MULTI BISS CH BELLATAK MY FUNNY VALENTINE
(VALLEE)
Vallee started her "special's" career the end of June 2007. She has won many BOB's as well as many Group placements in a very short time, but nothing to date compares to the wins described below.
On August 16, 2007, Vallee, shown exclusively by David Murray, won BISS at the regional specialty held annually during the HCA National Specialty week. Last year in 2006, at this same show, Vallee won WB then came back to win top honor in 2007. Thank you Judge Vicki Abbott for awarding Vallee such a special win.
The National Specialty began on August 17, 2007 and concluded on August 18, 2007 when Vallee was awarded BISS (Best In Specialty Show) from Judge Norman Patton.
Vallee made Havanese history by being the first Havanese to win back to back BISS placements at a Havanese Club of America National Specialty event. Thank you Norman Patton for awarding our awesome Vallee the honor of the title of
2007 Havanese Club of America National Specialty Best In Specialty Show winner!!
We are so proud of Vallee and David.
Vallee is quite possibly a breeders "once in a lifetime" dream come true as she is a true example of what a Havanese should be!!
Vallee makes history again in 2008!!!!
This year the 2008 HCA National Specialty was held in Richmond, Virginia on August 30, 2008. Judge Dennis McCoy had the honor of choosing the winners this year. Mr McCoy put on a show for sure, as he made it very exciting and suspenseful when he was making his cuts. In the end, he chose our special Vallee as the
2008 Havanese Club of America National Specialty Best In Specialty Show winner.
Thank you Judge Dennis McCoy
Vallee is the first Havanese to win more then one HCA National and she did it two years in a row! BOS was also the same this year as last year, again another historical event for the breed! Both of these Havanese winners also have the same sire, CH Starkette Pride of Wincroft (Buster). Buster won Best Vetern Dog and Best Stud Dog for the second year in a row too.
Vallee's sponsor's and co-owners, John Oakes and Carol Shea were present to enjoy the excitement and celebrate with Sarah (my daughter) and I. We are all very proud of Vallee and David for what they have accomplished to date.
