Autumn was out with professional handlers Brian and Mary Clegg. In her very first show (ever) she was Winner Bitch/Best of Opposite Sex, from the 9-12 puppy bitch class, for two points. This win was at the St Croix shows in MN on August 24, 2002. She then followed that up with a 4 point Major Reserve win the day after the Ft Detroit Golden Retriever Specialty Show. She won her large puppy class at the Ft Detroit Specialty. Not bad for a 9-12 pup!

Autumn made sure she lived up to her name by taking 9 points in one month's time in the "autumn" of 2003. Not yet two years of age she went BOW for her first major under judge Betty Ann Stenmark at Columbus, OH shows Nov 2003. She then took a break from shows until late spring 2004. After what seemed an eternity and many, many major reserves Autumn finished her Championship by going BOW/BOS under judge Dorothy Macdonald at the Middleburg shows on Oct 22, 2004. Apparently she only likes to win in the AUTUMN!

A huge thank you to Brian and Mary Clegg for believing in our girl and putting those first two points on her from the puppy class. And at her very first show! Autumn was owner/breeder handled to the remaining 13 points.

Autumn was bred to Ch Tempo's Easy Rider in October 2005. Her litter will arrive December 21st, 2005. On the Winter Solstice--how very fitting. Autumn's mother is our girl "Winter". Autumn has since been spayed and has moved into her retirement home in Ellicott City, MD. She is the well-loved companion of the Judy family and has enjoyed her place as the ONLY dog in the family!
