Tommy didn't get out much as a young puppy as I was moving to NC. He quick made up for time. Tommy also went Best of Breed from the 12-18 month class over specials, second in both sweeps and regular 9-12 month dog class at the ISCA 99 National. He finished very easily with limited showing! Tommy had his first weekend in Canada - 4 WD 3 BW 2 BB and a GROUP First!! Tommy's glad to be back in Canada and what a welcome 4 group firsts and a BIS!!! In 2001 Tommy is currently the #1 Irish and #4 Sporting Dog in Canada2001, he was also in the top 20 in the US! He has the lay-on and lay-back that is being lost in the breed in North America. For 2002 he finished #1 Sporting, #3 All Breeds - as always breeder/owner/handled! None of Tommy's accomplishments could have happened without the support of his other owners William and Tylene Walker
Chasing Cars lyrics
The above lyrics encapsulate Tommy's and my relationship but tears me up as I laid with him on the floor when I had to let him go.......frequently we would lay in bed and just forget the world (I'd whisper in his ear and we'd share secrets under the covers spppspppsppp are you ready for the day,,,,maybe squirrels' and birds are all around today.....we always had Tommy time under the covers on show days while Rider and Windy were sleeping. In his final few years he'd go to bed as soon as I opened the bedroom door....lay across all of the pillows and I would come in and shift him just slightly..... oh TT man if I could just lay with you one more time to forget the world..........
