Columbia Williamette Beagle Club Weekend

Leave a comment

I am not sure where to even start, but I am so proud of my Kazuri kids, both owned by us and other people. I was attending my Nana’s 90th birthday in New Zealand (where I am from). So, i was jealous at all my friends having a fabulous time without me, and also how proud I was of my dogs.

First up, I have to say I am so so proud of my 20 month old 13 inch boy MURPHY. He won Best In Specialty (BISS) at the first beagle specialty under Dr Andrea Bradford.

Savannah (Kazuri’s Gonna Be Peachy) took 13 inch winners bitch all three All Breed shows at Chintimini and proved she is a quick learner being at her first dog show. She loved and co-owned between Malia Throop and Sarah Sweetman

Claire, Roylcrest’s Anything You Want, You Got It, ( daughter of Kazuri boy Ch Kazuri’s To Sir With Love) in 13” Beagles, won WB for a major, Best Bred by Exhibitor 13”, BOS and Best Bred by in Specialty under Dr Andrea Bradford. At the second specialty under judge Mrs Wendy Boce she won 13 inch Winners Bitch and Best Bred by Exhibitor 13 inch Beagles. Kazuri is thrilled for Lorna and Sam from Roylcrest beagles and this super little girl.

Maxim, GCH CH Kazuri’s Rockin’ The Naughty List at Roylcrest bred by Kazuri and co-owned by Lorna & Sam Boydston and Sarah Sweetman won 15” BOS under Dr Andrea Bradford

I am so so very proud of my Kazuri dogs and how well they did this weekend. <3

New International Champion Titles

My friends Dolly, Malia and Ruthie and I went to Ridgefield to play at the International Dog show there.

We took beagles Savannah (Kazuri’s It’s Gonna Be Peachy), Gypsy (Joyful Noise N Kazuri Just Lace and Paper Flowers) and Whimsy (Joyful Noise N Kazuri Just Glitter in the Wind). Whim did not show but Savannah and Gypsy had a wonderful day. Both got their Puppy IntCH and Gypsy went on to get owner handled reserve best in show for the puppies. Talk about an incredible finish to the day!!

We took 4 cavaliers – Teddy (Kazuri’s Roosevelt Rough Rider), Puck (Kazuri’s Light Up The Ice), Charlie (Kazuri’s The Mystery of Hope) and Piper (Kazuri’s Play Me Another Love Song). All four attained top marks for their age and got their INT CH titles. I was so so thrilled indeed.

It was a busy weekend with loads of memories and fun. I am so glad I have these opportunities to hang out with my friends, road trip and show our amazing dogs. thank you to all the families who are guardians for some of these dogs and allow me to borrow them to show.

The Beagle National Recap

2 Comments

I’ve needed to take a moment to breathe and just feel so thankful to be able to attend the National Beagle Show in Mesquite Texas last week.

I am thankful for the friendship and comradery from the group of us that came together from Washington – to Dolly, Malia, Ruthie, Bonnie, to seeing friends I have known for years and others I got to meet for the first time finally after knowing them online (I wont list everyone as I am bound to forget someone). I say it all the time – I truly believe we are better together, and that community is better than competition. I try to live by those values.

I am thankful for the whole team under David and Ann to put on such a wonderful event

I am thankful for the opportunity to show my dogs and breeding program – Callie “CH Kazuri’s Everything’s Gonna Be Sugar N Spice” made the final cut in 13s with me on the leash.

Murphy with Karen, “CH Everything’s Gonna Be Alright” went BOS in 13s with Karen.

Nick with Mike (MBIS MBISS GCHP Kazuri’s All I Want For Christmas CGC TKN ATT) made the cut at the national but really shone being recognized as the #1 15 inch for 2022, Stud dog of the year for 2022 and amazing us by going People’s Choice at the National.

I am thankful to Leigh and Helen for entrusting us with Puddin and that she got “dam of the year” alongside sire Spencer. I loved celebrating with Terri & Dan and Chelsea – Spencer also won “sire of the year”.

Not to mention, sweet baby Savannah “Kazuri’s Gonna Be Peachy” who at 15 weeks with co-owner Malia, took every moment of the National in stride, travelling like a rockstar and kissing as many people as she could and utilizing any lap for a bed.

I am thankful to Mike and Karen for your wisdom and partnership – for taking my dogs to places they couldn’t have gone with just me.

I am thankful for those who brought my dogs to the National to show – Chelsea with the wonderful Tex “GCH Kazuri N Van-Mar Trouble In Texas” and his sister Penny “Kazuri N Van-Mar Trouble with Penny Lane” and Terri with Audrey “BISS GCH Kazuri N Van-Mar Trouble At Tiffany’s” and was so so proud to watch them exhibit so beautifully.

