To Joe and Jane,

Congratulations on a Title well earned and a truly great dog, well done!

RWT & PJ

Congratulations Joe, Jane and of course Blackie, on your well deserved 'grand champion' title. I remember well the first time I saw Blackie run, at a trial here in Canberra a year or so ago. His quality & style was very evident even to a raw beginner such as myself. Well done.

Cheers
