Chase rocks the Winter Classic Show & Sweepstakes!

We entered Chase for two days of the Winter Classic Shows in December, and he was awesome! He went BOW and BPIB on "Glitz & Glam Day" Saturday for another 3 points! Many thanks to Judge Danik Dancause. 

Chase also won enough in Puppy Sweepstakes to cover all our entry fees! Thank you Sweeps Judge Lynne Rehsler. It was a really fun show, and he loved every minute of it! 

Thanks everyone for your sweet comments on our little boy and a big thank-you to our friend Crystal Ryan for the ring-side photos!

Many thanks to Judge Danik Dancause for these wins in a lovely entry of Shelties.

Chase’s first time in the ring at the Elsie Murray Dog Show!

Kathy and Chase travelled to Chilliwack in November and had a blast at the Elsie Murray Show. Chase, Kel-Lani's Chasing the Sun, was a little rockstar his very first time in the ring! He came home with 3 points going WD Friday under Judge Delvina Beaulac then BOW and BPIB Sunday under Judge Kathleen Anderson-Wulff.

Many thanks again to Judges Kathleen Anderson-Wulff and Delvina Beaulac.

Scout’s first Show!

Kathy took Scout to his very first shows at the Nanaimo Kennel Club and they had a blast! He came home with a Best Baby Puppy in Group rosette each day, and we’re so proud!

Not to be outdone, his aunt Rollie (Belmark Rolling in the Deep) went Winners Female under respected Sheltie Breeder Judge Mr. Glen Stark. She now has 8 points towards her Championship!

 

Scout’s registered name is 'Kel-Lani's Adventure Awaits' and we’re looking forward to more fun adventures with him in the future!

The puppies are 3 weeks old!

Gracelyn's puppies are just over 3 weeks old now! They're so sweet and loving - we could watch them play all day!

Puppies are here!

Gracelyn & Magnum's beautiful puppies are here! 2 girls and 4 boys arrived last week...

She's such an excellent first time Mom and we're in love with these babies! 

We’re expecting puppies soon!

Can there be a better reason to update our blog? lol Yes, our beautiful girl ‘Gracelyn’ is pregnant! She was bred to the stunning BISS AM/CAN GCH Laureate Magnified ROM/ROMC and their puppies are due to arrive next week! We’re so excited and can hardly wait!

With Dahly the Havanese in Puppy Sweepstakes

Kathy also had fun showing our friend Deb's Havanese to a 3 point win! Imagine a little dog totally covered with the soft hair that's found behind Shelties' ears...that's the coat of a Havanese!

Harbour City Dog Fanciers Fall Show

What an exciting weekend Kathy and Aimee had at the Harbour City Dog Fanciers Fall Show!
They won a Group 1st and Group 2nd and had a great time with friends!

Ch. Belmark Beloved at Kel-Lani ~ "Aimee"

My new favorite picture - with Judge Greg Storms from Ontario. He had SO many complimentary things to say about Aimee and that she was the nicest Sheltie he'd seen all year!

The next day I was thrilled to hear they won Group 1st under Judge Valerie Piltz from Washington. This takes Aimee more than half way to her UKC Championship! 

Kathy, you've done a lovely job with Aimee - thank-you for getting her back in the show ring! :)
I'm so proud of you both!

January = Back To School

January is back to school time after the Winter break. There's so much going on in the building all at the same time. Puppy Kindergarten is in one ring, the Novice Obedience class is in another, and sandwiched in between those two classes is the Show Dog Handling Class, with a Rally Obedience class in the corner ring.
I managed to get a quick pic of Kathy with Mardi, in the line with our friend Lawrence, and his Westie puppy Morse. 

It's great to get back into the swing of things!

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas!

May the joy of the Season

be with you all year long!
