Hillsborough County Outstanding 4-H Members
- Brie -


Brie and her Corgi have been a frequent site in the winner's circle at Florida 4-H Dog Shows for many years. Brie and Roxie have competed in Showmanship, Agility, Rally and Obedience. Brie has excelled in Showmanship, and has won Junior Showmanship classes at AKC Shows. Brie is not only an excellent student, she competes in cheerleading and has won several pageants.

While Brie and her family live in Pasco County, since 2007 they have driven to Hillsborough County to be part of the Kids & Kritters 4-H Club. Brie's family are very supportive of Brie's activities and have truly made 4-H a family affair. The whole family is always on hand to set up and tear down at all the Hillsborough County Dog Shows, and Brie's mom Kim often volunteers to work at the raffle or awards table.

Brie and Roxie won the Best Junior Handler class at the Florida 4-H Scholarship Show in November of 2009. While Roxie's illness forced their withdrawal from the 4-H State Fair Dog Show and the Hillsborough County Fun Show, the family still drove down to help with the show set up!

Brie is an outstanding 4-H member, and a true role model for other 4-H members!Dog Shows for many years. Brie and R

They immediately resumed training their Dachshunds with the Hillsborough County 4-H Dog Project.

Bret who was a senior in high school this year, began showing dogs at age 12 while still in Indiana. He started
with his dog 'Leonardo' who was a black and tan dapple Dachshund, then went on to train 'Drover' a blue Merle Aussie.


After arriving in Florida, Leonardo & Bret immediately found success in the show ring. It was very clear to his 4-H instructors that Bret was very talented, and very serious about training dogs. In Bret's second year in Florida the 4-H instructors

. asked Bret to help train his fellow 4-H members in Obedience. It wasn't long before Bret was also helping with Agility, and would often be asked to work the instructors daughter's Jack Russell Terrier (Barkley) at class. After the sudden and unexpected death of Bret's Dachshund Leonardo, Bret began working Barkley full time. Barkley loves to show, and often would excitedly bark at Bret in the show ring. Bret always kept his composure and in his own quiet, patient way, would wait for Barkley to focus and continue on in a class. Because of this during the 2009 4-H year Bret and Barkley excelled in Showmanship, Obedience, Rally and Barkley's favorite Agility.


Caitlin and Bret Taylor have always volunteered before and after all of the Hillsborough County 4-H Dog Shows. They come early and help set up the rings, and stay late to help pack up the equipment. They are great examples of 4-H members who have 'learned by doing' and show great leadership skills!
