We had a wonderful weekend in Chehalis this weekend – our last show weekend of the NOHS – hopefully Nick and I will have done enough to finish up in the #1 Owner Handled spot for 2026
Thank you to judges Mr. Robert E Hutton, Mr. Timothy S Robbins & Mr John Mayhall for Murphy (13) and Nick (15)’s BOV wins.
Murphy went on to a Group 2 under Mr. Robert E Hutton on Friday and Nick recieved an OH Group 3 under judge Mrs Robin Hug.
Nick got a Hound Group 3 under judge Mr. Timothy S Robbins and an OH Group 1 under judge Mr John Mayhall on Saturday.
Nick got a Hound Group 1 under judge Ms. Marilyn Van Vleit on Sunday (no NOHS offered)
Sophie and Lizzy also played in BPUP for 4-6 month old puppies and on Friday and Saturday they got Baby puppy Hound group 2 and 3 respectively. <3 Good job babies.
This weekend was Matilda (Tilly)’s final weekend of being in BPUP – this is a show for 4-6 month old puppies. I really like it as it gives them real world experience of the smells and noises of a dog show, as well as a stranger putting hands on them – we were thrilled that both days she went Hound Group 1 and she went on to Best Puppy In Show! Way to go Tilly-Monkey – next up the regular 6-9 month old classes
Tilly is out of my shared by Maxim – Kazuri’s Rocking The Naughty List at Roylcrest. She was bred by Rosalyn Rasching and is co-owned by myself (Sarah Sweetman) and Lorna & Sam Boydston.

I attended the Seattle Kennel Club this weekend with Nick, and enjoyed the brand new fancy grounds in University Way, Seattle – the sun shone and so did NIck – he won Back to back Owner Handled Best In Shows under judges Mrs. Nancy R Griego & Ms. Emily Fish. Thank you to judges Mr Jon Titus Steele and Mrs Cindy Meyer for the OH Group 1 and breed placements.
This boy just gives it his all every time – what a guy he is! I love showing with him so very much
I also got to show my sweet co-owned cavalier Lilibet (Kazuri’s If The Crown Fits, Wear It) who got reserve one day which was fun.
This new location on the water, in University Way Seattle, is just gorgeous – I cant wait for next year!
Yes, we came home with a new champion, but we also had lots of other things to celebrate this weekend
Nick (MBIS MBISS GCHP Kazuri’s All I Want For Christmas ATT CGC TKN BCAT FDC) won BOV each day. We went on to a Hound Group 3 and OH Group 3 under judge Mrs Cindy Vogels, A OH Group 2 under Mr Robert Robinson and a Hound Group 4 under judge Ms. Yvonne Savard
Bro (Kazuri N Wonderlust Trouble’s A Brewin @ Cloudepoint) bred by Sarah Sweetman & Malia Throop, co-owned by them and Amie McLaughin & Gary Sharp, won 2 majors this weekend. Bro has been shown by Malia in the Bred By class.
Not to be outdone by her big brother, 13 inch Alice (Wonderlust N Kazuri Curiosity Leads To Trouble) went WB each day for her first 5 CH points. Alice was bred by Sarah Sweetman & Malia Throop and is owned by Malia Throop
Potato (aka GCH Kazuri N Joyful Noise Sunshine On A Cloudy Day) bred by Sarah Sweetman & Dolly Stearns, owned by Sarah Sweetman & Kayla Bonnin was shown by a Junior. They won the “Best of the Best” together- talk about being SO proud of this little girl.
I feel like the Silver Falls shows deserved it’s own set of brags 🙂 There were 3 All Breed Shows that we attended alongside the CWBC beagle specialty show
I will go down dog by dog, as we had a wonderful weekend
Nick (MBISS MBIS GCHP Kazuri’s All I Want For Christmas ATT CGCU FDC BCAT) won BOVOH and Best Bred by under judge Mrs. Nancy Lovelady in15s.

Bpup was offered on Friday and Saturday of the Timberland Dog show in Chehalis this weekend.
Much to my absolute delight, Olivia won the hound group and a huge Best Puppy In Show with many puppies competing! WOW!
As a breeder and owner, it is such an honor for her to be recognized by so many judges and in such lovely puppy competition. Thank you to judges Mr Michael Savage and Mr Bill Fletcher for choosing Olivia as your “Best puppy”
Olivia (Kazuri’s Summer Lovin’) has just turned 4 months – some AKC shows offer the opportunity to 4-6 month old puppies to compete in a relaxed environment with AKC judges. It’s a great way for them to experience the show environment.
Olivia is out of our homebred dogs Ivy (CH Kazuri’s Tangled Up In Trouble) X Beau (CH Kazuri’s All I Need Is Love and Cake)
Olivia was a little nervous at first but quickly discovered the joy of meeting judges and getting chicken nibbles.
Much to my surprise and delight, she won the Hound group and “Best puppy in show” her first day in the ring under judge Mrs Rhonda  Silveira.
The next day she won the Hound Group under judge Ms Sylvie McGee..
