This is 14 August and Mary and Dagger just got back from a stressful camping vacation with the grandchildren and caught up with her mail.  She has an add coming out in the Doberman Magazine and I have a copy and will put it up.  The finish picture I had put on was not the greatest and the add looks great. 
This is 11 August and I am still trying to get things on the web site.  There seems to be a block on AOL and the server cannot get in to do anything.  We had a no luck weekend in Harrisburg and will have to pull back and re-check the situation.  We did have some luck to see Willie being shown and he looks so good and Michelle has him in great condition.  I took a snapshot between classes and he looks great.  Jake came and looks better but will need more time to straighten out.  Just got a call from the server and she said she got things in order so we will see if it works.    Will keep you informed. 
This is 26 July and I just got a snap shot Mary took when Dagger finished at Echo Hills last month.  We showed Fever at the Bloomsburg shows this weekend.  She took her class on Friday but Roxann won with her red bitch.  Fever took Reserve today and it is our show on Sunday and we do not show.  We are entered in Harrisburg in two weeks and will try to get a report on then if not before.  Sue Ann got her CDX on Friday and a first place and I will try to get a picture when I see Mike. 
June 30 and a good weekend.  Not all good but Fever took WB on Saturday and Colleen's dog took WD on Sunday.   When bitches went in Sunday the rain started and it was all under the tent -- very small area and close quarters -- and the judging was difficult and the dogs were not happy.  Jake looked good and should have done better but another show.  Dagger was a move - up and looked great and Mary did a great job but the specials and handlers were what the judge liked. 
SUPER CONGRATULATIONS to Sue Ann Lesser DVM.  She and Mueller's Bootleg V Triadel WAC, CD, CGC, RN, RA "Querva" attended and showed at the Canine Freestyle Federation Trial in Chattanooga TN on 4/28/2008.  She took 2nd place in Level IIB with score of 67/100 over all the super show breeds in competition   She got her title in first try.  We watched a video of Sue Ann practicing and what a great routine SO GREAT. 
CONGRATULATIONS to Sue Ann Lesser DVM -- as she finished he CD on Mueller's Bootleg V Triadel WAC, CGC, RN, RA "Querva" at the Doberman Pinscher Club of Tappan Zee on 10/28/2007 in Novice B.  She took 2nd place W/194 under Phyllis Broderick. 
GOOD NEWS Dagger took BOW for two points and a NEW CHAMPION.  This is Triadel's champion number 52.  Mary is jumping over the moon and has him entered in some more shows so will move him up to breed.  I will get the picture on in a couple weeks when I see them at Bushy Run. 
Another weekend of Reserve's.  Weather was very hot but really no problems but the judges did not like what we had for some reason.  Not sure what the problem was as they looked good but we need to see if they need to grow up a little.  To big for the puppy classes and not big enough for the open.  We are entered in a couple weeks and do some more calculations.  Good news as we did five holter tests last week and they all came back clear.  Still young but a good base with the litter and Cokey who is five.  They tell us it will get cooler so we can get outside.  More later. 
Here it is June 1 and the weather has been so great I have been trying to get some of the trimming and outside work done -- it never ends.  Shirley went to Cincinnati and had a good time and Dagger won two points one day and now only needs a single to finish.  Sometimes that last single takes for ever but Vicki really wants to finish him so we are hoping soon.  Fever looked good and showed great but Vicki had other bitches to go in winners and Shirley was not able to run so no one to go in winners with her.  They had a good time and Teri took Wally so he had a chance to be at a show situation too.  Hope to go to shows this weekend, but there is a very small entry.  Do not know how they are going to finish Dobermans with small entries?
This is 20 May and I am just getting things on.  Shirley had Fever to Columbus but did not do anything as the judges were not great and Vicki won winners dog every day and then also with a puppy bitch.  Fever looked good at the Carroll KC shows but Colleen won with Jake and then went right in on Fever and the judge was spreading it around and the handlers got their piece.  Shirley is going to Cincinnati for the weekend and we hope Vicki can finish Dagger -- only needs three singles -- and it would be good to get a win with Fever but she still needs to mature and needs a few pounds.  Hope for some wins and will let you know next week. 
Above is the picture of Triadel's Aftermath (Jake)  winning at the Sunday show at Carroll Kennel Club Sunday show and below is the win at the Monday show. He was stressed and would not bate but did a great job.  He should be so much better when he gets in the grove and shows like he is happy.  
Friday 11 April and we were at the show yesterday and Claudia brought Jake there for us to look at and get a check from Colleen.  We all thought he looked very nice and should be in the ring a few times as he should beat many of the boys we see in the ring now.  It has taken him quite a while to settle down but he was quite normal at the show ringside for the full time and a lot of people saw him.  We were not entered but Colleen's boy took his class but not the purple. 
March 30 and GOOD NEWS again today.  Dagger went BOW again today for another point.  He is over half way with both majors.  Mary is very happy and is looking forward to the next shows and hoping for him to keep up the good work.  Vicki is doing a great job.  Shirley and Colleen plan to show this weekend but Colleen has been in bed most of the week and not sure of a cure. It seems to be going around and much worse this year than the doctors can remember.  
GOOD NEWS and the picture came today.  Dagger took BOW for another point and we hope he will win tomorrow but we never know.  I will post what ever happens tomorrow.  I will also put on the full picture of Fever winning at Marietta Ohio a couple weeks ago. 
Sunday 16 March and another week and some good news.  Dagger was at Louisville and went Reserve two days and took his second Major today.  They had many people tell them what a great dog and Mary was so proud and happy that he has both majors and is almost half way to his championship.  No pictures yet but we may get one for Fever from last week and will put it on when it comes.  Also Colleen finished her Toy Fox with a third major and was very happy.  We did place Freedom on probation and she is reporting doing great.  We miss her but just one less in the pack is a help.  Still on the cold side and snow around in places and hoping but not seeing Spring. 
Saturday 8 March.  Good news today --  they took winners dog and winners bitch today.  They have had bad weather at the show and all over the east but a reserve on Thursday and Dagger just came today and he and Fever both won.  Not sure what they will do tomorrow but will let you know more when they show.  We hope the weather will settle some for the trip home tomorrow. 
It has been a snowy cold winter so far and not a great outlook.  The sun says spring is coming but still is not in charge.  Fever is entered in some shows, but not sure what the weather will be like.  Below is a picture of Wally.  Teri took it in the bright sun with snow for a background and he was black -- auto does strange things with bright background -- so we tried to make him look red and did a bad job.  He is looking nice and they were just one year old this week.  He needs to mature more and Teri is really working on him.  She took a handling workshop last weekend with Mary and Dagger, but she was only an observer but Mary did participate.  We have not taken pictures but we are trying to place their sister Freedom.  She is great but too many dogs and we do want to breed Tommy. 
"Wally" Triadel's Red Letter Day
This is 13 January and we got to see Dagger and Mary gave us a picture of his Major win in Cleveland last month.  Picture not great for all the rush rush reasons at big shows. but he showed great and was a happy winner.  He showed last weekend and took two reserves and should have won but some of the judging was not the best.  No shows for at least a few weeks.  Winter shows are difficult and weather so unpredictable we are waiting for better conditions in general.  Will try to keep things up to date. 
MERRY CHRISTMAS   AND  HAPPY NEW YEAR

