What a great way to finish off 2016 at our new/old venue, The Grandview Arena.  It was nice to come full circle, from my younger years of competing at the Arena, where many of our dogs competed in the past. And what a very successful show weekend for us indeed.

Our beautiful Sable Merle, Keeva, GCh Dalgarnoch Celtic Von Matris, with her exclusive handler, Faith Codeiro, set the show ring on fire, acquiring her Grand Champion at 17 months of age, in very limited shows.  She picked up a Group 2, and 3 Select Bitch.

Gypsy, Ch. Paray's Mandarin Kiss, took a 2 Group 4, a Group 3, and a Select Bitch, putting her at 17 Grand Points.

Tiana, Dalgarnoch En a Vogue, our dynamic blue girl, at her first show, came home with a Best of Winners.

Whitney, at 9.5 months old, became  "New" Champion, Dalgarnoch By Request. She  Won,  2 Best Puppy in Group, and 2 Best of Winners, to acquire her CKC Championship

Oscar, GCh. Dalgarnoch Nite at the Oscars handled by his trainer Sophie Sutherland , took top honors with 2  wonderful, Best Puppy in Show, and with very limited showing, ended the year #5 Sheltie in Canada

Another wonderful show weekend for Faith Codiera and Sophie Sutherland , with Keeva and Oscar.  These two young Jr Handlers certainly know how to hold their own in the ring.  Coming into these shows with 9 points acquired her first time out, Keeva took the breed Friday, to finish her CKC Championship.  Keeva is sired by Ch. Dalgarnoch Long John Silver out of Ch. Paray Mandarin's Kiss.

Oscar, just 6.5 months old, and his first time in an official CKC show, picked up 7 points, and a Group 4th. Both of these dogs are owner/handler/trainer. So proud of them, and wish I could have been at the shows.  Oscar is sired by AKC BPIS Ch. Laureate Be My Guest out of CKC UKC Ch. Dalgarnoch Olivia De Havilland

Keeva - A new Champion in 5 shows, at 14 months of age.

Oscar - A stunning performance for this young Hopeful at 6.5 months old.
