Whippet National - 4/22 - Virginia Beach

 Well the Whippet National for 2022 is complete.  There were lots of beautiful dogs for the eye to behold.  Roxie.....aka Crossway's On The Rox, had a great time showing how she can look like a kangaroo on the end of a show lead...lol.  

The VRBO that I stayed in had a huge fenced yard where Roxie could romp and play in....she truly enjoyed that.  I'm so glad I was able to reconnect with old friends, and make some new ones.  

The best part of the week was what I won in the raffle on the final day.  A continuous looping lure coursing machine.  I usually never win anything in raffles, so this was a huge surprise.

I also took Roxie to the beach for a little fun in the sun. 

  

It was a great National run by local show chair Kristen Fredericks, and National show chair Cindy Scott.  I look forward to next year.....see ya all in Topeka. 

Starting Over

 Hello once again.  Some news!!!!!

After a long hiatus from dog showing and dog breeding, I have decided to start over.  

My last whippet, SBIS Ch. Daydream's Nights In White Satin....aka The Almighty Vanna, passed away on June 3, 2021 at 14-1/2 years of age. 

(Vanna pictured 3 weeks before her passing)

 I hadn't been showing or breeding for several years, but instead turned back 100% to participating in the other sport I love, trapshooting.  But with the high price and limited availability of ammunition to compete in the sport, I have decided to Start Over in Whippets.

 

So after a lot of research, finding puppies with a pedigree I like and want to move forward with, I purchased a show prospect puppy in December from Jennifer Dellos of Crossway's Whippets.  

Meet our new Starting Over puppy ---- Crossway's On The Rox  ---- click on the following link ----  Whippet - The Breed Archive  to see Roxie's pedigree.

There is so much that has happened since my last post (wow 2013!!!!!), so I won't go into any more detail, but will continue on from this time Feb 2022. 

Stay posted for more updates.  

I hope everyone stays safe.  Until next time.