We sent cards to a lot of the friends with puppies etc but not to all the people that frequent the website.  We have not taken many pictures lately and so not much new but I did have a snapshot of Wally taken this summer.  He is changing a lot and looking better all the time as Teri keeps working on getting him muscled up.  Hoping everyone has a great HOLIDAY SEASON. 

It does not seem like a month since I have talked to everyone but it is 20 December.  We have not been doing much but keeping the snow under control and the dogs as well as they do not like the crusty -- icy conditions at all.  We did have BIG NEWS as most of you should know Dagger took WD/BOW for three points at Cleveland.  His first points and a major.  Mary and Denny were ecstatic and everyone congratulated them as he looked so super and really asked for it.  They only went for the two days and Sunday was a bad snow storm and the judging was different than any of the other three days.  He is off to a great start. 
This is 20 November and shows are over for the year.  We just got back from Columbus shows and came home through a snow storm on 80 and had 8 inches on our hill when we arrived.  Trees across the road and power out but home safe and we will get back to normal one of these days.  Did nothing at Columbus but placed every day and Dagger took a first two of the days and they looked great and Colleen did a great job.  Judging was of question -- some very bad -- but another show.  The girls need to grow up but Dagger just needs a judge who will look at puppies.  On to the Holidays and next year. 
This is November 8 and I have a few minutes to put on the pictures of Dagger at his Host Club Shows at Fitchburg.  We saw Mary and Dagger last weekend at our show weekend and he showed the two days at the Back Mt. shows and took his class both days but the judging was something else for the two shows.  I am trying to get things ready for winter and may get the National pictures on soon. 
Just time to get the wins for Mueller's Bootleg V Triadel WAC, CD, CGC, RN and RA on for Sue Ann.  You can see there is a CD there since the last post.  The picture below is from the National in Fitchburg and last week at Tappan Zee she got the third leg with a 194 and Second Place to finish her CD.  That was her second title within a month and is headed for more soon.  This is our clubs show weekend so will try to get some of our National pictures and news on next week. 

Hi everyone it is 19 October and after a reprimand from Sue Ann I will get some of her wins at the Host Club shows in Fitchburg on the site.  She was so happy with Querva’s performance and how – for the most part – she kept her cool and really did much better than she had hoped.  She keeps impressing the fact that she is such a pleasure to work with and a great dog.  Mueller’s Bootleg V Triadel WAC, CGC, RN, RA “Querva” is just over two and is by Hunter out of Ch Triadel’s Vanilla Bean.  She got her WAC at 18 months under Ray Carlisle, Her RN with scores all over 95 and RA – two legs at Nationals one perfect 100 and a 98 under renowned judges Celeste Meade and Kristin Hurwitz.  Pictures from Danbury and Pilgrim below and from the National later.
