Finnegan Finishes the Year Strong
Finnegan had a whirlwind December! After receiving his certificate stating he earned his Grand Champion Bronze a few months prior, he packed up his show lead to head out on the open road with his people.
He started it out with Best of breed at the OWNC supported entry
After a wonderful weekend at the supported entry, Finnegan traveled East onto Orlando to the AKC National Championship (Royal Canin) where he was awarded Select Dog out of a beautiful line up of many of the top Newfs in the country. It was a wonderful experience showing in such a large venue with over 5000 dogs, we are super proud of how well he handled himself and very grateful to his handler Michael Brantley for being one of his best buddies and a steady captain at the helm.

Certification
The Old West Newfoundland Club has been granted permission to hold this Draft Test by the Working Dog Committee of the Newfoundland Club of America in accordance with the Draft Test Regulations updated in 2019.
The NCA Draft Test is a series of exercises designed to develop and demonstrate the natural abilities of purebred Newfoundland Dogs. The dogs must be willing to work with their handlers and the exercises must be accomplished efficiently. The goal of each handler is to maintain control while encouraging his dog’s natural independence; together, they demonstrate teamwork. The Newfoundland has historically functioned as a draft dog in various capacities, and the performance of these exercises is intended to demonstrate skills.
