BUSH RUN KC & HUNTINGTON KC

GCH CH Newcastle's Blame it on the Sun

We’re going to steel and country for our next reports, first to Vandergrift PA, some 20 miles east of Pittsburgh, where the Bushy Run Kennel Club gave us two shows two weeks ago.  Saturday’s opener saw judge Angela Porpora in the final ring with the Black Cocker Spaniel, CH Sovran's Aranjuez, the Black & Tan Coonhound, GCH CH Foxfire Full Force Gale, the Siberian Husky, GCH CH Amorok's Light Brigade At Kadi, the White Bull Terrier, GCH CH Global Mighty White At Kilacabar, the Papillon, GCH CH Fenice Le Beaudreaux, the Bichon Frise, GCH CH Glenleigh Gang's 'N Roses, and the Briard, GCH CH Lighting Strike El Xargall.

Taking the top awards was the Coonhound with the Best and the Siberian with the Reserve.  It’s the first for the two year old bitch.  Congratulations to breeder/owner Robert Urban and owner Andrea McIlwaine.  Perhaps some of their friends can tell them we would be happy to post the BIS & RBIS photos if provided.

Sunday, Frank Washabaugh would see the same Coonhound, Papillon, Bichon, & Briard, the Vizsla, GCH CH Double Gun's A Royal Flush, the Bullmastiff, GCH CH Newcastle's Blame it on the Sun, and the Bedlington Terrier, GCH CH Lamz Heads I Win Tails You Lose.
