Ch Rattitats Need for Speed
AKA "Scrappy" has been a joy to show. We are lucky that Valerie in trusted us with this wonderful Rat Terrier. Scrappy is OFA clear on Hips rated as good, Elbows as normal, Patella normal, Cardiac normal, and due to her parents tests she is not a carrier for PPL. She has been on the top 10 list twice with limited showing due to large entries were we live. She has taken Group 1, 2, and 3 on several shows. Unfortunately we have limited showing in Colorado.

NEWS FLASH SCRAPPY TAKES CH CLASS AND IS VERY CLOSE TO FINISHING HER GRAND CH. THANKS EVERYONE FOR THE HELP.

Enlarge photo 1 Scrappy takes another Best of Breed and Group 3, she has been a joy to show and I thank the Judges for making it a great day. Scrappy has been such a joy to show and thinks she owns the ring when she is in it.
Enlarge photo 2 Scrappy takes Best of Breed and went on to a Group 1. This was a great day for me and I thank the judge for making this one of the best.
Enlarge photo 3 A side view on the same day "Buzzy" showing off the pro he is and Scrappy was not in her best stack that is for sure. But it was great getting pictures of both of them together. Scrappy was just a day or two over 6 months.
Enlarge photo 4 Scrappy on the table as she is being checked over by the Judge, as you can see she is not bothered by it a bit.
Enlarge photo 5 Scrappy taking a nap waiting to go into the group ring after taking Best of Breed in the Rat Terrier Ring. That is hard to do in Colorado as we have very nice dogs out here and large classes.
Enlarge photo 6 At the end of a long show weekend just kicking back and taking easy, in the easy chair. This is how she sits in this chair on her own andit is so funny.
Enlarge photo 7 Scrappy under a year old watching the boat. She loves to be on the boat and jumps off for her ball.
Enlarge photo 8 Scrappy when we first got her she was only around 10 weeks old learning the show table. Sorry this is out of order still learning the image event web page.
Enlarge photo 9 Scrappy would take on anything from a very young age she even loved trying out the agility equipment.
Enlarge photo 10 Scrappy sitting and getting love from dad. This picture was so funny because she just wrapped her paws around dads drink all on her own. Couldn't pass up the photo op.
Enlarge photo 11 Scrappy hanging out with dad and her new sister Sabo.
Enlarge photo 12 We trained Scrappy to be able to detect narcotics. I always felt little dogs could get into small spaces better then by big K9 Yogi. Scappy was a quick study. She is indicating here an odor of narcotics by scratching on the cabnet.
Enlarge photo 13 Scrappy just over 6 months hanging out in the kitchen.
Enlarge photo 14 Again Scrappy during training for narcotic detection.
Enlarge photo 15 Scrappy around 12 weeks old hanging out on the bed begging that we got back to bed and snuggle in.
Enlarge photo 16 Scappy chewing a bone that our son was holding for her just hanging out. I thought it would make for a cute picture.
Enlarge photo 17 My daughter showing Scrappy when Scrappy was still a puppy and my daughter wasn't very old either.
Enlarge photo 18 Stephanie takes best Jr. Handler with Scrappy it was her first one and she was very happy.
Enlarge photo 19 Our daughter showing Scrappy for Best Jr. Handler in her age group.
Enlarge photo 20 Valerie came out for Scrappy's first show with her dad "Buzzy". We are very fortunate to have Valerie in our lives. How many breeders would come and support your first show with a Rat Terrier and have to fly to do it!! Scrappy was just old enough to show that day.
Enlarge photo 21 Scrappy makes it to Group.
Enlarge photo 22 Scrappy coming to a stop trying to walking into her stack. I just love that Scrappy is a self stacker I don't have to do much but ask her to step left or right. What a smart girl.
