I had a great time with you and Leslie, on Saturday night, got to make an old fashioned italian dinner to celebrate your Best in Show, just like old times. I really miss those days, had to also miss the show on Sunday, Holly decided to finally have those puppies after 3 years of trying to get her pregnant, she finally had 3 pups, one male two females. They are beautiful, hard time whelping, will schedule in advance a C-section the next time. Thanks for taking my little ruby girl into winners for me on Friday, you and her looked great. Again, it was sooooo nice to get to spend some time together. And always remember that Dreams do come true. Love, Diane Hi all. This weekend at the prestigious Ladies Kennel Assoc of America, on Long Island, where it all began.we came full circle with our Can Sel Am Ch Jantar's China Lake of Witmer, she went BOB, Group One THANK YOU CARLOS NAVARRO, and then onto BEST IN SHOW.under Mrs. Lee Canalizo. I still can't believe the day, the weekend, the win.and our beautiful girl. She just goes in there, and understands what is expected. Due to the judge having a back surgery, the dogs had to be judged on a ramp.she hopped up there, went right into her pose.and wagged her tail and played the showgirl she is.to the hilt. She was in that ring with very big winning best in show dogs.it was a beautiful line up! The day was personally very exciting for me.I have never owned a dog to win Best in Show, I was back where it all started on Long Island, Ms. Lee Canalizo was one of the 1st judges to award me points when I came back into showing dogs.and as everyone knows, Chyna is my special girl.and Leslie showed her to perfection, and displayed her talents are limitless too ! This was also her 1st Best in Show since Crystal. I thank her for believing Chyna can do it all. What was nice was to see and hear is all the fabulous comments on her beauty and her motion.a lot of people assume all breed people don't know what motion is, trust me they do. they were all excited to see it, we let her fly around the ring and she handled it like a pro. pick your judges and bring your good dogs. They will love it. I also give a big thank you to my co owners, Betty, Tina and Susie.for also believing and backing her so she can DEFY GRAVITY ~~~ Thanks for letting me share and brag.
