Chadwick Scotch on the Rocks at Hudsonview, JW "Scotch"






Scotch at 17 months, just before finishing his JW title




Having dabbled here and there at AKC shows, Scotch was shown at the Progressive Toy Club
Specialty on the Westminster Kennel Club weekend.  He succeeded in winning Winner's Dog and
Best of Winners at 20 months, for a 5 pt major under Judge, Charlotte Patterson.






A promising youngster at 9 months


Laura Yassky, Scotch’s owner, was supposed to take a different puppy and as pretty as the other puppy was, my recommendation was that she should take Scotch.  At that time Scotch was marginally the better of the two and a few months older so I could assess him better.  A big part of showing dogs is attitude and Scotch had that from day one!  Now it was up to Laura to take this driven little ball of fur and train him to become a show dog.  As is always the case with novice handlers and green puppies, the road was a bit bumpy to start with but Laura persevered, used Agility and Rally training to her advantage, asked lots of questions, immersed herself and her dog for weekends in the old club, Cavaliers of the Northeast, shows and managed to seek out advice from the best conformation trainers.  It paid off!  Bravo to Laura and her first show dog, Scotch, on their success.
