Seeker & Starr have both been invited to the Eukanuba National Championship show this year in Long Beach, CA the first weekend in December. The Top 25 dogs in each breed are invited to attend and compete as well as any dog that got an All-Breed Best in Show or any dog that finished it's championship from the Bred By Exhibitor class. Starr finished out of Bred By Exhibitor class so she is invited along with her Uncle Seeker. Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend as I have my newest litter of puppies at home now and another planned shortly after they leave for their new homes. Good Luck to all attending this years Show of Shows!
I do want to thank all those that have helped me show my "crew" of dogs at the local shows the past 3 years. Cody & Jerry Sulewski, my two favorite Junior Handlers and their mother Cheryl; my Minnesota Junior Handler Kevin Freeman, Charlie & Sandra Zimmerman, Carol Millar & Lisa McDonald, Mike Reinke, Tim Mauleg & Dale Hafner, Gary & Candy Vetter. If I forgot anyone, please scold me so I add your name to the list! Without help from all my good friends, I wouldn't be able to show this many dogs. I am very lucky to have many good friends and Thanks again to everyone!
