GRHRCH UH DuckDawg's Eba Roll The Dice

'Dice'

I picked Dice up at the airport as a bouncing 7-week old puppy that I purchased sight unseen.  The minute Dice arrived, I knew he was special.  He was an absolute joy to train and we progressed through the Started and Seasoned tests easily.  The Finished tests posed more of a problem for us due to his handler – me.  Oh, he failed some due to his own mistakes but I flunked the most due to my errors.  There are many judges in Region 13 that have seen the two of us in rare form!   On the day he earned his HRCH, he was tremendous and I didn’t interfere.  It was a great day to run under Mark Powell DVM and Larry Davis.

Because of that special “something,” I knew we should go further but there was no way that I could train to the Grand level as my career wouldn’t allow the time.  Chris Jobman of Flatlander Kennels handled all of Dice’s Grand training.  Chris and Dice spent lots of time together and progressed through the 500 point mark with an almost perfect record.  Dice is only 4 years old and has passed 2 of the 3 Grands that he has run and I couldn’t be more thrilled.

He is one the most consistent, easy-going-in-the-house/fireball-in-the-field dogs around.  He is our #1 goose hunting dog and my #1 companion.  I thank all the judges we have run under for their dedicated effort to the HRC and all the members of Region 13 who are some of the best people around.  Lastly, a big thank you to Ron Green DVM who supports and encourages me and is the best kennel boy around not to mention husband!  I wouldn't be in this sport if it weren't for all the support of Region 13!
