53. GALLO GOLD WHERE THERE’S A WILL THERE’S A WAY, “Millie,” GF, Cindy Vinzant

Millie and Cindy came to the line at 11:14 am

Out and directly to her bird!


Contestant Survey:

When Did you begin competing in Field Trials?

About 2015 I went from running Hunt Test to running Field Trials.

What Made you decide to compete in Field Trials?

I have friends that compete, so I thought I'd give it a try with my Golden Retriever. Started with Derby and Quals. I was used to coming home with ribbons on the weekend Hunt Tests. That came to a halt. 

Who are your training partners at home?

John and Martha Russell, Robby Bickley, Tracy Wight, Dave Cuthbertson, Russ Hardy, Ron Aronoff, Don Ritter and a few others that come off and on.

What is the origin of your dog's name?

She was born on my mother's birthday and when my mother set her mind to do something, she found a way to make it happen! Thus, Where There's A Will There's A Way. 

Tell us an interesting story about your dog ...

Millie loves to sit on the coach just like a person with her arm on the arm rest. She thinks she's pretty hot stuff and when she's not sitting she' a little wild thing.

What Song and Artist would you want to hear playing as you come to the line:

Wild Thing by The Troggs
