One place we did not visit this weekend was Elgin IL where the  hometown Elgin kennel Club hosted two shows.  Saturday’s final found judge Patricia Ulloa going over the English Setter, GCH CH Aerden’s Pretty in Pink JH, the Saluki, GCH DC Karob Parmenides At Elea SC, the Doberman Pinscher, CH Rolin’s No Reservations, the Russell Terrier, GCH CH Goldsands Columbus, the Havanese, CH Tapscott’s Total Recall For Brylee, the Bulldog, GCH CH Newcomb’s Pandamonium @ Beda, and the Bouvier des Flandres, GCH CH Cam’s Rogue Warrior CD THD.

Her Best In Show was the Bouvier Max.  Her Reserve Best In Show was the Russell, Bosse.  It’s the first BIS and the first Group One for Max this year.  Congratulations to breeder/owner Marilyn L Adams, co-breeder Catherine Humphrey, and owners Brian & Pam Sturgill. If anyone recognizes the photographer's signature, please let us know.  We want to give them credit for the lovely photo.
