Lyn and Bob Krivanek—DUNDEE
Our young tri male, DUNDEE SHARROW SANTA CRUZ (Am/Can Ch. Dury Voe Wintergreen ex Am/Can Ch. Sharrow Arizona Nights), is the PROUD SIRE of ASSA's RWD, Homespun Casual Blues, who was a crowd favorite and won from the 9-12 puppy dog class, much to the delight of owner Julie Iverson! Cruz has hardly started his OWN show career and has just returned from his co-owner, Margaret Pratt, after spending the winter in Canada. We hope to get him out to some local shows too.
Congratulations from Dundee to Award of Merit winner (from the 10 yr and older Veteran Bitch class) Laureate Louisiana, daughter of our Jambalaya. She looked absolutely beautiful and inspired us once again with her type, elegance and soundness. She's one of those inspirational Shelties that provides us with a picture of an ideal Sheltie. LK

Jean Simmonds—CARMYLIE
At Harrisburg, "Enya," Carmylie Brandina Wild Child, won BB over two specials for her second major. Then, at Timonium on the 21st, she was BOS for her final point, thus obtaining her championship. At that show, her son, Carmylie Paint The Sky (co-owned with fellow club members Jan George and Willie Larrick) was RWD and her daughter, Carmylie Miss Quinn, was RWB to her - so quite a family affair! "Quinn" was shown by Cindy Gaines.
During that same week, ANOTHER daughter from the same litter, Carmylie The Rain Sings, won second in the 9-12 class at the National in Greely. This exceptional litter is sired by Am/Can Ch Dury Voe Scottsdale, who is in turn sired by our own Lyn Krivanek's Dundee Arizona. A fourth puppy is in a show home in Canada and the owner is very pleased with her development as well. This breeding will be repeated when "Enya" comes in season this summer.
Once again I am SOOO excited! Today (5/26) Gwen, (my bi-black girl Carmylie Bi Bi Blackbird, CGC, 12 pts, 1 major) qualified in the Herding Test division (one step above Herding Instinct test—we actually move sheep from one point to another and back again—with pauses along the way) at her first AKC herding trial, to give her one of two legs needed to obtain the Herding Tested title! She was awesome (though needs some work on CONTROL). There was a professional photographer there, so we should have some really great shots to share. Gwen also has a qualifying run in both NA and NAJ agility and is entered in two trials in late June and early July, so hopefully, I'll have news of two new titles after that time.
Triumph Lanstarr Rock-N-Roll Rebel, sired by Carmylie After The Storm out of Triumph Lanstarr Angel Among Us, has his second major under judge Joe Holava at Trumbull County KC on May 25th.

Rachel Pratt has been showing two of our dogs in Canada. Dundee Americana (Aimee), who is the litter sister of Dundee Arizona, won two shows in one weekend so she has 6 points toward her Can. Ch. She is on lease to Rachel and has been bred, so her career will probably have to wait a while now. Rachel also showed Dundee Sharrow Santa Cruz, who is the 7-month old tricolor son of Am/Can Ch. Sharrow Arizona Nights (Eve) and Ch. Dury Voe Wintergreen. At his very first show, Cruz went WD, BOW, Best of Breed over a top special, Herding Group 2 - and Best Puppy in Show! LK
