The Havanese Club of America Regional Specialty in conjunction with the National Specialty.
Not a totally bad day at the Regional under Judge Lydia Coleman Hutchinson.
Rembrandt - 3rd in the Open Class
Pure - 1st in the BBE Class (HUGE CLASS) and WINNERS BITCH ! NEW CHAMPION
60+ Specials entered. Lydia broke the class into quarters and judged 1/2 of the dogs, then made a cut, then the other half and made a cut. Then brought her top choices back into the ring for another cut in dogs. She then did the same thing with the bitches. When she brought back her final cut of dogs and bitches she made one more cut before making placements.
Zeus - Made it to the last cut. Thank you to Lorette Ball for her help with Zeus.
Roche - Made it to the last cut. We were really hoping for more, he was in the final go-round, and the only one she kept in the ring that did not eventually get an award:( In all fairness there were others out there that I thought should have gotten something but the heat in that ballroom was taking a toll on everyone, especially the dogs. I was glad that they cooled it off a bit for Friday and Saturday.
Selena - AWARD OF MERIT !!!!
Many thanks to Jane Chavez and her crew for all of their help, again, this past week.
PS. REMEMBER FOR ANYONE TRYING TO CONTACT DAVE OR DARLENE VIA EMAIL: THEIR COMPUTERS ARE AT THE COMPUTER DOCTOR. (Dave's is at home but not working any better now that it has from the start.) Sorry. Keep your fingers crossed that they (the computers) come home safe and sound very soon. In the mean time I will do my best to help out. VB for Darlene
