Rave has started the 2007 year off with great successes. I would like to thank Cheryl Stuber for the Group 1 and Paul Stanton for the RBIS on Saturday, Feb 3, 2007. I would also like to thank Christine Hubbell (Breeder/Judge) for the Group 2 on Sunday. 

Thank you Ladies and Gentlemen for
making Rave’s 2007 start a glowing
success and for your comments about Rave. 


FLASH!!! Rave takes Best In Show, July 30, 
2006 under respected Judge Anita Cairns. 


Rave was awarded Best Of Opposite Sex at the 
Cdn. National Specialty Aug 5, 2006. Thank you 
Lester Mapes for recognizing Rave’s potential.


Rave, working as a team with Marni, was awarded 
a 5 pt major win and 2 5pt major RWD while doing
the Copper Circuit in Montana June 2006. 





 


Rave's show career as a puppy was beyond expectations and has continued into his early months as a young adult. Rave has won multiple group placements, of which many have been Group 1s which have lead to multiple Reserve Best In Shows under Maxime Beem, Doug Windsor and Paula Hartinger.

A special thank you to the respected Judges who have recognized this young boy’s potential and to the Handlers who have teamed with Rave for his major accomplishments – Kim Cowie, Professional Handler; Scott Leitz, Professional Handler; Marni Kueber, one of Rave's favorite people and myself. 

I trust that the 06 show year for Rave, as an adult, will prove just as exceptional and exciting!

Bred and lovingly owned by Peggy Mignon.
