Fun Match and Conformation Shows in Little Rock, AR. June 23 – 25, 2006
Fun Match:
Four of the puppies from the French litter were entered in their first fun match on Friday June 23. Steppin’wolf puppies in attendance were Rhythm handled by co-owner Amber Holmes, Twister handled by Ashley Emory, VeVe handled by co-owner Destiny Burge, and Harriet handled by co-owner Janie Blackburn. The puppies are now nearing 5 months old and were entered in the 3 – 6 month old classes. All of the puppies moved beautifully and it was a joy to finally see them in a show ring. Rhythm won WD over one male, while VeVe won WB over two females and then BOB over Rhythm. Rhythm and VeVe were also entered in Brace at the last minute for fun where they were handled by Amber Holmes. Everyone was astounded at how wonderfully they gaited around the ring together for which they were rewarded with Best Brace in Match! The overall results, a fun evening was shared by all and we at Steppin’wolf could not be prouder of our puppies.
Conformation Shows:
