Stinger was born on March 10, 2006 and still is our baby boy.  There is no way to perfectly describe Stinger besides he is an old soul.  He is sweet, caring, and relaxed with a witty attitude everyone loves.  He is a pretty boy, but we believe it's just his confidence shining through.  He has done well with confirmation and is giving obedience a shot, but we are always exploring new adventures to experience with Stinger.

Stinger is a Grand Champion in UKC and is AKC pointed.  He is owned and handled by Katie Kimmerling.  Stinger also received his Canine Good Citizen title, CGC, on June 28, 2009.  We are working on obtaining his Therapy Dogs International title, TDI, so Stinger can go into nursing homes and warm the hearts of others.

Stinger has been working on obedience with Katie.  At the 4-H Genesee County Fair on August 21, 2009, Stinger and Katie took first place in Sub-Novice A class.  Stinger has done well with learning how to sit on command and everyday is a new learning experience for them both.  Also at the 4-H Genesee County Fair on August 21, 2009, Stinger and Katie took first place in Open Handling Senior 15 and over.
