It was a wild week weather wise and the Master National came with a twist or two this year. That being said, the Stellar crew did a great job! I had a fantastic run with five passes! One was a second Master National pass and Master National Title for Blackie. What a great dog!

Many thanks go out to all that supported our effort at the test. Wendy, Lee, and Debbie worked behind the scenes training and getting to and the from the test so that we could do our best at the test, and special thanks to Bill & Lee Hanes, Robert & Molly Rascoe, Marty & Jan Thompson, and my mother, Loa Morris for their help through out the week. They stuck with us through the whole ordeal and were greatly appreciated. I couldn't have done it without you all!
Don D. was kind enough to send photos from a few of the series. We had a ton or rain and then some beautiful bright days for this marathon retriever test. See the photos here:
