| We went to a dog show with every intention of doing some shopping, but came home with a puppy instead. That's how Sioux came into our lives the weekend after Thanksgiving in 2003. This boy has about the best temperament of any dog I've ever encountered. He is the definition of 'easy to live with' and loves to play ball! He's one of the few Whippets who is a natural retriever and will do well in the obedience ring. The picture to the right was when Sioux and I won Best Puppy at the Jersey Rag Racer's versatility match back in 2004. Since then, with Charlene at the end of the lead, Sioux won Best of Breed under judge Vicki Steedle at the Chesapeake Kennel Club of Maryland show in November of 2006 from the Bred-By class, and helped win the team conformation class at the Whippet National in Kansas City in April 2007. He finished his Senior Courser title at the THLC trial on June 14, 2008. Sioux's picture was also chosen by the Pet Prints publisher for their 2007 Whippet Calendar. Sioux has gone back to live with his breeders, Charlene Stone and Bart Lowans, and his litter sister, brother and mother in Pennsylvania. |
