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.
