2016 IN REVIEW

We did do some showing in 2016 with wonderful results.

"Jamie" Nitelatches The Blacklist earned his championship going BOB from the classes and onto a group 4th.
The very next show "Jamie" won the Group. Co-owner Bonnie Taylor (Bonnyville Shelties) and I where thrilled.

"Marcus" Bonnyville's Leading Man garnered 9 points toward his championship and he will be out in 2017 to try for that last point.

I am now on the bottom half of the Sporting Group and hope to finish in 2017.

I wish all my family and friends a happy, healthy 2017!

See you at the shows.

2013 IN REVIEW

We managed to add two new champions this year "Patrick" and "Katie". They are littermates sired by Ch Nitelatches Grandgables Ironman out of Bonnyville Nitelatches Timeles.

On February 2, 2013 Nitelatches The Mentalist "Patrick" completed his championship, beautifully presented by Taylor Stevenson.

May 2013 I stepped into the ring and managed to get the last points on "Katie" Nitelatches Duchess Of Wight to complete her championship. Congratulations to co-owner Deborah Hodges.

On a personal level I completed my Group 3 permit for the top half of the group and now working on the bottom half. Hopefully will be licensed for Group 3 by the end of 2014....

The year did not end well for me as I lost my best friend. On November 17, 2013 my dearest friend Linda Millman Robertson passed away very suddenly. I miss her so much, that beautiful smile....

I hope that 2014 brings happiness to all and I am sure my friend will watch over me as I continue my judging career, a path that she put me on

2012 IN REVIEW

The CSSA National Specialty Show was held in Ancaster Ontario this year.
It was a wonderful way to meet up with old friends from across the country and make some new ones.
CH Nitelatchs Grandgables Ironman "Charlie" won the Stud Dog class and we where thrilled.

Overall our year was fairly quiet....we did manage to obtain a championship on "Marley" Nitelatches I Am Legend. We put 7 points on brother "Patrick" Nitelatches The Mentalist and 2 points on sister "Katie" Nitelatches Duchess of Wight co-owned with Deb & Paul Hodges.

Ch Linspans Nitelatches Pokerstar "Daniel" was awarded BEST OF WINNERS for a 5 point major at the Central Ohio Shetland Sheepdog Association Specialty Show. Our thanks to judge James Barrett and handler Cheryl Pike

"Daniel's" first litter arrived July 22, 2012 so look for them in the show ring in 2013

The year did end very saddley as I lost my heart dog "Daisy" MBPIG Ch Nitelatches Driving Miss Daisy (dam of 4 champions)..20 July 2002 to 20 December 2012.

May 2013 to good to all....see you at the shows !!
