RINCON — To see 12-year-old Wyatt Jenkins walking the halls of Ebenezer Middle School, you wouldn’t think you were looking at a champion dog show participant. That’s what he is, however — four times over!“We can’t find anybody that is 12 years old, who has, by himself alone, made his dog a champion,” Wyatt’s mother, Holly, said.Wyatt’s dog, Beaux, is an 11-month-old German short-haired pointer and he and Wyatt are just about inseparable.When asked how he got Beaux, Wyatt replied, “I wanted a dog and I liked that breed and she (Holly) found someone on Facebook and her line of dogs has been pretty good so far and, my Mom’s like, ‘Well, if we’re going to get this dog, you’re going to have to do something with it. He’s not going to turn out to be just another random dog.
