Shibas in the Big Rings week ending March 14, 2010
I was starting to lose hope there for a bit as I was going through last week’s shows. Seemed like there was not going to be even one this week. And then… I found a big one and then another! Doesn’t take much to excite me

Congratulations to Austin McCarty (and his grandma Mary) and Buddy on a big fat BLUE ROSETTE at Apple Valley KC on March 13. The judge was Ms. Marcie C. Dobkin. Nice to see a bulldog breeder can appreciate a shiba! Not being satisfied with that, Austin also took BJH under Marissa O’Connor! Buddy is also known as Ch. Jogoso’s Fool For Love.
Then the following day, another shiba placed 2nd in the group at Apple Valley KC (2) under Mr. Robert A. Indeglia. This day the winner was Shizu, Ch. Rihatsu Shizu-San Go.
I’m going to be publishing some Canadian placements soon thanks to one of my FB friends, still pulling it together for now.
