Nail Hill Australian Cattle Dogs

Real Cattle Dogs that are tough as nails....

End of a successful year

As the year comes to a close we look back while keeping an eye to what lies ahead.

With all the negative things that could have happened in 2015 to derail the best laid plans, I feel very blessed to say none of them did.

Our main goal this year was to take our current special GCH Buzzards Cruising at Warp Speed "Hoshi" to her Bronze level championship, mission accomplished thanks to her handler Jennifer Bittner and Hoshi's mom Carol Moore, I even got a few points on her myself!
Secondary goal was to get her introduced to stock and see that side of her, that was a total success as well but to do that consistently while chasing the Bronze GCH is super hard.

Hoshi really likes traveling and takes most of the show stuff in stride, she certainly doesn't dislike showing but more of a take it or leave it attitude.
As long as she can be with her people she is great.

On the horizon, next year holds some interesting plans. We have decided to pursue a rally title on Hoshi and depending on that go after a herding title.
We are getting excited as a new addition to the Nail Hill crew is going to be making his introduction soon.

Then lastly I have been asked several times this year about a waiting list for puppies from Hoshi, All testing is completed but I have always said I really don't know when that will happen and that is still 100% true, but what I can say is 2016 might be a busy year on the Hill !!

Have a great Christmas and a very happy new year !!
