We would like to recap a few things from the latter part of 2013, share our Jan 2014 successes and some things to come.
Blinker finished her championship with all majors and a specialty win at 1 year. we are very proud of her. Robin did a great job with her, thank you Robin!
(pictured here with a junior handler)
Lincoln finished his championship with all majors too in only 4 shows! We were so excited and surprised.
Lincoln was only 10 mo old and was the fastest finishing Great Pyrenees for 2013!
He was handled by Denver who did a great job with this boy and even got a group 1 and group 3 Owner handler placement!
Echo has started her show career and is doing a great job. Abby who is 9 yr (also just starting her show career) is handling her and already has her first major.
Good job Abby and Echo!
Tonka has also started his show career and has his first major and a few single points as well as a puppy group 3. Tonka is handled by Robin and Denver.
Not bad for 8 mo old. We have high hopes for this young boy.
Fiona (Tonka's sister) is another new show starter. She has 1 major and a couple of single points from her first show weekend in Novi.
Fiona is handled by Robin and Denver. This girls loves being the star and you can't get her off the grooming table.
Fiona is co-owned by Matt and Melinda O'Connor and they have done a great job with her.
Bunny has finishied her Beginner Novice Obedience title and is working towards her next! Great Job Cindy and Bunny!
DJ won Best of Breed at the GPCMM Specialty in Oct 2013. He did a great job and Cindy could not beleive she won for about a week. Fantastic job and very well done!
He has also had multiple Owner/Handler group placements.
Keenai and Bonnie have been busy doing therapy work, making public appearance, as well as obedience and carting competitions.
Judy's never ending energy and dedication to the versitility of this breed is commendable. Please visit their pages to see all their accomplishments.
Emilee has found an awesome retirement home with Margo and her mom. Did she ever get lucky.
She was spoiled here but nothing compared to to what Margo and her mom are giving her. Thank you for a great home!
Tundra has retired to Georjeanne's home and is having fun with Falkor and Dakota. She keeps an eye on all the rescue dogs too. She is a big help and will be 12 in June.
Fire arrived from Sweden! She is from kennel Vi'Skaly bred by Pernilla Sandstrom and Inglea Mattison.
Fire will be an asset to our breeding program and great fun in the ring.
She thinks the U.S. is fun and loves everybody and has made friends with all the other dogs. She will be in the show ring soon.
Taylor, daughter of Nolan & Annabelle, was born on August 29, 2013. She was the only pup in the litter and thinks she is a queen.
Jewel, daughter of Kayla & Dylan, was born September 1, 2013. She was also an only pup and thinks she is the queen too!
They both have some growing to do before they start their show career.
Lance ia a proud father to a litter sired for Karen Melansen. Good job Lance, not bad for an old guy.
