2010 was a wonderful year for us, despite a few doggy challenges. As was the case in 2009, our activity in the show ring continues to be limited by work and family commitments, meaning we didn't have the opportunity to attend as many shows as we would have liked. Nevertheless, we had a great time at the shows we did make it to -- due in no small part to our great group of friends and fellow exhibitors here in the Maritimes. We also had a fantastic trip to the American National, where three of our dogs picked up Best of Winners awards and a 4th captured Best of Breed twice plus two Group 2s and an Award of Merit. To say we were proud is an understatement. Just as important as any success we may have had this year, we are so pleased that our breed continues to do well in Canadian show rings. We would like to extend sincere congratulations to all TMT owners who are working hard to keep our breed in the spotlight, including this year's #1 Canadian Toy Manchester, GCh Diventy's Galahad and his owner, Diane Vendittoli.
If you have read previous years' reviews, one of the things you may notice this year is the number of new performance titlists on our list. As people learn what smart, versatile dogs TMTs can be, we are seeing more and more of our owners get involved in everything from agility and flyball to tracking and earthdog. We find the whole training process amazing (our own dogs rank among the most unobedient around) and are always thrilled to see them compete.
As always, the biggest congratulations and thanks must go to our owners, co-owners, fellow breeders and friends. Whether your dogs are competing in a ring or warming your feet on a cold night as a treasured pet, you are the people who make it possible for us to continue to do what we love. While the list is too long to recount, we do want to send special thanks to Kirsti & Eirik Kahrs for so generously sharing Tux and Drew with us. Importing dogs from Norway was a definite highlight (and challenge!) for this year, but we hope it will be well worth it as we continue our quest to support and expand the breed's gene pool on this continent.
As always, we wish everyone a safe and happy New Year. Let's hope 2011 brings continued health and good luck to all! In the meantime, here's a recap of 2010:
