Fort Bend Kennel Club – A New Borzoi Champion for Gryffyn’s Aeyrie!

Lone Star Classic – December 2012

UKC Shows (Hutto) and Siren’s Big Debut

Lump Adds a Title
Nothing like a straight-racing meet closely following the conclusion of a speedy bitch’s heat cycle when their speed tends to be affected by the post-hormonal slump.
Even so, Lump, aka Lumpus, formally known as FC Gryffyn’s Aeyrie Here With You, SC FCh, has added a new title to the alphabet soup attached to her name. She finished the requirements for her Gazehound Racing Champion title, eking them out in a tie with another...
Pasha is Grand
Today I opted to spend the morning taking Pasha, Shadow and Jules to the morning UKC show in Denton instead of to the LGRA racing “around the corner” in McKinney – Victor took care of that duty.
Pasha had been taking time off for an extended period following a ligament injury sustained in June. At first believed to be a possibly career-ending cruciate injury, after further testing and consultation with a vet not so eager to...
Rocky Mountain Borzoi Club Specialty Show – Fall 2012
Once again it was time for my annual excursion to the Fall specialty hosted by the Rocky Mountain Borzoi Club in Longmont, Colorado. It’s always great to meet up and visit with the folks in the area, as well as getting to see all the lovely local borzoi there. My traveling companion was Leslie and her lovely girl Danika – their first trip to RMBC.
After an uneventful (for us) Sweepstakes competition, we had a touch of success in the...
Lone Star Classic Summer Cluster
Boo winning Best Opp/Best of Winners for her first major under judge James G. Reynolds
Our Borzoi “diva” Boo (Gryffyn’s Aeyrie Boudicca) has not shown much at all-breed dog shows, the majority of her experience being attending two national specialty shows. She was entered for two days at the Lone Star Classic show cluster (three days of all-breed dogs shows, and one day of specialty shows, which at this time do not include...
Absent
Obviously this blog had gone stagnant. Various other projects, life changes, and a constant state of busy-ness cause this news-blog to fall into a back corner where it proceeded to gather dust bunnies. It’s time to attempt to get it up to speed once again! In the span of time since my participation fell away, we’ve finished several champions in the ring and field and had a nice share of notable wins.
I will attempt to add in some...
