Uko Akpanuko Daily Herald The Prince Albert Kennel and Obedience Club celebrates its centennial anniversary with a three day dog show that opened on Tuesday. The club is hosting different breeds of dogs who are competing in different categories with participants coming from across Saskatchewan.
Leanne Brooks has been a member of the club for about 30 years and is also competing in this year’s event with three Rottweiler dais. She said the club has been great. ”I was introduced to the Club when I got my first Rottweiler (and) they welcomed me with open arms,” Brooks said.
“I got registered in the puppy class and also did some obedience with her and from there I got other (dogs). The Club has showed me how to improve on my breed’s standards and helped me to be a proper breeder and member.” For this year’s show Leanne registered with three Rottweilers: Tim, who is sitting on 8-10 points and a Canadian Champion, Timmy and Lily.
All three are going for the Canadian Championship. “For the show that we entered today my 11 month old, Tim took the breed(puppy breed) and the sister, Timmy, was picked for the female breed,” Brooks said. “The competition has been great, it has been fierce and the prizes usually includes ribbons, beautiful rosettes, medallions or sponsorships.
