Dog shows here in the Mid-South often get dismissed as small entry, back water events.  However, this weekend’s Arkansas Kennel Club shows in Little Rock AR had all the drama and star power you look for in marquee shows.  Saturday’s event saw the Great Dane, GCH CH Longo Miller n Lore’s Diamond Lil, break a 30 year old breed record.

Her Best was the Welsh, Jennie, and her Reserve was Scout, the Great Dane.  Jennie is the nation’s Number One Welsh, Number Three Terrier, and the Number 14 Dog All Breeds with 11 BIS and 39 Terrier Groups.
