Saluki National in Lexington, Kentucky

June 6 through 10, 2011
Little Lashes - Omen Cee Candace Khariz - makes her debut at the Saluki National. In Sweepstakes she placed second behind her sister, Callie, in a large class of 15 to 18 month old bitches.

In the regular 15 to 18 month class, Lashes was fourth in a strong class of lovely bitches.

Thank you to judges Kevin Carlson and Stephen Wailes for these honors.

Yaffa's mom, Ch. Omen Ulla Bint Safran Monab (Beagle) won a very large 10 to 12 year Veteran Bitch class and ended the show by receiving an Award of Merit out of 100 plus champions. What a thrill to see this beautiful bitch shown by her owner to these awards. Thank you to Stephen Wailes.
Beagle showed her brood bitch qualities as well this National by placing 2nd in a gorgeous brood bitch class. Her daughter Yonna won the Novice class and daughter Ariel won an Award of Merit. In addition to these exciting wins, Beagle's daughter Yaffa wows them in Norway. See next blog entry.
