My plan was to cut down, WAY! down, on the traveling this year. Pablo's plan was "lets go to the shows"...he won! <G> So off to the Virginia shows we went. Great panel of judges........ not that I am biased......<G> On Saturday, handled beautifully by Leslie Dancosse, under Jamie Walker, our DEXTER went Best of Breed! Then Sunday, under Eddie Trocki, Leslie and DEXTER did a repeat performance to Best of Breed. and his son, Hawkins Johhny D, went Reserve Winners Dog with Lenny. Go Johhny!! Managed by George, Johhny also went Reserve Maturity Dog under Jack Kilgour on Monday. GO JOHHNY!!! Congrats to Neil Hawkins, Johhny's very happy owner. ( I think Jack Kilgour melted, it was 92 in the shade.) Thank You, Thank You !! for all the crowd support, all the compliments and all the appreciation you guys give to DEXTER, he eats it up!!! Thank You to the judges for the compliments and critiques on DEXTER, coming from these ladies, it means a LOT to us. KUDOS to the hosting clubs for all the work you put in to make this such a wonderful weekend. DEXTER is known as 3xSelEx US CH and 2x CanSel CH Karizma's Cacique of Inquest, TC, HIC, DM clear.
