Yesterday at the Richmond DF show in Northern California, under specialty judge Joe LaRosa, Winter Hawk's Breakfast at Rohan won the open bitch class and went on to go Winner's Bitch for her first major. "Zeeva" needs one 3 point major to finish her championship. She was bred by Chriss Simmons and Bobbie Kindy and is owned by Chriss and her granddaugher Jessica Frentz who also shows in her Junior Showmanship and has gone Best Junior with her and I believe put most of her minor points on her. Yesterday she was shown by Jessica's mother, Stephanie Frentz. This is the first shepherd that they have shown. Thank you to Joe LaRosa for finding this red sable girl in a very nice open class. Zeeva was sired by my Ch. Rohan's Reward TC,CGC,HT,RE,CDX and is out of Witmer's Frosted Toffee. This show is a good example of how GSD specialty clubs can work with all breed clubs. Diablo Valley GSDC does a supported entry each year with Richmond DF and donates trophies and promotes the show. In return, the club gives us a nice large ring away from the other rings and selects either specialty GSD judges or good GSD all breed judges. I think this show has drawn majors ever since DVGSDC has worked with them over the last four years. They are one of three all breed clubs that our local specialty clubs work with in the selection of judges and ring size. Kay Springer www.showboatgsd.com Home of Multi BISS & Multi Group Winning Ch.
