April 25-29: National Specialty.  Harry and Hanna (and Bob and Ann of course) flew the Tannochbrae banner high. Harry started the week by gaining his JC certification in grand style.  Later he placed in his class and Hanna made cut in a huge Am Bred class.  I'm so proud of Ann entering Brace (photo © 2007 Dan Gauss) and doing an excellent job for her first time!  Hanna was also a big hit with the mentoring judges who had an ad hoc "hands-on" with her following her class.

Feb 10-11:  What a fantastic weekend we had. The weather cooperated so Judi was able to join us without having to battle blizzards. 

Saturday under Mrs Olmos-Olliver, Judi and Fea were Winners Bitch and Best of Winners, and Jenya and Zephyr got the dog points.  Tori and Charley debuted as Specials, and Tori was Best of Breed. The icing on the cake was Tori's Group 3 placement, followed by Gwynedd's Bred By Exhibitor Group 2.

Sunday under Jackie Hungerland, Jenya and Zephyr again took the dog points TO FINISH!  And much to my surprise, Gwynedd not only went Winner's Bitch but Best of Breed TO FINISH!  It was a long wait till group, but oh so worth it when Dr Hungerland gave Gwynedd Group 2 to the Saluki, who then went onto Best In Show.   I'm still glowing.....
