GCH CoolWater’s The Tide Is High – “Jesse”

Thank you to Judge Robert D. Ennis for this honor.
GCH CoolWater’s The Tide Is High- “Jesse”
We had a very nice surprise this weekend. Jesse, who has been taking some time off from showing, came back out this weekend in preparation for her attendance at the Eukanuba shows at the end of the year.
This weekend, each day she was entered, she took Best Opposite Sex to the #1 Chessie in the country. The entries averaged to about 17-18 Chesapeakes each day – as such these placements were nice wins for her.
She received many compliments both from judges and other Chesapeake breeders and we couldn’t be prouder.

It’s been awhile since Jesse has been out on the show circuit. She took several months off and just stepped back into the ring mid-February. Unfortunately, this meant she missed Eukanuba at the end of 2012 and Westminster in early February (2013). Taking the time off, affected her overall ranking for 2012. Regardless, we’re very proud of how she ended the year – Jesse was the #11 Chesapeake (breed points) for 2012. This is very good considering she wasn’t shown for several months.
So, onto 2013..
Jesse’s first weekend out in 2013 didn’t disappoint. Saturday, Jesse took Best of Breed over 12 other Chesapeakes under judge Marianne Reder. On Sunday, she took Best Opposite Sex. The judge was extremely complimentary to Jesse and couldn’t say enough nice things about her. Of course, we love judges who love our dogs. 🙂
It was a great weekend in Fletcher, NC. Jesse took Best of Breed on Saturday under judge Shirley Fippin. Then, on Sunday she took Best of Breed again under judge Nikki Riggsbee. That gives her three BoB wins in a row. We’re very proud of her.
It was a good weekend for Jesse in Hampton, VA. Friday, Saturday and Sunday started off slow and she took Best Opposite Sex each day. Today, Monday, she took Best of Breed under Judge Dr. Dr. Klaus Anselm.
As of April 30, 2012, Jesse is the #2 Chesapeake Bay Retriever bitch in the country according to the Canine Chronicle’s stats.

I’m happy to report that Jesse won her 6th Best of Breed this year today. Her record for 2012, so far, is: 6 BoB’s, 6 Selects and 5 BoS wins in 17 shows – not too bad for a young girl.

This weekend Jesse showed in Raleigh, NC. She walked away each day with the BOS award. Thank you to the judges who recognized her: Mrs. Betsy Horn Humer, Ms. Patricia W. Laurans and Mr. Michael H. Faulkner.
It was a good weekend in York, PA. Jesse took Select Bitch on Friday. Saturday and Sunday she took Best Of Breed each day. There was a photographer there on Saturday. She got a few nice photos.

After three weeks off from the show ring, Jesse went and took Best of Breed under Judge Robert Ennis. Jesse is currently the #1 Chessie Bitch in the country. She’s taking a couple of weeks off and will be back in the show ring next month. We hope her success will continue.
What a great weekend! Jesse was entered Saturday and Sunday in the shows in West Friendship, MD.
Saturday, Jesse (CH CoolWater’s the Tide is High) was entered in the regional specialty. She took the Select Bitch win under breeder judge, Mrs. JoAnn Colvin. This gave her another major (I do believe) towards her Grand Championship.
Sunday, she took BEST OF BREED, over many nice entries – including several specials – earning herself yet another major towards her Grand Championship.
If I counted correctly, I believe she might’ve earned her Grand Championship. If so, she earned it in 6 shows by taking a major win at each show. That’s awesome!
A huge thank you to Nicole Culotta with Golden Moments Petography for taking the candid photos of Jesse for me in the ring.
