I would like to congratulate the following first timers accomplishments from Premier.

Dale Criggers and Heavy Hitter for placing in the hound group and winning Reserve Best in Show on Sunday. You're winning Group 1 over the #1 Harrier in AKC was outstanding! It was a pleasure to meet you and enjoyed the laughs Saturday evening. A very nice moving redbone.

Tony Ford and Spike - took breed all three days with 2 wins toward his Grand conformation leg. This is a accomplishment, as you must have 3 or more champions in the class to receive a leg win toward being titled Grand Conformation Champion. The B&T breed had the largest entry with 5 & 6 entries. They placed 2 of the 3 days in a very very tough Hound Group!

Jessica Rentfro and her Treeing Walker Puppy PARIS finished to a conformation Champion. You've spent a lot of time with your puppy and it paid off!

Rebecca Geffs and her mother Denise. Bec entered her JR SHOWMANSHIP (which is very difficult to place) in her age division with her TW Female Stackem Ups Best Kept Secret, and came out the winner both Friday and Saturday with a class count of about 10 other handlers. Folks this is very difficult to accomplish at this particular event. Most of the other youth exhibitors attend handling classes each week, and attend conformation events on a regular basis. Little MS BEC, has been practicing in a mowed "made up" ring in her back yard! She and VICKY were awesome!!!!! All that hard work paid off!! The team now carries a Jr. Showman title along with all her many other wins. MOM you've become a great coach.... keep up the support!

Kandi Jonson and Stackem Ups Dancin With A Star - finished his UKC Conformation title in 2 weekends only 4 shows. THAT IS AWESOME! You've done a great job raising "the big lug"!

To Monty York and PENNY.... though not a hound... you're showmanship with your Parson Russell in winning your class was awesome! You'll be a very tough team in future events.

TO DALE YOUNG..... you're a great out fielder and man you made all of us look and feel A LOT OLDER as you walked with ease sunday morning after the First Annual WOO WOO ball! The rest of us... we'll we are still struggling to get out of bed without moaning!

It was a great PREMIER!!!!! Full of support, accomplishments, fun and most importantly...... LAUGHS!!!! If you've never been to Premier.... you're missing a great time.

Had a good time seeing everything and watching Dale and Hank do some winning .
Don't know about that walking with ease, just didn't want to let on how sore I was. Just had to step up after you guys said ' who gets grandpa ' when picking the teams.

In the pic from the hound group on Friday is
the treeing cur (behing the redbone).
Sheena aka Heartstop'n Tigereye Ziffany
is owned by Robert G Collins & James Cox
& handled by Rob. Rob showed her Friday & Saturday
& she got a group 2 on Saturday. Dale said she looked awesome both days.

As her breeder (she's sired by my Adonis & is a littermate to my Sammy), I am still a proud mommy whenever Rob wins with her :-)

Tricia, you never did send me the pics of her from last year LOL.

Anyway, wanted to brag on my girl a little bit too.
