Gryphon's Caribbean Moonlight Cocktail!  Mo came out once this year, to show in Sequim with his little cous Bodhi.  He won the first day, so we pulled him so he could show in the "big shows" later in the summer.  He placed well at the SKAMF specialty/all-breeds, but didn't quite make it to the top.  The next show, though, Mojito came through!  with a Winners Dog/Best of Winners and Best Bred-by-Exhibitor! to finish out his Championship!  It was extra special as this was the "2-year anniversary" of Mojito going to his true heart-home with Tina Allen & Fred Westfall, our dear friends who picked up Mojito at the Gig Harbor KC (Shelton) shows when Mojito was 8 months old.  Tina & Fred were both able to be there, which made it ... particularly awesome :)

Gryphon Moon's Star in the Sky!  Mira, owned by Teri & Scott Carranza, came up to visit us for the SKAMF specialty, and we were so proud to share in the moment!  Mira, handled exclusively by her new-to-showing (though not new to mals) mom Teri, took Winners Bitch at the SKAMF specialty for a major, and then Winners/Best of Winners at the accompanying all-breed show that Sunday!  to finish out her AKC Championship with three majors, all on specialty weekends.  We could not be more proud of you :)
