Gleanntan Kennels - 2003:
The Year in Review

December 15, 2003 - Delaware Water Gap & Lehigh Valley KC shows

Our 2003 season of showing concluded this past weekend in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. These two shows are always enjoyable with the festive atmosphere of the holiday season. We are pleased to report that our Skyes met with some success as well - Ch. Gleanntan Gotitxactlyrite - "Arnie" took Best of Breed both days and earned a Group 4 placement on Saturday under judge Mrs. Karen C. Wilson. Gleanntan Gettin' Busy - "Ellie" took Winners Bitch and Best of Opposite Sex from the 12 to 18 month class on Saturday for 2 points.

December 9, 2003 - Greater Hickory KC & Forsyth KC shows

Maida and I were at three shows this past weekend in Winston-Salem, North Carolina - the Greater Hickory KC and Forsyth KC shows. Ch. Gleanntan Gotitxactlyrite - "Arnie" took Best of Breed the three days and earned a Group 3 placement on Friday under judge Mr. Frank Sabella and a Group 4 placement on Saturday under judge Mrs. Karen C. Wilson. Gleanntan Gettin' Busy - "Ellie" took Winners Bitch and Best of Opposite Sex on Friday and Saturday and Gleanntan Guardian Angel - "Gertie" took Winners Bitch and Best of Opposite Sex on Sunday under judge Lenora Riddle. Gertie is owned and adored by Judith Fatzinger.

On Saturday, following Best in Show competition, the Carolina Terrier Association held its second annual terrier puppy match. We entered 4-month old Gleanntan Gaelic Melody - "Keeleigh" in the 3 to 6 month class. Keeleigh had a fun time being a puppy, sometimes walking nicely on lead and other times not. Yes, working with the youngsters keeps you humble - but it is greatly rewarding as you envision their promise and potential. Here are a couple of photos of Keeleigh.

Here are a couple of photos from recent shows. The first is of Ch. Gleanntan Going South - "Rebel" on the occasion of his attaining his AKC Championship. The photo is dark, but I decided to include it here as it does convey what we admire in this dog. Rebel has beautiful length of body, length of neck, and head - exceptional balance. Rebel was handled to this Best of Winners win by Maida.

The second photo is of Ch. Gleanntan Gotitxactlyrite - "Arnie" taken after his Group 3 placement at the Back Mountain KC show. The judge is Mrs. Sue Weiss.

November 1, 2003 - Another Group 3 placement for Arnie

At the Back Mountain Kennel Club show in Bloomsburg, PA, Ch. Gleanntan Gotitxactlyrite took a Group 3 under judge Mrs. Sue Weiss. As is often the case as we approach the end of the year, the terrier group competition was strong. Group 1 went to the #1 Wire and Group 2 went to the #3 Smooth Fox who was Best in Show the day before. Group 4 went to the #3 Colored Bull Terrier. We were the only owner/handled terrier in the placements. At the Bald Eagle KC show the day before, Arnie took the breed and Ellie - Gleanntan Gettin' Busy took Winners Bitch for another point.

October 18-19, 2003 - Back-to-Back Group 3 placements

Maida, Roxan and I were at the Upper Potomac Kennel Club shows this weekend in beautiful, scenic Western Maryland. While this is not a huge show in terms of total entry, the group competition is always fierce as the end of the year approaches. On Saturday, Ch. Gleanntan Gotitxactlyrite took a Group 3 under judge Mr. D. Roy Holloway. Group 1 went to the #1 Wire in the U.S. handled by Peter Green, and Group 2 went to the #1 Amstaff in the U.S., handled by John McCartney. On Sunday, Ch. Gleanntan Gotitxactlyrite took another Group 3, this time under judge Denny Mounce. Group 1 again went to the Wire and Group 2 went to the #1 Norwich in the U.S.. We are proud to say that we were the #1 owner/handled terrier both days!

Also, on Saturday, Gleanntan Going South - "Rebel" earned the final point for his AKC Championship. We started working with this young dog just one year ago. He had earned 1 point from the Puppy class 2001 and then took some time off from the show ring. Rebel returned to the ring in August, 2003 and completed his AKC championship in just 10 shows over a period of just over two months.

October 6, 2003 - Skye Terrier Club of America National Specialty Weekend

Skye Terrier fanciers look forward to the national specialty weekend at Montgomery County Kennel Club with great anticipation. There are many reasons to attend this seminal weekend in the Philadelphia area. The weekend provides an opportunity to see the very best examples of Skyes from breeders across the United States. While the weekend is intense, information is shared and friendships are forged and strengthened.

Going into these shows, one can never predict what the outcome will be. The best you can do is to prepare your Skyes to the best of your ability, show them to the best of your ability, and then hope that your Skye(s) will be considered favorably by the judges. Any single win on this weekend, is considered to be a great honor.

We are indeed honored and proud of the showing of our Skye Terriers during this weekend. Here is a summary of our accomplishments. Photos will be added when they are received.
