It was a great experience for Ffinnigan.  His first time away from home and with everything being strange including the location and the handlers and caregivers.  We could not have asked for better handlers than Amy and Phil Booth of Blue Rose Kennels for making this experience a positive one for Ffinnigan.  Thank you!
Additional thanks to Leslee Peth for transporting him home.
​Ffinnigan's point total is now 13 with one major.
​

Ffinnigan - Khariz Omen Ffinnigan - makes his debut with Amy Booth.  His first show brings him Winners Dog and Best of Winners under judge Joanne Buehler.  Thank you for the recognition.  This brings Ffinnigan to 7 points in the pursuit of his title.

The kids do it again the very next day!  Ffinnigan and Ffatima come away with another 2 points each.  This time under judge Helen Stein.  It is an honor to have these two youngsters recognize by two wonderful sighthound specialists.

Concord, NC - Ffinnigan and Ffatima both come home with 2  points each.  Awarded by Bob Stein....we are grateful for the recognition.  This was the first indoor show for both of them and they did really well. Photos by Rita Cook.

Khariz Omen Ffergus Arabica is a new Montenegro Champion.  He also won his first CACIB towards his FCI International championship.  Congratulations to Ffergus and his owner, Diana Andrysiak.  Thank you also to Kinga Iwaniuk for posing him for this beautiful picture.

This week was an especially sad week at Khariz.  My darling Danger left me at 13.  He was an incredibly sweet soul and while he had a long and full life, the gap he leaves will be deeply felt.
Summer has also passed.  A rude and sorrowful surprise to find she had hemangia sarcoma.  A stealthful, destructive cancer.  She was far too young.
Sleep well my darlings.  You are well loved.

Piloted by the very talented Cody Temple, Ffinnigan had great results at the shows CFLASH weekend.

Thank you Amy for putting the finishing points on our girl.

Ffinnigan and Ffatima both accepted their first points on October 24th and 25th from Bob Stein and Jackie Stacy.

Ffergus does it again.  This time at hunting groups specialty in Poland.
He was Best of Breed Junior, winning another CC towards his junior title and then went on to be Best of Breed!  Added bonus was winning Best in Show III for the District competition.  Pictures to come.  We are so thrilled with this young Saluki's success.  Well done Diana and Ffergus.
