June
2, 1998, "Jake" was bred by Paul and Margaret Hardy of MarPal
Boxers, in Hazel Green, AL.
Jake
joined my
house at 3 months of age. I had planned to possibly show him in
conformation
but as he aged decided not to. I started him at 6 months in a
basic
obedience class and got the bug.
Jake completed his CD in 3 straight
trials gathering two placements and one award. He earned his first
leg on April 1st, 2000 at the Nashville Dog Training Club, under judge
Mr. J.T. Winn, who is a boxer breeder and lover. His second leg
came
the next day under judge Mrs. J.K. Jones. That day he won 3rd
place
and Highest Scoring Working Dog. Jake finished his CD in grand
style,
May 7, 2000 at the American Boxer Club National Specialty, taking 2nd
place
under judge Mr. Gillespie.
Jake
passed his
Temperment Test in August '02 and also earned a Canine Good Citizen
award from AKC. He is working towards his Therapy Dog
certification as well.
He is currently showing in Rally quickly earning his Rally Novice
title, and
recently picked up a leg for his Rally Advanced title at ABC, winning
First Place!
