We are currently training and showing a number of young dogs from our kennel, as part of our breeding and training programs. As for some of the show and trial accomplishments of our dogs.....

In Boston today, Laney (Summit Gemini's Abbey Road), handled by Rindi Gaudet, won Best of Opposite Sex, a Four-point major win, and her first points.

At Ocala, on November 16, 17 and 18 (three days in a row!!!), True (Ch Gemini's Chants to Xcel) won Best of Breed, beating approximately 59 other goldens each day! On Friday he placed Group IV, and on Saturday he placed Group I in the Sporting Group, only losing to a poodle for Best In Show that day. Owner Kathy Cudak is planning on taking True to Westminster in February.

On November 2, Skye got her Champion, handled by Sherri Samel Hurst, in Tulsa, OK. We are very proud of this beautiful daughter of Dallas and Nasdaq, who will be bred to Sherri's "Brighton" next week, and then retire to momhood here in Florida.

6-09-07, Charmer got his first major in Virginia over MemorialDay weekend.
Our latest star in the show ring is "Charmer" (Gemini's Lucky Charm), who in March, April and May, 2007 has already taken nine points as a 14 month old puppy. Now he needs his majors to finish his championship. We are trying for his major wins in Hampton, VA over the Memorial Day weekend, when he will continue to be handled by Rindi Gaudet and Correy.

Recently, Gemini's Chants To Xcel (True) became the first-ever Gemini dog to go Group I. "One large step" for our Kennel. Congrats to Kathy Cudak for her True dedication. 8 SDHF Points!!

In older news, on Saturday August 19, 2006, Gemini's X-Static (Dylan) won an exciting Best of Breed in Tampa.
Gemini's Rockets Red Glare (Spark) went Best of Opposite Sex (to True) from Puppy 9 to 12 month Bitches.
The next day we were all even more thrilled as Gemini's Chants to Xcel (True) went Best of Breed and then went on to a Sporting Group II win, while at the very same time, Dylan went Reserve Winners Dog (to True) and Gemini's Fireworks in Flight (Roman) won his Puppy 9 to 12 months Dog Class.
We have never won this many ribbons at one show, nor Xcelled so well in the doing!
True also took a WD/BOW/BOB over 4 Specials for his first Major (4 points) in the previous show (all from the 12-18 month Class) at the age of 17 months. He now has 3 SDHF points and is the first Gemini dog to place in Group competition. NOTE: Our Houston and Brittany are Grandparents to all four of the above dogs; our Dallas is the mother of Dylan and True, and Debra Busch's Whiskey is the mother of Spark and Roman.

Two of our female puppies, Fallchase Gemini's High Stakes (Keno) and Gemini's Only a Paper Moon (Skye) are being shown around the State this Summer. Skye won a four-point Major at the Houston Texas Specialty from the Bred-By Class, on July 22, 2006.



Ch Tejas Caribbean Direct Flight CDX RN NA NAJ WC CGC (Houston) got his WC title in June, 2006, which qualifies him for the Versatility Excellent Award from the Golden Retriever Club of America. We are now training with him to get his Utility Dog (UD) and Junior Hunter (JH) titles.
"In older news": Dallas cleaned up at the Golden Retriever National Specialty in Orlando, in October, 2002. She was first in both Agility Trials, earning two legs on her Novice Agility title, and, in Conformation, won Winners Bitch, over 217 competing bitches. We were thrilled with what was a "once in a lifetime" win. Almost as an anti-climax, Dallas won her Champion later in that year. (She is the mother of Dylan and True.)
