MONDAY MOP UP, REGION ONE, PART TWO

We have reported some on our next Region one stop, the suburban Philadelphia burg of Wrightstown. We told you that the Whippet , CH Starline Chanel, took the BIS Friday at the Greater Philadelphia Dog Fanciers Association.

CH Honore's Lily-Belle

Chanel’s co-finalists were the Labrador Retriever, CH Casbar’s Hart To Hart, the Boxer, CH Winfall Brookwood Styled Dream, the Sealyham, CH Efbe’s Merci Pour Le Poivre, the Italian Greyhound, CH Honore's Lily-Belle, the Lhasa Apso, CH Northwind Nothing But Trouble, and the Rough Collie, CH Kelso’s Moon Dancin PT.

CH Casbar’s Hart To Hart

The only one to make it back to the final ring for Saturday’s Huntingdon Valley Kennel Club show was the Lab, RJ. Pat Mowbray Morgan‘s other six finalists were the Pharaoh Hound, CH XO EZ JC, the Great Pyrenees, CH PyrlessStilistic Law-Order, the Kerry Blue Terrier, CH Bluebeard’s Suddenly Bridey, the Toy Poodle, CH Smash JP Moon Walk, the Keeshond, CH Quest Stand By Me, and the Old English Sheepdog, CH Whisperwood’s Wild Biscuit.

And the Black Lab, RJ, has momentum on his side, picking up his third BIS in the last month. The Sporting Dogs seem to have found their stride.

CH Scentasia’s Shake Rattle N Roll

Sunday, RJ, the Boxer, Scarlett, the Kerry Blue, the Toy Poodle, Walker, and the OES all made one last attempt to take home a BIS this weekend. Making their first final appearance of the weekend were the Otterhound, CH Scentasia’s Shake Rattle N Roll and the Dalmatian, CH Karefree Giovanna At Milledals. You only get one chance at making a good first impression. Just ask the Otterhound, who took home his first BIS of the year. This multi BIS/ BISS winner is the number one Otterhound in the US. Congratulations to breeders Ann L Hawley & E K Conway & M J Hawley & D Emery, owners Steve & Cathy Glenn, and handler Kitty Burke.

Next we're off to Region Two.
