| 12-9 Virginia - Rappahanock RC held their hunt test today 
    in the snow and cold water!  Real chesapeake hunting sceniero for sure.  
    Quite a few dogs didn't care for the water but I'm proud to say that Thor 
    did excellent with Al handling and completed Thor's JH title!  Congrats 
    on a job well done. 4 for 4.  Redlion's Notorious 
    JH CWC WDX at 16 months. 
    
      
    12-10 - new developments with the puppies!  Redlion's Not for Sale, 
    mother of 7 five day old chesapeakes, today got 3 more!  Only they are 
    yellow labs.  A friend called in dire need of a 2nd mom for 3 yellow 
    lab pups as she had trouble with their mother.  They were rushed down 
    to Gina in MD who has Sale's litter and mama Sale took them right in, so now 
    is raising 10!  Gina, Thomas and Sale and babies are doing great!  
    Thanks so much for saving these Lab babies!

    Nov 6 - Also running was Redlion's 
    Notorious got his 1st leg in the JH  O/H Al Melhus.  This was the 
    first hunt test Al has ever ran and he was dog #1 so he was very very 
    nervous but the dog did perfect! 
  
    
      Nov 6 - Also running was Can Ch 
      Redlion's Hit Doctor** Can MH JH  "Joe" got his 2nd leg in the 
      Master Hunter!  We have had a tuff go for the last two months.  He did 
      good work with the trainer but he and I weren't working as a team and the 
      transition to owner takes some training also and he wasn't going on the 
      blinds for me. But things are good finally and and we got the completion. 
      He actually was one of a very few dogs that had no handles on all 3 test 
      setups.  The first setup was a land triple with pheasants and two blinds 
      up through the marks.  Of 41 only about 10 dogs didn't handle and Joe was 
      one!

    American Chesapeake Club's National Show, Frederick, MD - Competition is 
    always tuff at a national so my goal is to get a ribbon with every dog.  
    There were 350 entries and some classes had many entries. It was a great 
    show and even those that didn't get a ribbon were looking good and handled 
    well.  Thanks to Brian Summers, Debbie and Bernie Rivas, Gina Downin & 
    Thomas and my sister Jean Gilmore and her friend Chris for running dogs back 
    and forth to the van for me, airing and feeding dogs and being great 
    supporters and taking pictures!
