Welcome to our new area for posting show and other 'zoi-related happenings here at Gryffyn's Aeyrie. You can see more of our day-to-day news online at R. Lynn's blog, Gryffyn's Corner. To see where we will be going, visit
the Gryffyn's
Aeyrie Calendar page. We enjoy meeting people wherever we
go - so if you are going to be attending one of the events I
have listed, and would like to meet, feel free to contact

I decided to replace the "Show News" section of the website with a little online journal. I'll just post any show news plus other dog-news here and see how it goes. :)RLynn Posted by gryffyn @ 04:00 PM CST [Link]
December 6-9, 2007 Solo won Best of Breed the first two days. With bad weather coming in quickly (ICE!) Jill pulled entries for the rest of the weekend and came home. Better safe than sorry! December 2, 2007 Bugg won the Open class and then took Reserve Winners. December 1, 2007 With an entry of 23 dogs present, Solo received an Award of Excellence from judge Dr. Robert Indeglia!

November 15-18, 2007 Solo won Best of Breed 3 of the 4 days of this show cluster. Posted by gryffyn @ 10:38 PM CST [Link]
November 10-11, 2007 The BCOA's Trophy Supported Entry was on Saturday. We had a pretty good day with Arthur going Best in Veteran Sweeps (by default, being the only entry - but he had fun!). We had meant to debut two of the "Boogie Babies" - Wulf and Buster - but hard play in the yard had bruised them up and they weren't their best when gaiting [sigh]. Sometimes you just wanna wrap those puppies in bubble wrap to protect them. Bugg won the Open Bitch class and went on to take Winners Bitch! A shame that a pup that had been in Sweeps did not show up for the regular classes and broke the major. Solo went on to win Best of Breed and then won a Hound Group 1 under Prof. Doug Taylor!! We were beyond thrilled - his first Group 1 and still a baby!! Posted by gryffyn @ 07:15 PM CST [Link]
October 27-28, 2007 Solo won Best of Breed both days!
Solo won Best of Breed both days! October 13-14, 2007 On Saturday at TTKC Moose won Winners Dog for another point and Lars took Reserve from the BBE class. Solo won Best of Breed and then went on to win a Hound Group 3 under Dan Dowling (Velox Borzoi). Needless to say - a VERY exciting day for us! On Sunday, Moose again took Winners Dog and finished his championship! Solo won Best of Breed and then took a Group 2! Posted by gryffyn @ 06:57 PM CST [Link]
October 6-7, 2007 Moose was Reserve Winners Dog (to majors) both days. Fort Smith Kennel Club Solo won Best of Breed both days. Posted by gryffyn @ 06:05 PM CST [Link]
August 23-26, 2007 Solo won Best of Breed all 4 days. August 16-19, 2007 Solo won Best of Breed all 4 days. August 11-12, 2007 Solo won Best of Breed both days, and also won his FIRST Group placement! He was awarded a Group 3 by Mark Houston-McMillan. Posted by gryffyn @ 05:47 PM CST [Link]
July 11 - 15, 2007 Sassi was Best Opposite 3 of the 5 days. Moose was Reserve Winners Dog (to a major) the one day he was shown. Posted by gryffyn @ 05:41 PM CST [Link]
June 28 - July 1, 2007 The first day Sassi won Best Opposite. The 2nd day Solo won Best of Breed. The third day of the show cluster was Saturday, and Victor was in attendance with Bugg - and it was just not their weekend. Although on Saturday Solo won the breed and Sassi was Best Opp to him (bookends!). On Sunday, Sassi won Best Opposite, and Solo just enjoyed himself. June 23-24, 2007 Moose won his class both days. Solo won Best of Breed on Sunday, which was great since that was the judge that I hoped would still like him (Elliott Weiss), even though I was the one handling him! June 16 - 17, 2007 Moose was entered Saturday only and won his class, and that was it. Solo won Best of Breed both days. Posted by gryffyn @ 08:56 PM CST [Link]
May 25-28, 2007 Solo attended the shows with David, coming away Best of Breed the final 2 days. May 12-13, 2007 Moose didn't fare well, going 3/3 and 3/4 each day. Bugg was 4th of 8 on Saturday and invisible on Sunday. Sassi won Best of Breed (out of 17 present) and Best Opposite Sex on Sunday. Posted by gryffyn @ 08:47 PM CST [Link]
April 27 - 29, 2007 Sassi won breed all three days, despite being in her "skivvies". She then also went on to win a Group 2 under judge Ken Miller at the Saturday show! April 21 - 22, 2007 Sassi went out with Jill while we were in Rhode Island, winning Best of Breed all days. April 6 - 8, 2007 Solo attended with Jill and came away with 2 Best of Breed wins on the higher entry days. Posted by gryffyn @ 08:38 PM CST [Link]
March 31 - April 1, 2007 Solo went to Claremore with Jill and won Best of Breed both days, although nothing in the group. Brazos Valley Kennel Club I traveled down to Navasota for this set of shows, with Moose coming away Reserve Dog both days. It wasn't a total loss, as I discovered never to bother entering under either of the judges again!
This was actually a 2-day cluster, but we only showed on Saturday. Our only entry on Sunday was Kalina, but she had cut her pad earlier in the week and was still slightly off (although she managed not to get excused in her class). Kalina won her class of one; Bugg was 2nd of 5 and Deckard 4th of 5 (acting like a fool - but at least he beat somebody!). Our largest success was Sassi winning Best Opposite.
