Leo's finishing pic

Finally! Here is Leo's pic from finishing Aug 1, 2010 under Mrs. Pluis Davern in Greenville. Very happy to report that his eye's CERF'd clear, he's FN clear by parentage, Optigen A, and his OFA rated Excellent. All very good news we just got in the past week! I love how the judge, handler and cookie jar are all sporting the exact same shade of blue!

Announcing CH Amawalk's Beam Me Up A Faerytail

My boy did it! He finished on Sunday with his fourth 3 pt major! He is the 20th champion sired by his father, Ch Amawalk's Dunelm Clansmen, ECM aka Scotty and the 61st champion bred by his breeder, Betty Ganung of Amawalk Kennel. Leo was expertly groomed by Mindy (also Leo's co-breeder and the breeder of Cosmo), and handled by Rick Day on Fri and Sat, and by Kristen Mooney on Sunday. I am so happy and so proud! There was a nice line up in Greenville this weekend, and LOTS of orange. Usually, we're surrounded by the blue roans/BRaT's...but not this time. I enjoyed being a spectator, although I had to hide from him as I didn't want to jinx us (he's a mama's boy). Betty took a couple of pictures of him, and I'll get a copy of his winning picture when I get it in the mail. Hopefully it won't take too long. My daughter is glad her "peanut" (he's really not a peanut) is back home after being gone for a week. I'm glad to have my goober boy back. It sure was lonely without him!
