OTCH RTCH-2 BRIARBROOKS ZIP-A-DEE-DO-DA UD RTX JS-O GS-O RV-O , “Zippy”, was my dog of many firsts. She was my first dog to<br />
title beyond novice in obedience, my first rally dog, my first agility dog, my first ASCA Nationals Finals winner, my first dog to finish atop the<br />
year-end ASCA merit standings. From her beginnings as a shy, fearful puppy she blossomed into a wonderful companion and partner, both<br />
in and out of the show ring. Zip started in the rally program during it’s first year of existence, and was one of the first dogs to earn a RTCH<br />
title. We competed in the first Rally Finals in Bakersfield, finishing second. As the next year started, I knew Zip was approaching the end of<br />
her show career and I was hoping she could finish on top. She did just that, ending the 2012-2013 year as the Rally Trial Champion Merit #1<br />
and the Rally Finals Champion. ASCA Nationals 2013 marked the end of Zip’s competitive show career. We showed a few times after that<br />
just for fun and to keep her active. She was an excellent partner, companion and huge piece of my heart for over 13 years. I lost Zip in <strong>July</strong><br />
2016 from complications of Vestibular Disease, but she lives on in my heart and memories.<br />
