CCAA Bitch of the Year 2011

2012-02-26T20:38:00.000-05:00

We are happy to announce that Glow has been awarded 2011 CCAA Bitch of the Year!!!

A great 2011

2012-02-26T20:37:00.000-05:00

2011 was a fantastic year for PrideNJoyz Cane Corso! Glow had another outstanding show year and welcomed two beautiful puppies into this world, Wally and Inky.

Aria brought us four additional fantastic puppies as well!

Glow just missed being #1 female again for 2011 but, we are just as happy with her ending her show career at #2 female and in the top 10 for 2011.

All the puppies are growing up and turning out to be some fine examples of the breed and we can't wait to see them in the show ring and in the rally ring.

Puppies are here!

2011-11-10T17:10:00.000-05:00

On October 31st, we welcome four beautiful puppies into this world from Aria and Saggio. 2 females and 2 males. They are all grey/grey brindle and gorgeous!

On November 9th, we welcomed two huge babies from Glow x Xerxes. One black brindle female and one formentino male!

Check back for pictures!

Glow and Xerxes litter for 2011

2011-09-20T19:38:00.000-04:00

It has been a while!

2011-09-20T19:36:00.000-04:00

Well, things have been so busy around here I see I have neglected the blog.

A few updates, Glow wrapped up her 2011 show career with a few Best of Breeds in Ohio. Vullo is growing very nicely but, having a puppy around is more work than fun. The good news is that eventually all the hard work will pay off, right?

Vullo went to puppy kindergarten at K9Jym in Colmar and oddly enough all the puppies in class were black. He had tons of fun and lots of new experiences. He also gets to go on a weekly doggie playdate with Glow and Sapphire to the DelPinto's to play with Lizzie and Tiny (English Mastiffs).

Both Vullo and Sapphire went to the Penn Vet Bloodmobile. Sapphire contributed her blood for dogs in need and Vullo was tested to see if he had the universal blood type to donate. Unfortunately, he did not have the correct blood type but, he was happy to meet at the people.

Now we are all relaxing around the house until our fabulous new kennel arrives in a few weeks.

The new addition!

2011-06-12T09:00:00.001-04:00

We are very thankful to Roberto Giannuli from the dell Antiqua Apulia kennel in Bari, Italy for trusting us with one of the offspring of Godzilla x Alma de Finibus Terrae!

Vullo (as we will call him) is exceeding our expectations in type and temperament. We could not be happier to add him to the PrideNJoyz family! We are very excited to see how he will mature.

We will add photos to our website as he grows. Thank you again, Roby!

A weekend off

2011-06-12T08:56:00.001-04:00

What a relief to have a weekend off of dog shows! Somehow, it never seems to be a "weekend off". Yesterday we drove out to Bangor, PA and tested Glow's herding abilities. As the instructor noted, "she has spunk". LOL

We are very proud of how Glow performed with no training on herding before the test. For us, this shows how well rounded our Corsos are, being able to pass the multitude of tests that they have.

Starting out in Rally

2011-06-12T08:51:00.000-04:00

We decided to try out Rally for the first time at one of the dog shows. Glow performed great however, the handler, me, missed one of the station signs so the test did not count. We will try again and hope this time, I do not miss one of the signs. LOL. In order to receive a Rally title a dog and handler must pass the test three times under three different judges. We are happy to work towards another title for Glow.

Glow's first show weekend out after her break was ok. She did get one Best of Opposite in Freehold, NJ.

Just because...

2011-05-20T22:25:00.019-04:00

An email I received today...

DOG FOR SALE

A guy is driving around the back woods of Montana
and he sees a sign in front of a broken down shanty-style house: 'Talking Dog For Sale ' He rings the bell and the owner appears and tells him the dog is in the backyard.

The guy goes into the backyard and sees a nice looking Labrador retriever sitting there.

'You talk?' he asks.

'Yep,' the Lab replies.

After the guy recovers from the shock of hearing a dog talk, he says 'So, what's your story?'

The Lab looks up and says, 'Well, I discovered that I could talk when I was pretty young..

