It was an emotional and very memorable week with tons to be proud of. Roux placed 3rd in the 10-12 Veteran Bitch class at the Regional, Fil\u00e9 took 2nd in the Field Trial Bitch class and Lucinda WON the Hunting Bitch Class. At Nationals, Fil\u00e9 took 4th in FT bitch and Lucy took 4th in Hunting Bitch. The highlight of my week was having both of my Duals entered in the All Star Review!! I wasn&#8217;t sure Roux would make it to Nationals with us this year so having them both in the ring was incredibly special. To top it off, Fil\u00e9 was awarded BEST IN REVIEW!!! I am still on Cloud 9 and so thankful for the love and encouragement of friends and family that helped us along the way.<\/h3>\n<h2><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">March 2015<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3><strong>Fil\u00e9 takes 4th place at the VCA National Gun Dog Championship!!! We traveled all the way to Mingo Sportsman Club in Ohio to the VCA NGDC&#8217;s largest entry to date.\u00a0 The grounds were spectacular and the course was challenging. Fil\u00e9 beautifully handled 7 birds with a perfect retrieve (her Grandma Di shot her bird) to earn 4th place out of 44 starters.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h2><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">January 2015<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3>DUAL CHAMPION AMATEUR FIELD CHAMPION FEEWAY!!!!

This last weekend we went to Neupoint Farm for the emotional and friend filled South Louisiana Vizsla Club field trial. Fil\u00e9 put on a show and snagged a gorgeous blue ribbon out of 17 starters in Open Gun Dog. Our closest friends were there to celebrate and I am over the moon.<\/h3>\n<h2><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">October 2014<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3>Zydeco Pups are in the rankings!!

It doesn&#8217;t get any better than that! I am over the moon with excitement over the news that Vegas completed her Agility Championship today!! Way to go Steve and Vegas! August 2015 Fil\u00e9 was bred to the one and only DANNY and puppies were confirmed via ultrasound!! Stay tuned for announcements about this very special &#8220;dual bred&#8221; litter!! Needless to say we are SOOOOOO EXCITED!!!! April\/May 2015 The Zydeco girls traveled to Ohio again for the National Specialty and Companion Events. It was an emotional and very memorable week with tons to be proud of. Roux placed 3rd in the 10-12 Veteran Bitch class at the Regional, Fil\u00e9 took 2nd in the Field Trial Bitch class and Lucinda WON the Hunting Bitch Class. At Nationals, Fil\u00e9 took 4th in FT bitch and Lucy took 4th in Hunting Bitch. The highlight of my week was having both of my Duals entered in the All Star Review!! I wasn&#8217;t sure Roux would make it to Nationals with us this year so having them both in the ring was incredibly special. To top it off, Fil\u00e9 was awarded BEST IN REVIEW!!! I am still on Cloud 9 and so thankful for the love and encouragement of friends and family that helped us along the way. March 2015 Fil\u00e9 takes 4th place at the VCA National Gun Dog Championship!!! We traveled all the way to Mingo Sportsman Club in Ohio to the VCA NGDC&#8217;s largest entry to date.\u00a0 The grounds were spectacular and the course was challenging. Fil\u00e9 beautifully handled 7 birds with a perfect retrieve (her Grandma Di shot her bird) to earn 4th place out of 44 starters. January 2015 DUAL CHAMPION AMATEUR FIELD CHAMPION FEEWAY!!!! She did it and I could not be more proud! Fil\u00e9 had a lovely run to score a nice 1st place ribbon at the FL Panhandle GSP Club field trial to finish her AFC and retrieving points. This last weekend we went to Neupoint Farm for the emotional and friend filled South Louisiana Vizsla Club field trial. Fil\u00e9 put on a show and snagged a gorgeous blue ribbon out of 17 starters in Open Gun Dog. Our closest friends were there to celebrate and I am over the moon. October 2014 Zydeco Pups are in the rankings!! Nikki is the NUMBER 1 in Advanced Rally!! She recently obtained her Rally Excellent title with an awesome score of 96! Vegas is the #10 Vizsla in AKC Top Dogs which ranks Double Q&#8217;s. She is getting closer to being Zydeoco&#8217;s first MACH!! Love my Roux\/Ozzy babies and I am so thankful to their incredible owners. March 15-16, 2014 LUCY SENIOR HUNTER!!! What a great but busy weekend. The girls and I headed to the LBJ Grasslands for a double HT in the crazy Texas weather. Hot and pouring rain on Saturday and freezing cold with 30 mph winds on Sunday. Despite the conditions, Lucy rocked all 3 of her runs with great scores to finish her SH and bring home a big red, white and blue rosette! I am one proud breeder! March 7-9, 2014 The girls and I packed up and hit the road to Kentucky for a double FT. It was well worth the drive because Fil\u00e9 won a very competitive 15 dog Amateur Limited Gun Dog stake for another 3 point major!! She is now 2 singles from finishing her AFC. Lucy was a rock star this weekend too and placed 3rd in Amateur Gun Dog (14 starters)!! Needless to say the trip home was much better with ribbons on the dash! February8-9, 2014 Fil\u00e9 continues to stay in the ribbons at the Trinity Valley Vizsla Club field trial. She picked up a Judges Award of Merit in OGD, a 2nd place in Open Limited Gun Dog and a HUGE 1ST PLACE in Amateur Gun Dog for a 3 POINT RETRIEVING MAJOR!!!!!! Wooohoooooo!! January 25, 2014 Fil\u00e9 started her field trial career with a bang! We traveled down to the FL panhandle for the Emerald Coast Vizsla Club field trial. At her first trial she picked up a 2nd place in Amateur Gun Dog and a 2nd place in Amateur Limited Gun Dog-retrieving with the #1 dog in the country, Kinze, winning 1st place. Not too bad \ud83d\ude42 January 2014 So Vegas is a rock star! There is no other way to put it. She added a very impressive set of titles to her resume and is now Zydeco&#8217;s Sunset Over the Bayou JH, MX, MXJ, MXF, MJB, T2B2. At almost 4 years old I can not wait to see what the future holds for this girl with a serious set of wheels!!!! January 15, 2014 ROUX ROM!!!!! I am over the moon with excitement over Roux earning her Registry of Merit from the VCA for her first and only litter. She achieved this with a remarkable group of pups that I could not be more proud of. Vegas, Lucy, Rex, Nikki and Fil\u00e9 each contributed to the ROM that would not have been possible without an incredible set of puppy owners. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to Steve and Janelle Larrison, Matt and Lyndsay Mixon, Karen and Jeff Voelkel and Jake and Jeanne Jurgens. December 2013 It&#8217;s been an incredible month.
