Now they can get on with all the joys of  running and jumping, advanced field work, agility etc. 

Thank  you owners for getting this done!  Results are posted on the OFFA web sites linked above.

Quinn from our 2012 litter has come for a short visit before his first show weekend. We are so happy to see him..such a good looking and brillant boy!  My problem is I never want to send him home..but of course I will.

I hope to get some photos soon.

'Thank you so much' goes to professional photographer Barna Tanko of Calgary Alberta for taking and providing these photos of my 3 - 8 month old Vizslas who ran their NAVHDA Natural Ability tests in August 2011. Barna is also one of the owners of the sire to the litter, Blaze, pictured below on the right with his son Sam.

Barna spent 2 full days walking the fields taking photos of all the dogs running their test.
