From Maria Marshall:
Meg earned her first major agility title on July 24, 2011 at the UDAC CPE trial held at Lake Wohlford Canine Ranch. She needed just one Standard run to complete her title that weekend, and she waited until Sunday to earn the qualifying run, so that she and Noni (and Kim D) could CATCH on the same day. Maria and Meg shown with Judge Lisa Potts.
And who says dogs don't care about ribbons?!?! On Meg's victory lap, she declined to continue until her mom showed her what the funny blue and white thing was. One sniff, however, was all it took to get moving again.
