I'm sorry to report that Jilly left me for the
Rainbow Bridge in April 2011. She is deeply loved and will be forever missed.
U-CD Jilly CD, RN, CGC, 5-24-1996 ~ 4-2-2011
Jilly achieved every dream I had for her when
we began training in obedience... and THEN some! Of all of the accomplishments I've been privileged to achieve with my dogs,
I am proudest of Jilly. She's a wonderful obedience performer and a first-rate companion. Unfortunately, though she was fully
trained through open, I was never able to advance to open competition with her because she tore both ACLs.
At the young age of ten,
Jilly earned her Rally Novice title with TWO perfect scores of
100, and two class wins!! Jilly came out of six years' retirement to earn this title with these wonderful scores; I
am extremely proud of her.
Jilly's accomplishments in obedience include:
AKC
Finished her AKC novice title with an average
score of 194.7
Top-scoring obedience Malamute in the U.S. in
1999 (MQ)
AMCA's 1999 "Blackhawk Memorial Award" Winner
1999 AMCA National Specialty High in Trial Winner

Won her class five of the six times she was
shown
Finished her CD with three straight first place
wins.
