Congrats to Puttin' and Brigid. Also... A Silver Grand Championship is within sight after his impressive Florida circuit wins with Chris Jones. 

Bravo:

Since finishing, Bravo has had some exciting moments. He was Best of Breed at the Grand River show in July and is now a Grand Champ! He completed his final points at the Columbiana show in Ohio on January 7. Yay!! Wrapping up 2021 he was BOS, BOB OH and Owner Handled Group First! Way to go Bravo and Lori!

Hobby Horse Back to the Future won a 3 point major at the Columbus cluster in November and needs just one major to finish!

Our slide show.. some favorite photos:

Please look at our slide show of dogs.... we add to this as we collect more photos of our Samoyeds. You hope will find that they are every bit as appealing and beautiful at home as loved pets as they are in the show ring. 

It is with heartbreak that we share the loss of Ch Hobby Horse Nordic Ghost Ryder, whom we call Blaze. He was the sire and grandsire of of champions. He sired our Celebration and Skarlet and is great grandsire to Allure. And great-great grandsire to DeLorean, Moxie, Rocketman and Bravo.. the next generation. 

He was born on February 28, 2007 and passed on March 25, 2021. We will miss our little boy Blaze.
