He was in fourth place until the last go round when he ended in sixth. Patton has also sired a Specialty Class Winner (SwanSun's Butterscotch Pudding). Also from the fourth litter,

Hank has a daughter, Little Bette of Heaven, who won her Sweepstakes class at the Inland Empire Golden Retriever Club Specialty (Spokane). Bette has her hip and heart clearances, while Patton has hip, elbow, heart, and eye clearances.  Patton has earned his AKC CGC certificate.  This certificate is earned by performing a series of 10 obedience exercises correctly according to an AKC evaluator.  Patton has also earned his RN (Rally Novice) title which required three qualifying scores under at least two different judges.  Patton earned his third leg in style by winning third place!  Rally is a new form of obedience which consists of varying exercises laid out in a "course".
