GCH CH Gunther's Gussied Up Edna

The two she liked were her BIS, the Springer, George, and her RBIS, the Boston Terrier, Edna.  Breeder/owner handled by Melanie King, George maintains a relaxed show schedule, venturing out whenever Melanie can get away.  Still George has managed to amass seven Best In Specialty wins as well eight Sporting Group top prizes.  This is his first all breed Best In Show.  Congratulations to Melanie and owners Kathy Lorentzen, BA Breese, and Liz Kiener.

GCH CH McMatt's Autumn Breeze

George and Edna were back on Sunday to see BIS judge Steve Hayden, along with the Whippet, GCH CH Starline's Oxford Victim Of Love, the Portuguese Water Dog, CH Sailaway Root Beer Float, the Parson Russell Terrier,  GCH CH Foxbend Colour Me More, the Pug, CH Blueridge’s Night Moves At Kngz, and the Australian Shepherd, GCH CH McMatt's Autumn Breeze.  

 Once again Edna would get the runner up ribbon, but the BIS would go to the Aussie, Breezy.  Another first timer, it was only Breezy second final appearance this year.  Congratulations to breeder/owner Flo McDonald, co-breeder Tina Marie Beck, owners Janet Loehr & Vicki Wehrle, and handler Paul Catterson.
