It was a good weekend for Caisson dogs..... Cassie added another dual award title to her name this weekend. She finished her Herding Started (sheep) title on A Course. Cassie believes that herding (as well as everything else in life) should be a timed event and the FASTEST dog should win, so for her to control herself enough to make it through the course nicely, makes me very proud of her :-) Cassie will now be known as PAM CH Carousel Farms Caisson MX MXJ OF TD HSAs RN TC OFAh&e. Not to be outdone by his mother, CH Yankee (CH Caisson's Unconditional Surrender OA OAJ NF PT OFA) debuted in Herding Started (A course sheep) this weekend. He qualified in 2 out of 2 runs, winning FIRST PLACE in a very large started class today (beating several very nice border collies, shelties, Australian Cattle Dogs, Belgian Tervurens, and others). Yankee has only been herding a few months and I am thrilled with how well he's doing. Yankee is proudly owned by E.J. & Julie Degen, Nicky & Lew Bunch. Not to be outdone by his mother or brother, Cassie's other son, Sherman, won a major reserve this weekend! Just 2 weeks ago, Sherman saved his family from a house fire. Now, he's a hero AND a major reserve winner! Sherman is also known as Caisson's Atlanta Burning PT OFA and is happy to be owned by Karen & Jim Lollar. CONGRATULATIONS, Sherman, Karen, & Jim!!! :-) Julie Degen www.caissonkennels.com "A well-balanced German Shepherd has a title on both ends!" Delicious ideas to please the pickiest eaters.
