It was a great experience for Ffinnigan.  His first time away from home and with everything being strange including the location and the handlers and caregivers.  We could not have asked for better handlers than Amy and Phil Booth of Blue Rose Kennels for making this experience a positive one for Ffinnigan.  Thank you!
Additional thanks to Leslee Peth for transporting him home.
​Ffinnigan's point total is now 13 with one major.
