We want to thank Rita Sandell on Friday for finding our 12 1/2 month male in the 12-18 class Witmer's Congo of Vanderwerth. "Congo" showed his heart out for us and was one of 3 that got pulled out for the WD look. On Sunday in the futurity under judge Kathy Casteel, Congo led the teenage class until the last round. She gave them a good workout, a lot of gaiting, and my young boy gave his best. He ended up in 2nd place in a deep quality class, expertly handled on both placings by Mike Sherman. Kathy's words of encouragement as to his type, movement and future were well appreciated. Congo is out of Witmer's Nantucket and Ponca Hill Xelda of Lexus (full sister to Demi and Desi - way to go Jack!) His breeders are Sue Witmer and Bob Vanwinkle, and I thank them so much for letting such a fine youngster come my way. Many thanks to those at ringside that supported him.
