Bloomsburg Shows

Vanna and I went to the Bloomsburg shows on October 30, 31 & November 1, 2009. Vanna picked up another couple of points two of the three days. She now has about 9 or 10 points, I can't keep track. This weekend is a major in both dogs and bitches, so hopefully she'll pick up that second major there.

My heart & soul passed on to the Rainbow Bridge on Monday, October 26, 2009. It was a tearfilled decision we had to make about her, and we decided to let her go with that sparkle in her eye, and the determination & dignity in her spirit that we all came to know so well.




Sleep well my sweet girl, I'll miss you always.




The light of my life, the heart of my heart, the soul of my soul, Goodbye sweet girl, I'll always love you.

March 15, 2009

Otis...aka Eclipse Singin' the Blues was shown at his first weekend of AKC shows. He was awarded WD from the 6-9 month puppy class under judge Howard Atlee, for a 3 point major.

January 24 & 25, 2009

The new kids on the block, Otis, Gina, Rayne & Aurora went to the Canine Learning Experience. They all had a good time, and Saturday night Otis won his 3-6 month class, Rayne was second, Gina was third and Aurora was 4th in their 3-6 month class.

Sunday I couldn't go, but Rayne won her class, Gina got a 4th, and I don't remember what Otis did...sorry.

2008 in Review

We didn't do a lot in 2008, but being I just started this blog now, I'll post about a few things.

Definitely the highlight of my year in dog shows:
In June at the American Whippet Club Eastern Specialty, my girl Vanna...aka Daydream's Nights N' White Satin was awarded WB, BOW & BOB, from the Open bitch class, under judge Jack Simm. This was over Top Ten, BIS & Specialty winning whippets. She then went on to win a Hound Group 3 under judge Richard Byrd.

The day before the Eastern, my boy Rio...aka Sporting Field's Surfs Up was awarded RWD and Best Puppy (from the 6-9 month class) under judge Roberta Campbell, onto a Puppy Hound Group 4 under judge Daniel Smythe.

Vanna also ended the year a Grade C racer in CWA racing. I am very proud to own Vanna. Thanks to her breeders Linda & Erin Day & Kari McCloskey.

On a sad note: My beloved Emily...house dog extroidinaire, and my beautiful Cinder both passed over to the Rainbow Bridge. I miss them both terribly.
