We traveled to a show in northern Saskatchewan this last week-end. I took Jill, my whippet girl, Blush, a sable rough girl and also took Giorgio, a tri rough male who is 11 months old (actually, he's a year today!). Giorgio was only in our National last October where he was RWD. I wanted him in one all-breed show before he turned a year. This one is 6 shows in the 3 days so there was the possibility of finishing him in the one weekend. He showed like a seasoned show dog, never let me down and ended up getting all 6 Best of Breeds, a group 1, a group 2, 2 Best Puppy in Group and a Best Puppy in Show!!!!!!! So, he finished and then some! Giorgio's group winning judge was Jan Buchanan who also gave him Best Puppy in Show the next day and the group 2 judge was Merlin VanderKinder. Giorgio is now Ch. Tamaron's Haute Couture.

Blush (Tamaron's Caught In The Act) is a 16 month old bitch that has not been shown but I am taking her to the CCA in Wisconsin next week and decided she needed some ring time. I only put her in three of the shows and she was WB twice. Blush has been sitting at home while her smooth brother Kennedy (Ch. Tamaron The Real Deal) was shown (he won the Smooth Variety at our National at 11 months of age) and also her smooth sister Flirt (Tamaron's Out All Night) who was RWB smooth at the National and her rough look a-like sister Fallon (Tamaron's Hearfelt) who was RWB rough at the National. Fallon and Flirt now each have 7 points so it was time to bring Blush out.

My little whippet girl Jill, was not to be outdone by her playmates so she proceeded to win 4 group 1's, a group 3 and 2 BEST IN SHOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They are her first BIS so there were a few tears after the first one, I must admit!! Tom Alexander was the first BIS judge and Walter Pinsker was the second one.

Needless to say that weekend was the weekend of all weekends for me!! Only winning so much at our National last year could even come close!

For those of yoiu going to the National in Wisconsin, please come by and say hi!!!
