Shelby
Jaytea Chesara One Moment In Time, CGC
born 6/8/2010
At 12 weeks of age:
Hard to say exactly when Shelby started to catch my eye, but I'm guessing it was
about the time he was 7 or 8 weeks old.  Can't say exactly why, but I really
wanted to hold on to him to see how he grew up.

Leslie Carroll solved that problem for me - she just couldn't let this puppy go to
anyone else.  So Shelby went with his sister Rosa to live in PA with a house full of
Borzoi, one Ibizan and a couple of other Whippets.  

In his first time in the conformation ring, after two 5 minute sessions of leach
training, he ended up loosing to his sister,
Rosa.  No harm in that!

After watching him grow up he has turned into a very sweet boy, who does not
like to be too far from the 'safety' of Mom or Dad and we have been unable to get
him to chase a lure more than a few yards.  Therefore, since chasing a lure IS
what the breed was created to do, he's not going to be part of my breeding
program and I've decided to make him available to a loving home.

While we're waiting for just the right home for Shelby, we have completed a
puppy beginner obedience class where he learned how to 'sit' and 'down'
although his recall still needs work!  Now we're attending a Canine Good Citizen
(CGC) class and at the end of this 8 week class I expect he will pass the CGC
test.  He has already come a long way towards paying attention to me.
