Pride-N-Joy's Finest Crystal

Crystal at 15 months.

Crystal's first victories at MADOC agility trial Dec. 13, 2003 in Autaugaville near Montgomery, AL with Hannah, age 12, as her junior handler.  This was her first leg towards NA (Novice Agility) and NAJ (Novice Agility Jumpers with weaves) titles.  She took first place in NAJ and third place in NA 16" division.

Hannah's key to victory as a junior handler is perseverance.  Hannah believes in Crystal and does not give up on her during difficult moments.

Hannah and Crystal's victories at MADOC agility trial March 5, 2004 in Autaugaville, AL.  This was her second leg towards NA (Novice Agility) and NAJ (Novice Agility Jumpers with weaves) titles.   Hannah and Crystal took first place in NAJ and first place in NA 16" division.  (Joanne and Blaze had a rough day at that same competition.  They did not even have a qualifying run that day.  But they'll be back!!).

This was a BIG day for Hannah and Crystal!  They are the first ones in the Brannon household to earn an agility title.  Hannah and Crystal now have a Novice A Standard Course Title.  This means that they move up to the next division.  They will be competing in the Open Class now.  Way to go, girls!

Crystal "awards" Hannah for being such a precious friend and master!
