olive wins dca triathlon, part 2

DCA President Carl Holder, John Willmore, Diane Webb, and Olive!
Here is a full report from Diane!
We're back from the Dachshund Club of America National Specialty --

48 dachshunds qualified in at least one DCA 2014 field or companion event (field, earthdog, agility, obedience, or rally) and 7 qualified in two events.  Probably around 100 or more dachshunds participated in these events.

Only three dachshunds qualified in 3 events and were Triathlon qualifiers -- our three girls!

-- Olive, who received 16 points from earthdog, agility and obedience.
-- Bossa, who earned 16 points in field, earthdog, and agility.
-- Asti, who earned 10 points in field, agility, and rally.

Olive received one more point than Bossa in Triathlon Conformation to finish with 19 points and is the DCA Triathlon Dog of 2014!

To recap our DCA --

We started with field trials in January.  Bossa won the Open All Age Bitch stake and Best Open, and finished her Field Championship (5 triathlon points).  Asti was awarded an Award of Merit from the Field Champion Bitch stake (6 points).  And Olive was robbed. ;-)

Olive had to qualify in Junior Earthdog the next day to keep her Triathlon hopes alive, and she did (3 pts).  Bossa easily qualified in Junior Earthdog as well (3 pts.)

Olive needed to earn top points in both agility and obedience at DCA last week, and she did.  She qualified in first place in both Masters Preferred Standard and Jumpers with Weaves (9 pts), earning both Preferred High in Trial awards and her PAX (Preferred Agility Excellent) title.

Then, Olive earned a score of 188 in Veteran Novice obedience (4 pts) on Thursday -- conditions were tough (hot and sunny on grass with goose poop) and this was the best score earned by any dachshund in obedience.

Bossa earned her Novice JWW agility title on April 25 and we gambled by moving her up to Open JWW for DCA.  She came through in style, qualifying in first place (8 pts) and earning the JWW High in Trial. Bossa's not quite ready for rally or obedience. ;-)

Asti needed to qualify in agility and rally, events in which she has solid skills but hasn't done in several years.  She had a great performance in Novice FAST Preferred (2 pts) on Monday and fought her nerves enough to qualify with a 78 in Advanced Rally (2 pts) on Friday.

I won't dwell on Triathlon Conformation (the final event on Friday) which once again was a bit of a debacle.  In the end, Olive got 3 points and Bossa 2 points, making Olive the Triathlon winner.  Asti also got 2 points and finished in third place with 12 points.

We are extremely proud of all of them!  It is the accomplishment of a lifetime for Olive, who has now qualified in three Triathlons over five years.  Bossa almost won at just over two years old and continues to show great promise.  And Asti showed what a talented girl she really is.

olive double qualifies day two

12/2/2012

SCT for Excellent Standard was 70 seconds. Olive ran it in 63.47 for 6 MACH points. (See video.)

SCT for Excellent Jumpers was 47 seconds which Olive made on the nose.
The footing was pretty bad today. The ground was soaked in the rings. It drizzled off and on and the light spots in the ring are rice husks put down to dry up the mud. I'm proud of Olive for keeping up her effort.   - John Willmore
I am proud of all of you! Congratulations!

In Excellent Standard, Olive ran the Standard Course Time  of 73 seconds in 61.88 for 11 MACH points. (see video)

In Excellent Jumpers, Olive ran the SCT of 45 seconds in 42.50 for 2 more MACH points toward MACH2.
A cooler day, small breakfast with victory boxes after each run. Olive looked like she was having fun, both in and out of the ring.  - John Willmore
This was at the Keeshond Club of Southern California in Walnut, California. Congratulations to John, Diane, and Olive!

Olive Is Master Agility CHAMPION!

8/11/2012

With temperatures close to 100 degrees, a soaked-down Olive earns the final point needed for her Master Agility Champion (MACH) title. She qualified with 10 MACH points on the Excellent Standard course under judge Marquand Cheek at the DASH trial in Fountain Valley, CA.

(How interestingly coincidental that Marq Cheek was the judge that the very first MACH dachshund, MACH Jackie Brink v Dorndorf L VCD2 RN TT, owned and handled by Maxine Brinker of Illinois, titled under in Wisconsin in 2001!)

On the entire west coast, Olive is the third MACH dachshund behind two smooths, thus she is the first MACH longhair.

AND, she is the first Master Agility Champion dachshund in the state of California.

HUGE C@NGRATULATI@NS on your awesome accomplishment to John, Diane, and Olive!!!!!!

Olive's co-owner Diane Webb writes, "Here is the video link for her Excellent Standard run today when she was 14 sec under Standard Course Time!  You can see that both from a sniffiness and line standpoint, she could do even better than this."

Congratulations to Olive, John, and Diane on your 'Excellent' performances!
