Hi, group.
It is that time of year again to start up our Special Awards list for 2013. For those new to this, each year individuals sponsor a special award at the champs to honor or in memory of our canines or for a special person. The cost is $25 per award and the winners take home a commemorative jump bar with the award name on the bar! These were so beautiful last year and it was so great to take home a bar for winning the award, plus knowing that the award being offered meant so much to the one sponsoring it.
We will be starting up our 2013 Special Awards list now and let us know if you have an award you wish to sponsor. Some types of awards are like "Highest Scoring Australian Shepherd, In memory of Fluffy".
The awards must be able to be "quantified" ie.... it must come from scores earned...... it is very tough to give out an award such as "The Aussie with the most white on them"...... the winning results must come from the scores earned at the championships. All scores for these awards are tallied from the first six rounds of Regular, unless otherwise specified. Sometimes we get awards such as "Fastest dog in Round 6".... or "Highest cumulative Weavers scores from Pre-trial runs".... and those are okay also.
Good luck to everyone!!

Looking over the list brought a combination of smiles and tears, as so many of the wonderful dogs I met when the Boyz and I started our agility careers have since crossed the Rainbow Bridge. Would that they could live forever!
Please let me know how much to send for the Oldest Qualifying Dog massage. Which actually is in memory of NATCH Dillon and in honor of VersNATCH Bravo. Bravo says "there will be no "in memory" of me yet. Although I'm almost 14-1/2 and am battling kidney failure and rear-end degeneration, my mind is still bright and I am feeling great!"

Please add highest scoring veteran female cocker spaniel.
And
Highest scoring veteran male cocker spaniel.

Maybe next year for the Beagle.
I'll try a few other odd (agility) breeds if you have any of the following in Champs I'd switch for this year to one of these as highest scoring.
Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier
Basset Hound
Bloodhound
Otter hound
Foxhound
And if none of those, I'll just do highest scoring from New Jersey.
I'll paypal $25 to you.

I would like to sponsor high scoring black retriever in memory of Tyler.

Sharon--last year you had jump bar sponsorship. Are you going to do that again this year? It would be great to be able to take that home as a memory of this years champs.
-
What address do we send the PayPal payments to? I don't want to be behind but I can't find it. All I see are people posting that they will do it. Thank you so much!

I'm not sure about two of the awards. There is one for HIT All American dog, and one for Mixed Breed dog. Is there a difference in the two? I've always called my mixed breed "All American" :)

Some people feel strongly one way or the other. Their choice. And many others, like you or me, see them as the same thing. Bottom line, we support all dogs and the ways in which people want them listed!

I am sorry, but it is already too late. We posted several times and begged for more sponsorship, but alas we got little response.

Thanks Sharon. I understand. I really need to get better at navigating the Forum. My fault.

That is on my wish list for everyone!!! I post, but not everyone has made the transition from Yahoo to forum!!

And you do a great job. Thanks for everything.

Would Henley be able to qualify for "Highest Scoring Dog from Texas"? I rescued him from Texas but he now lives in Illinois...just kidding !! This will be my/our first Champs and excited to be able to go !!!
-
I'm sponsoring that category and since you asked - I say Yes. The dog is from Texas - even if you're not :=) But as the saying goes "I'm not from Texas, but I got here as fast as I could" :=)

Sharon,
Will the special awards work the same way for South Jordan?
Will it be a while before I can sponser a Special Award?
I'm just a little excited for next year, it will be my first Champs!! :D

Yes, the special awards will work the same way. We need to start the sponsorships earlier, as they are totally awesome to sponsor, to give out and to win!! They are very special.
We had a very low number of sponsorships this year, about half of normal, so we need to start now to give those 2014 exhibitors something extra to be running for!!

One question- I sponsored an award for a certain breed in memory of a friend's dog and it ended up that there were no dogs of that breed entered. Will that award carry over to next year or should I sponsor it again next year?
Linda Anderson

Will you post who won each award?

Summer & I would like to thank the sponsors of the following special awards:
Chris Nelson, for the Highest Scoring Male Handler award.
Tom & Pat Moloney-Harmon, for sponsoring the Highest Scoring Sable Sheltie award. Of course, it's awesome to earn an award sponsored by such wonderful friends as you, but it is even more special to earn an award dedicated to Maddie. I hope we honored her with our performance.
Sharon Nelson, for sponsoring the Lucky Award. I am humbled and honored that something in the partnership between Summer & I that reminds you of the special relationship you shared with Lucky. It is also a tremendous privilege to share this award with two other incredible teams, Casey & Cathie Cage and Jet & Deb Baracco.
Thank you!
-
Just a shout out to Ronni Russell for sponsoring the High Scoring Terrier in honor of Scooter and Sage. Schatzi and I are honored to have this bar. Thanks Ronni!!! Sam Lietz & Schatzi (Rat Terrier). (We came in 2nd in Starter Stakes (small dogs)).
-
A very big Roo-Roo to Ed and Dino for sponsoring "Highest Scoring Dog from New Jersey". We know you were disappointed that there was not a beagle to sponsor this year, but tell Dino that Druid, his former classmate from Beginner agility class so many years ago, earned that award. We will always look at that special bar and remember a wonderful 2013 Champs as well as both of you.
Pat & Carole Daggett
