March-May 2008

Celebrating two AKC Champions sisters in March! Fly (Erin Campbell) and Ruby (Brad Briscoe) completed their titles within a week of eachother! Handsome fawn guy Tanner (Debby & Rick Knutson)also completed his show title with a nice major in February. We also have to give kudos to the the NCWFA and NCWFA connected whippets who did so fabulous at the AWC National Specialty in Oregon in April - the red rocket Ruby (Brad Briscoe) won one of just ten select awards given out of almost 100 champions! Syrah (bred by the Odrons)won Best of Winners over more than 100 bitches to complete her title. Winning their classes at the National were Tiger (Don McGuire), Bodie (LaDonna Lundgren) and Pie (Guin Borstel & Helen Hultman)! There were plenty of NCWFA dogs in the placement ribbons at this prestigious event too - check out the latest issue of SPEED to get all the scoop!
