We would like to Thank the SETWA for putting on a very nice Youth Show in NC. We had so much good time, We had a lot of laughs.
2:30am Saturday not knowing what was in store for us my Daughter Breanna who will be 18 in Dec. and our dear friend Jenn, packed up four dog to show plus to puppies we took along for the ride and started from Ohio to NC. 20 miles out of Prinston VA a man flagged us down to pull over here my front tire was about to blow, this nice man changed to the spare tire followed us to Walmart where they was waiting on us here he called in told them we was in a hurry to get to NC. Well 10 if that the tire was on and back on the road. We did make it with 15 mins to spare.
Bree showed one class female, one CH male, one Gr Ch male, and one Gr CH female. (Walkers)
Bree won class Breed and Best female with Fergie (CH Cherry Creek Confetti) owned by Scott Houston of Ohio
CH with Charlie (CH C-Cruz Southern Comfort)
GrCH with Tucker (GrCH C-Cruz Gold Rush X Rated)
Then Breanna had to go back in for Over all for the show.
She won with Fergie, when they announced what the winner got We about fell over. Six dog, three people plus 210 pounds of dog food 4 beautiful trophies and Breanna won a dog box (we dont have one so this was Breanna most happy movement of her life showing). Then it was time to figure out how to pack everything in the van lol. People would stop by and just watch lol us break down crates lol move everything around to fit Breanna's new dog box. It was team work let me tell you lol getting it to fit lol. We got on the road headed back home, and lol hit a 8 point buck in WV lol. but got home safely lol.

Thank SETWA for putting on such a nice show, everyone was so kind, and helpful. It is awesome to see Parents with their kids cheering them on, but as we say CoonHound family is big and loving.
Thank You again

Breanna and Amy Dean

Lauren has been to alot of youth shows and the SETWA has to be the best we have ever been to. I would put the NC State youth running a close second. It must just be something about those NC folks!!

This as our second year, Lauren won this show last year. Lauren is only 12 so we will be able to enjoy for a while!

Thanks to everyone that is involved to put this event on. The kids really enjoy. I enjoyed it as well as my daughter did!
