Gatsby is 14 months

9 years ago

I want to thank everyone for your advice when we started our journey a year ago. Some of you might remember that this is our first dog. We expected it to be a lot of work and it was. Lots of classes and lots of friends sure helped us along the way.

Gatsby is now 14 months old and has accomplished a lot!

He has his Oscar and Golden Globe (His real name is Leonardo DiCaprio)

He did have a cameo appearance in an AKC video on the breed

He has his AKC Canine Good Citizen (at 7 months!) and STAR puppy

He won Best in Show Novice puppy and has his National and International Senior Puppy Championships.(IABCA)

He loves agility and if his handler improves (me)- he will be dynamite on the course!

He is also working on Rally-O and hopes to try his hand in herding downstream.

He is full size but will gain more muscle and weight over the next 2 years

Thanks!

Herding Snow! 14 months

Mine! 12 months

Oh Dear - a deer! 10 months

Oscar and Best in show 5 months Better hide from the paparazzi!

Mom showing Gatsby at Nationals - 13 months

Wow, he has grown up so beautifully. What a cutie! He looks so happy. Those are great pictures and he is a real credit to his breed. You did great!!! I think he is the first Berger Picard I have ever seen that wasn't in a book! He is a handsome dude!

He's so handsome! I can't get over how grown up he is now!!! Glad he's doing well.

How are you doing? We had lunch today in the Bloomingdale's restaurant that we'd eaten in with you. :) It was so cold here today, we drove out to that mall to walk around (indoors!) with my visiting parents. The food was as yummy as it was when we'd eaten there with you, and I thought of you when we were seated.

Hope all is well with you, a2geminiDH, and your adorable Gatsby!
