On Saturday, Melana's Cut A Shine of Thornrose was WD under Charles Trotter to finish his Championship at the Chattanooga Kennel Club! Congratulations to his owners Ken and Sherri Wilhoit. "Cutter" was owner handled by Ken for several of his points, including one of his majors and his final points!! On Sunday, litter brother, Melana's Mojito, TC won WD and BEST OF BREED over two specials under Mr. Thomas A. Kilcullen to finish HIS Championship with wins in BOTH rings!!!! Thanks to specialty judges Ken Rayner for his first two points (1 shy of a major) at 15 months and Joe LaRosa and Amy Safdir for his two 4 point majors at 17 months. Congratulations to co-owner JudyLyn Fanning who provides Mojito with the life of riley and put 110% into his conditioning. These stunning males, who will turn two next week, make the 6th and 7th Champions for Ch. Melana's Pandemonium ROM and the 3rd Champion from her litter sired by Ch. Greenwood's Hektor. Litter brother Ch. Melana's Moonshine finished in July. (ALL 5 of Panda's Champion sons finished before the age of two). They also make the 10th and 11th Champions bred soley by me with FIVE of them finishing since October 2008! Of course, I couldn't have done so without their wonderful and committed owners so THANKS TO EACH OF YOU for your faith in me and my breeding program, when you could have gone 20 minutes down the road to the "BIG GUNS"!
