The Spaniel Annals

Journey’s never gotten a professional win photo with me.  I vaguely remember reasons why; when she got her CD, I was quite ill with thyroid disease (heading into surgery).  We pretty much finished the title and she returned to her breeder.  Then she’s been bounced back and forth since then, although she’s now here to stay with me.  To celebrate that fact, I thought I’d post her first placement/titling photo that we got for her Open title.  It’s not the greatest shot–I wish I didn’t always look like I’d just stuck my fingers in a light socket–but it’s a good one of her.  Journey and I have room for improvement, but I was very pleased with how far we’d come with this last leg (see the earlier video), and she had only been back with me since June after having her litter.  Way to go, my Journey-girl!
