DALNAVERT'S LUVIT RHETT BUTLER "TAZ" picked up 5 points at the Northwinds dog show this weekend. Congratulations to Marie-Anne and Gary . Marie-Anne did a great job as a owner handler!

TONY also has 3 American champion offspring.

It was off to Toronto for the Purina National and the BFCC Booster. Carolyne came along as our handler,as Chrystal Murray was off to Crufts. Spent a "girls weekend" with Marilyn Torrance and Carolyne at the Residence Inn . Lex spent the time with us at the hotel. A little RnR for him away from the show ring.Carolyne did a great job handling him to Best of Breed at the Booster under Finnish judge Mr. Skalin. The show attracted many people , keeping the the BFCC booth busy answering questions about the Bichon Frise.

February is skating competiton month along with a Judges Seminar. Carolyne has now changed her status from coaching to judging. She is qualified to judge up to the Juvenile level and is currently working on her Pre-Novice/Novice level. Manitoba has a shortage of quality judges. I know that although she is an outstanding coach, she will be a great asset to the Manitoba's judges and we are fortunate to have her.
Brehdyn is growing. He turned 3 years on February 28th. He had a fun birthday party at our house.

2011 SEASON’S GREETINGS TO ALL OF OUR CANINE FRIENDS!

We would like to thank everyone for their support throughout the year. 2011 has been a very rewarding year in the show ring! The Dalnavert-Luvit connection has proven itself to be very successful. We have just achieved our 7th American champion and our 8th Canadian champion. We topped the year off with a Best In Show , # 1 Bichon Frise in Canada and an Award of Merit. This has all been accomplished in the past 5 years!
