Caroline, our daughter and Cairo went win Junior Zone Finals and placed 4th at the Junior National Championship hosted by Belleville KC. At 14 months of age, almost 1.5 hour in the ring with all other young kids and canines, Cairo was a handling challenge to Caroline and her peer who got him at the dog switch part of the competition. In September Caroline has started her junior year at McMaster University.
The repeat breeding of Dorka x Kaden has produced 10 lovely pups. All are well and happy with their new families. We have kept a flashy brindle girl, Xelascon Fantom of the Opera, who is just being introduced to the fancy. We’re looking forward to having fun with her in the ring.
I’d also like to thank all members of BCC who have encouraged me to purse this opportunity and shared their thoughts or personal experience.
