HUGE CONGRATULATIONS! To Brooke Oaks and her Standard Poodle Caden on their FIRST POODLE EVER AHBA Herding Trial Championship !
YES! Caden is the first AHBA HTCh Poodle!
I am so pleased and proud of this team! Brooke has worked hard and long to learn stock work, stock, and handler do’s don’s ! It’s funny now but not too long ago Brooke had a valuable in trial lesson on handler errors. I laugh as I remember it…wasn’t so funny at the time but now…well…after this past weekend with stock that was fresh (rain and storms do that to them) a new venue, a totally new way to have to work the stock…did I mention wind, heat then very cool temps? Brooke sailed thru the trial like the champion she finished! With ease, grace and style! I was proud to say I know this young , smart, lady! and her fine Standard smart Poodle!
