Ch. Tramac Suspicions Confirmed, C.D. “Lizzie”'s life is best shown with photos.  Lizzie was special from the very start. She and her sister both got Parvo (the only time I have had Parvo) at about 7 weeks of age, her sister pulled through very quickly, but Lizzie was on an I.V. pump for 8 days.  She was just a bag of bones when she came home. With lots of love, special food and care she blossomed. Lizzie was the sweetest of Dals.  She was our first “smiler”, thanks to her dad, Jocko!  With much work and help from my Vets, Lizzie confirmed our suspicions that she had the right stuff, and at her first show at 7 months she was Winners Bitch. After that she went on to win Best in Sweeps at DCSC over 60+ puppies.  She got her first major winning Best of Opposite at the Puget Sound Specialty.  Her last major to finish was won in the pouring, freezing rain. I insisted on a photo to mark the occasion, but it is a horrid photo of us all! Lizzie earned her C.D. late in life.  She finished her C.D. with 6 qualifying scores.  Why 6? In years past you had to have 6 entries in a trial to make a leg, even if you earned a qualifying score.  Lizzie was shown mostly at specialties which, unfortunately did not have the required 6 entries.  So at 8 years of age, I took her to a local trial and she received a qualifying score, and no, I’m not going to tell you what the score was, but it was enough to give her a C.D.!   Lizzie was also a wonderful mother.  Her first litter consisted of 7 boys.  None of which made it to the show ring because of size.  But her second litter to Ch. Sunnyglen’s Spencer for Hire sure did!  That litter had one boy, Ch. Tramac Flew the Coop “Cooper” and two girls, Ch. Tramac Sneaking Suspicions, “Sneakers” and Ch. Tramac Mosaic in Marble, “Pepper”, that were shown.   Both Cooper and Sneakers were multi Specialty winners and National Specity Award of Merit winners.  Pepper won both of her majors on Specialty weekends.   Cooper is the sire of 4 Champions, 2 of which are specialty winners.  Sneakers was only bred once and produced Ch. Tramac Mochamotion & Ch. Tramac Trapped in Mystic, both of whom are Best in Show winners. Lizzie has left a legacy of wonderfully sweet, healthy, smiling Dalmatians.
