A Cruzan puppy update from Amanda * November 25!
I  just got a phone call from Shelly Hollen who took our cute Black Tri male
in our last litter, IvoryIsle's L.L. Bean. Apparently in the ASCA show this
morning he picked up a BOSp against some very nice competition. Then
topped it off at the afternoon show with a BOBp! I couldn't be more thrilled
for Shelly and Camp! You can see Camp on Shelly's site:-

NEWS from Di in New Zealand!
Attached are some photos taken of Nandi today at the show.  Although she did not go in the ring,
we took her along with us anyway for the ride.  She loved it and, as you can see from the photos,
was totally settled and happy there.  Bronwyn would like to show her tomorrow even though she is
not in full coat. Today, Zippo (CH Thornapple Hot Temptation) got the Dog CC and Best Of Breed!  Kisses from Nandi & Zippo
 She looks PERFECT to us, Di!!!!
We are thrilled to hear Nandi is out of quarantine & already hitting the show circuit!
Congratulations on Zippo's win & Good Luck tomorrow!
