New American Champion!!

We at Cairnisle are so pleased to announce that Dallas (Gch Cairnisles Sharp Dressed Man) Is now an American Champion.  We went to Ann Arbor Michigan  March 8-10  where Dallas picked up his second 5 point major on Saturday, and his third 5 point Major on Sunday as well as Best of Breed  over 80 Cairn Terriers including Specials from the Bred By class. We are so proud of Dallas, and plan to take him out the rest of this year as well to see if we can capture #1 Cairn in Canada for a second time!

UPDATE

2018 was a quiet year for Dallas. We took a break from the show ring for him, and focused instead on Nike, (Cairnisle Runs With Wolves).  Nike did not disappoint. his first show in 2018, Nike went Best of Breed at the AKC winter classic second day in, and Winners Dog the third day. All in all we finished Nike in 3 weekends, and he now  has his Canadian Championship.
we did make one weekend exception for Dallas in 2018, and that was for the AKC Summer Classic. Dallas was entered into the CTCC regional show under Breeder Judge Margaret Jones, and won Best of Breed at this Specialty. Dallas still had his Mojo!

On Our Way to becoming an American Champion

January 21, 2012
We sent Pippen to Portland with Joanne Noffsinger, we are hoping to attain her American Championship.  First 2 days She received reserve winners bitch, yesterday I got the call.. Pippen had won Best of Breed, from the classes under respected Terrier Judge Ken McDermott, for a 5 point major!..We are very excited over this win, mostly because it was Ken McDermott!!   We have 2 more days to go, and hopefully more of the same will be happening..

Update

Pippen picked up a BOW for 2 more points on Sunday.  The Judges remarks about her all weekend were ..awesome coat and very well Groomed.  This was the type of Cairn they always had in mind, eyes, head, coat, size, everything they wanted to see in a Cairn Terrier.

 

Naughtiest pups around

January 1, 2012


11 weeks old, and I have to admit I have very naughty puppys, sweet, but very naughty.  We went shopping the other day and I had bought a 10 kg bag of sugar. My husband dropped it off in the kitchen thinking I would take care of it and put it away. And I had every intention of doing that, till...I got distracted. Came back 15 minutes later to an absolute disater.  Sugar all over my floor,  and  Parker and Willow with bellies so full of sugar they were ready to burst.  What took 15 minutes to ...

Fall

October 10, 2011

Well Fall is here and so is the changing of seasons. This year so far has been great for Pippen, despite earlier disapointments,  lessons were learned and things have changed.

We went to a BC dog show earlier in September but had no luck, but that was ok It will take Pippen a wee bit to wrap her mind around showing again.  meanwhile we went to the island afterwards and had a wonderful time with Pippen.  She was on the beaches and had fun chasing seagulls, and just sniffing everywhere an...

Marco wins a Best Puppy in Group

August 16, 2011
I am very pleased with this last weekend. Normally I go on about Pippen , but today its all about Marco. Marco is Dott and Davys ooopsie puppy, and what an awesome Ooopsie he is.  At 10 months of age he now sits on 8 points towards his Canadian Championship, and won a Best Puppy in Group this last weekend. I am a proud Breeder.

This brings me to a question I always ponder..As Breeders do we sell our best or our second best?  I believe if My Kennel name is on that Dog it better be my bes...

Disapointments

June 26, 2011
This weekend I went to Grande Prairie for the dog show.I was letting a Handler take her in to see  what he could do with her as opposed to my handling.  He handled her well, but we did not win. This is ok, it is part of the game.  Later on he asked if he could remove some of her dead coat, I said yes (and she did have some dead hair in her, actually quite a lot, we were in transition, and I was trying to keep coat on her until her new coat was a proper length)  and watched how he was going to...

to Neuter or not to Neuter

June 15, 2011
There has been a big debate on spaying and neutering your pets. When is the best time before 6 months or later when the pet is mature. My feelings on this is the later the better.  In Dogs in Canada, ther is a wonderful article about neutering your dog too young.