I am thankful for my friends and roommates Pat and Harmoni for sharing a room with me

I am thankful for the opportunity to touch and feel dogs, and talk to owners and be surrounded by so many beautiful beagles – some of whom i hope to incorporate into my lines.

I am sure I have missed things, and I am sorry if i did – I had a blast and can’t wait to see you all in 2024!! ❤

Nick gets BOS at Westminster

It is a big hoop-a-la to go to Westminster – but when your dog qualifies for the 3rd year, it really feels like you should go.

We were so so proud to watch Nick strut his stuff on TV and represent himself and beagles so very well. He got BOS which is “Best Opposite Sex” to the girl who won – so essentially he was the Best of the boys 🙂 While it didnt earn him a trip to the Hound Group, we were also very happy for Oleg V and Cukierka who won.

Here are some screen shots I took from the TV – no editing (obviously) – he is super

Violet finishes her CH title

Pending AKC approval, Kazuri has beagle CH #5 for 2021

Violet – CH Kazuri’s Keeping Up Appearances. <3

Violet is the daughter of Mia (CH Foxtail’s Need For Speed TKN) and Riker (GCH CH Starbuck & Manabay Boldly Go Fourth, BCAT, ORT, L1V, NW1) and finished at the Houston World of Series Dog Shows with 3 majors. She is now going to retire for a little bit until it’s her time to have babies.

We are so proud of this sweet and sassy little girl. She has gone to live with Riker’s mom Rebecca Dodson, who runs BodlyGoSports – she trains and competes in agility, dock diving, nose work and more. Violet is going to be very happy.

Sir finishes getting all his single points at the Puyallup Cluster.

Sir (also known as “King Louie” to his family) garnered all his singles this weekend. Now just need to find him some majors to finish his CH title.

Official win photos to come so a candid from the showgrounds will have to do.

On Friday, at the Puyallup Valley Kennel Club, Kazuri’s To Sir With Love went Winners Dog/Best of Winners under judge Mr. Nathaniel Horn.

Sir went Winners Dog/Best of Winners/Best of Opp over a special on Saturday under judge Mr. Bryan Martin.

He went Winners Dog on Sunday under judge Mr. Luis F. Sosa.

He went Winners Dog again on Sunday under judge Mrs. Patti Wadick Neale.

Sir is out of our homebred champion “Emmy” (CH Kazuri’s Dreaming of an Emmy) and “Ben” (BIS/BISS CH Kahootz Chase Manhatten).

Sir is MLS/F7/NCCD/CAT clear and black tri dominant.

Thank you to the judges who found my “Covid baby” this weekend and congratulations to all the other winners. Thank you also to Tammie Wilcox for showing Sir this weekend. I always appreciate her so much. I had a crazy weekend with other commitments, so appreciated her support.

Rosie gets both her Majors

Rosie (Kazuri’s Everything’s Coming Up Roses) had a wonderful weekend at the Strawberry Classic in Lakeland Florida. She went Reserve Winners Bitch on Friday under Mrs Sulie Greendale-Paveza.

Rosie went on to win Winners Bitch and Best of Winners for a 4 point major on Saturday under Ms. JoAnne Buehler.

On Sunday she repeated her win for Winners Bitch and Best of Winners and a 3 point major on Sunday under judge Mr. Raymond V. Filburn Jr.

I am so thankful to these judges who found that Rosie was a quality girl in the lineup of 13 inch dogs. She now just needs 3 singles to finish her CH title. Not bad for only 2 weekends of showing 🙂 Good job Rosie Posie.

San Mateo and Oakland Dog Shows

Rosie (Kazuri’s Everything’s Coming Up Roses) and Nick (Kazuri’s All I Want For Christmas) had their debut at the San Mateo and Oakland dog shows this weekend. Due to Covid, all the dog shows around California have been cancelled this year and so we were grateful that these ones went ahead with so much planning and social distancing.

My co-breeders and co-owners Mike and Karen Kurtzner took Rosie and Nick into the ring. We never know how a first weekend will go, especially when they are over a year, but Nick and Rosie took it all in stride and acted like they were old pros.

Rosie showed in 13s, taking Best of Breed Thursday, Friday and Saturday and then Reserve Winners Bitch on the Sunday.

Nick showed in 15s and went Best Dog and Best of Winners each day and then Best of Breed Saturday and Sunday – Saturday was over specials.

While there weren’t big points to be won, I am thrilled at the start these two have made.

A huge thank you to judges Mrs Barabara Dempsey Alderman, Ms Denney C. Mounce, Ms Peggy L Lloyd and Mrs Debbie Campbell-Freeman for recognizing our dogs.

Rosie is Madison x Walter (CH Foxtails Dreaming of the Race TKN x BISS GCH Meadowcrest Just Call Me Sir) and Nick is Vixen x Payton (CH Hailstorms Feeling a little Foxy at Kazuri TKN x CH Malarky In Good Company).
