Rizzo |

Grand Ch, Dual Ch (F) Ourgang Dirty Bang – 19/8/17

Rizzo, Rizzola, La La, La La Boom, Boomsie. She was a fiery one from the get go, I was debating between her and her sister Darcii – Darcii is the type I would normally keep but I wanted to do something different and I knew with Rizz’s temperament she would not have fitted into the household that Darcii was sent to so Rizz stayed.

She has been a challenge, she doesn’t cope with people with high pitched voices so it took me a while to work that out so we desensitized that. Then she doesn’t like other dogs so we worked on that and now she tolerates well to the point we now do Flyball with racing and excitement without chaos. She loves to touch and cuddle and generally be a cloak or something you wear .. up close … very very close … you don’t need to breathe do you?

Showing was something she just wasn’t interested in so we had to work on that and now she is happy to show, not the showdog her mother is but she is consistent. She titled fairly easily at 13 months. She has won over 50 Class in Groups, Multi Runner Up in Groups, Multi Best in Groups and Multi Class in Shows. We hope to continue showing her to her Grand Champion title before she will retire from the showring – around 100 to go so hopefully she will achieve this this year.

Flyball – not quite the natural her mum is, she has worked hard and has had her first competition – she is ok with the actual racing but needs more work on her confidence in the flyball ring. More work needed on focus for her and then I think she will be a good racing dog – this will be her main focus for 2023 and so far she is doing well

Breeding wise she has had her first litter for us with Litter 21 – a mating back to her grandfather Multi Ch Angelic Staff Bang Bang Boogie – Denmark. This resulted in Rocky, Janet & Raffy. Her second and last litter was Litter 26 – was after a couple of misses and reabsorptions, this litter resulted in Clancy, Winston and Muriel. This was her final litter and she is now desexed and showing in Neuter.
