October 18-19, 2007: In their first Vizsla Club of America National Specialty, Keepir places 2nd in the 9-12 Month Puppy Bitch Sweeps class and makes the cut in an incredibly competitive and deep Bred-By Exhibitor Bitch class despite being the youngest girl in the class at 10 months old. Also, Maddox places 4th in the 9-12 Month Puppy Dog Sweeps class (along with his buddy and "cousin" Hudson (Olde Ridge Soar'N Pfalcon's Hudson), who places 2nd in the same class!). Many thanks to National Specialty Judge Dr. Donald Sturz for finding young Keepir for the cut in a sea of beautiful Bred-By Exhibitor bitches from across the country, and to Sweeps Judge Eleanor Rensink for recognizing both Keepir and Maddox in Sweeps!
October 14, 2007: Maddox sweeps both days of the weekend and earns another point, going Best of Winners (and Best of Opposite over a special) at the Maryland KC show under Judge Paula Nykiel. Not to be outdone, Keepir wins the Open class and goes Winners Bitch, earning her first point. Many thanks to Judge Nykiel for awarding Winners to both Maddox and Keepir!
October 13, 2007: Maddox goes Best of Winners to earn his first point at the Catonsville KC show under Judge Robert J. Moore. Keepir also has a great day, going Reserve Winners after placing 2nd of 5 in the Open class (as a 10 month old puppy!). Many thanks to Judge Moore for recognizing the pups!
