October and November (2012)

OCTOBER AND NOVEMBER(2012) 




CHANEL AND DONA
      
Group 1 in Buena NJ.
     Chanel and Dona are still going strong at the shows. Chanel flew to her bronze Grand Championship in a few weeks from nothing and then her silver in an even shorter time. She got a group 1 in Buena, NJ under renowned judge Kenneth Buxton in stiff competition. She is now #3 in breed competition. Her invitation to Westminster came in the mail this last week. How exciting these past 5 months have been.


Also we started showing Hazel (Pine Cone Smoke On The Mountain) and Kelleigh (Lochwynd's Playin' For Keeps) toward the end of Sept.  in Deland, Fl. Hazel got her first major there and went on to get 3 more points in Oct. for 9 pts. all together. She will be at a limited no. of Specialties before the Nationals in Wisconsin. Always beautifully presented by Dona Williams. Then Kelleigh got her first major and points in Buena, NJ. What a couple of months.

 Also in August and Sept. Faith (Ceilidh's Keepin' The Faith At Truheart), who belongs to Gloria Markos-Krakow and is out of my Kelleigh, obtained 1 major and 2 points for 5 points and another major in Deland for 3pts. So she's well on her way to her championship.
Faith as a puppy





Also Gloria's puppy bitch Finesse (Deep River She's So Fine) hit the rings with Dona in November and acquired her first major. She is a double up on Scout.





  Can't wait to see what Dec. brings.



NEWS FLASH!!!!!

   I acquired a new boy this week from my new friend Jackie Bullock of Kyrie Collies. He is 10 weeks old and he will be Ceilidh's Heartland by Kyrie (Ty). His mother is out of the last Andre daughter. His sire belongs to Jackie and is a Bowen Island (Charisma's Redemption Story at Kyrie) son. He is just what I need to coalesce my line. Thank you Jackie for trusting me with this beautiful boy. Ty will stay with Kathy Moll for a while to coat up for the nationals.
