We are so proud of our Fantango Johnny Walker's daughter Lucy. She was bred by Janet McLean of Joyso kennel and Cathy Carbone of Sonyc kennels (USA)
Congratulations to the breeders and thank you for believing in Johnny's ability to produce something great.
Michele handled Lucy to Winners bitch with a five point major, Best of Winners, Best of Breed, Best Puppy in Breed and Best puppy in Group 1 a long day for a puppy but we tried to make it fun for her.

from Yasemin Dunn, November 09:
<<Hi Michele: sending you the latest pictures
of Riia. We just earned our first title...Rally A novice...she
did both days at Moncton with scores of 90 and 98%..two different judges...there
were 10 and 11 dogs in the classes respectively....and all were over the age
of 3 years....Riia is only 10 months!!!!!! SHE DID AWESOME!!!!!!!! I am soooooo
proud of her!!! She got 4th place and 3rd place respectively....and the only
reason she didnt get second was because her time was longer....>>

He has all his clearences and has sired his first litter for them. Once he gets his coat back and gains the weight he lost from being girl obsessed he will return to the show ring.
