that kind of compliment from a judge of his caliber," states Lungu. "It's always exciting to win at these regional events, but receiving a compliment from Frank is the greatest achievement we can receive. To get an IPO title under such a tough judge like Raino Flugee really proves that we have a solid training program and to do so well at the show proves that we are a leading German Shepherd Breeder and raise some great dogs."
Full trial and show results can be viewed on the RCWDA website.