I wanted to help the government, so I told the CIA.

In no time at all they had me jetting from country to country, sitting in rooms with spies and world leaders, because no one figured a dog would be eavesdropping.'

'I was one of their most valuable spies for eight years running...

But the jetting around really tired me out, and I knew I wasn't getting any younger so I decided to settle down. I signed up for a job at the airport to do some undercover security, wandering near suspicious characters and listening in. I uncovered some incredible dealings and was awarded a batch of medals.' 'I got married, had a mess of puppies, and now I'm just retired.'

The guy is amazed. He goes back in and asks the owner what he wants for the dog.

'Ten dollars,' the guy says.

'Ten dollars? This dog is amazing! Why on earth are you selling him so cheap?'

'Because he's a liar. He never did any of that shit.

New website is up and running and the old one is history!

A little relief at home and a Group 4

2011-04-19T13:01:00.000-04:00

After a few days relief from the trip to California, Glow attended a one day show in Gettysburg, PA. Once again she was awarded Best of Breed! She was also awarded a Group 4 Placement in the Working Group!

Now for some rest before the last show weekend of the year for Glow.

Heading down to Perry, GA for the CCAA Regional and National shows!

2011-04-19T12:53:00.001-04:00

For Glow's last round of dog shows before hopefully bringing some beautiful, healthy puppies into this world, she took a trip with Ashley to Perry, GA. It was a difficult decision but, we always know that Glow is in the best hands with Ashley.

Well, the Glow and Ashley team didn't disappoint!

Thursday - AKC show Glow gets Best of Opposite against 37 Cane Corso entered!
Friday - CCAA Regional show Glow takes the Breed! Up against 47 Cane Corso entered and around 15 other champions!
Saturday - CCAA National show and Glow takes Best of Opposite again (up against 47 Cane Corso entered)!!!!

So for a hopefully pregnant female and a handler who only showed two Corso that weekend, Ashley brought home 2 Winners Bitch with the other Corso, 2 Best of Opposite and 1 Best of Breed. She is an excellent handler!

The trophy, ribbons and plaques are beautiful! Special thank you to CCAA for presenting such nice awards!

A few shows in York, PA

2011-04-19T12:44:00.002-04:00

2011-03-13T21:53:00.001-04:00

My apologies for the delay in posting.

We have decided on a stud for Glow and as soon as we recieved the official results from PennHIP, we will annouce the stud officially on the website. We are very excited about this breeding! The stud is a beautiful black male with nice bone and a solid temperament.

In show news, January has been a great month. On short notice, we decided to send Glow down to Brooksville, FL. Ashley and Glow performed wonderfully, as usual. Glow came home with 4 Best of Breeds, 3 Best of Opposite and 2 Select. Due to poor weather conditions, one of the show days was cancelled. Glow had a great time at a boar farm with Ashley while they were down in Florida.

Headed to CA for the AKC/Eukanuba dog show

2011-03-13T21:50:00.001-04:00

A big thank you to Frontier Airlines for helping Glow arrive safely in California. Glow arrived in California with a bang! Her first show after landing late on Wednesday night and she won Best of Breed on Thursday defeating 10 champions and 14 Cane Corso total! She went on to the Working Group where the judge pulled her out of the group for the final cut! We are very proud of her even though she didn't make the final 4, making the cut in a group with such amazing examples of the working group is definitely an accomplishment. :D

At Thursday's show, Glow was awarded Select.

Unfortunately, we did not bring home the Best of Breed for the AKC/Eukanuba show but, to win a Best of Breed and make the cut for group one day is incredible! We were happy to have been invited and been able to attend. It was a wonderful event.

04/24/2009 - Glow attended the CCAA National Dog Show weekend. The show was fantastic albeit hot. Glow was two weeks shy of 18 months so she was not old enough to test for the TEC1. :( However, we enjoyed watching the other dogs. Glow took first place in her class in three of five shows during the weekend. She also took second place in one show and a Reserve Winners. We want to thank Shauna Molzahn for handling Glow for most of the weekend. We are looking forward to next year's Nationals.
