We had a great time visiting many farms in Oklahoma and Kansas during the week of the Nationals. We had a chance to visit most of our pups and I must say they are looking great. We were given the chance to do some turnouts with Jeff and j.j. from crystal kennels and that was a blast. We need to thank Mick and Elaine Childs also for making us feel at home and giving us the tour of Abilene, everyone involved with their organization should be commended. I want to also thank Brad and Tracy Dumalski for taking time out to show us all of our pups and give us the chance to take pictures of them all, they are some busy folks. We also had a chance to visit with Alvin and Carolyn Staggs, what an operation. We were treated great by all. We can't wait till spring to do it again. We had the chance to meet the faces behind the voices and I'm not going to try to list them all, and most of the kennel owners whom race our pups. We were hoping our girl would have run better but with limited schoolings you can't expect much, this spring we intend to enter some older pups and should see a huge difference. Again thanks to all who made our trip so enjoyable.
