Gaining the favor of Dr Smith were the Pom, Chase, and the Elkhound, Eric.  It’s the first BIS this year for Chase.  Chase was 2012’s Number One Pomeranian and Number Eight Toy Dog, with four BIS and 38 Toy Groups.  Congratulations to breeders Robert & Celeste Solano, owner Margo Koga, and handler Noble Inglett.
