Junior Showmanship Brag

Basenji Showing
  • Yesterday at Tucson, our lil Miss Jocelyn age 11 qualified for Westminster in Junior Showmanship. She was given FC Nowata's I Did It Again SC, aka "Buddy" the current #5 coursing basenji, as a squirmy 3 month-old puppy by breeder Sherry Stevens on the sole condition that she try Jr Showmanship at least once. So if anybody needs help ex-ing B's at either Eukanuba or the garden grab her she's available. Happy Thanksgiving to all those kind soles who have mentored her with guidance and treating her as an equal on the line and in the rings. When we tucked her in last night, we asked if she'd had a good day. Her reply was "everyday I get to do fun stuff with my dog is a good day."

  • That is awesome!! Congratulations to Jocelyn, and all of you! Best wishes, and I will be keeping an eye out for her on TV!

  • Just wanted to add written congrats to Jocelyn! She has become an excellent handler in a very short time and we've thoroughly enjoyed watching her progress.
    See you in Long Beach!

    Congrats on the win Beck! It is always cool for a puppy to win big their first time out.. but Peeps shoulda kicked her butt! I think that Becky is well aware of testing and what is involved. Her Jolly was a performance star and his life was cut short to Fanconi Syndrome. She knows all too well how Fanconi can suck the life out of a basenji. The test was a godsend, and those of us that have lived it, will use the test in and out, backwards and forwards… as it is too serious of an issue to breed against it with wishful or unrealistic thinking. But, there is always a good side to things.... as we type, Benny, Jolly, Data, and Nate.... some true great ones... are all running free, stalking bunnies... and having their girls....
