We took 6 dogs for eye exams on Friday 26th March. All of them passed with a clear bill of eye health:
Bijou, Caesar, Tycho, M, Skye & our Aussie – Nitro.
Caesar wins WD/BOW three days running!

This last weekend we went to the shows in Edison, NJ where Caesar won BOW every day and even won BOS over 3 specials on the Friday, for another 6 points! This boy is on a roll!

On Saturday, March 13th, Caesar won his first AKC major with Best of Winners (out of the 9-12 month puppy class), as well as Best Puppy and a Puppy Group 4 (in a very competitive puppy working group). Yeah, Caesar!!

Vega & Tycho get OFA Good Hips!
Posted By Karyn on February 8, 2010
We x-rayed Vega for her official OFA results & she came back OFA Good hips and Normal elbows :-D.
We also did Tycho’s hips for prelims (since he is not quite 2 years) prior to breeding with M – he came back OFA Good 😀
More UKC success…
Posted By Karyn on January 26, 2010
This last weekend we went to our first show of the year in South Jersey & made up another UKC Grand Champion and a UKC Champion. We now have a full complement of UKC Champions in our kennel :-). So Star became:
AM/CAN/U-GRCH NYRAKYM’S STAR OF SAMALJANKAN
while Caesar is now:
UKC CH NYRAKYM’S MOMENT OF GLORY SAMALJANKAN
Yeah!!!!!
Also, huge congrats to our friends Mickie & Muncy who made up their girl Monet to be a UKC Champion at the same shows. Way to go, Monet, Mickie & Muncy – nice work! 😀
Nitro gets his first major!!
Posted By Karyn on December 15, 2009
On Saturday Nitro won a 5 point major by winning BOW at our last show of the year. He has just celebrated his 2nd birthday and is developing very nicely. Obviously the judge thought so too….. 🙂
Ottawa Kennel Club Show
Posted By Karyn on December 1, 2009
Over Thanksgiving weekend we took a trip up to Canada to take part in the Ottawa KC show in Kemptville. Our last trip of the year in the motorhome. We met up with Bugsy’s breeder/co-owner & got some points on our dogs. Unfortunately we didn’t quite manage to get Bugsy finished – he needs only 1 (ONE) more point :-(. Oh well, I guess that just means we have to go back up to Canada…..
We can’t complain, though – we won WD, WB, BOW, BOS & BOB every day. Bijou won 3 points over the weekend and Caesar won 2, while Bugsy got just 3 (not the 4 he needed).
Virginia weekend/AMCA National Week
Posted By Karyn on November 14, 2009
The weekend before the AMCA National week we went down to Virginia to a couple of supported entry shows. We took the motorhome and made a weekend of it. The weather was not very cooperative but nevertheless, we had a very successful weekend with the dogs (although the motorhome did get beat up a bit by a neighbouring pop-up!!
So, for the shows – we got two 4-point majors on our little red girl, Bijou and a Grand Sweeps win on our sable boy, Caesar. thanks very much to Dennis Collins (Kahoutec). Our Bugsy also got his second major so only needed singles to finish in the US.
So we went on to the AMCA National week in Gettysburg. At the regional, under Wendy Willhauck, our Bugsy won Winners Dog for his last points & became an AKC Champion!!Woo-hoo!! What a blast! THANK YOU, Wendy, for thinking so highly of our Bugsy boy!
Meanwhile our puppies did themselves proud by placing in every single class they were entered in except Bijou who didn’t place in the futurity. Star did very well in the regional winning her veteran class and in the National she made it all the way to the very last moment where she just missed out on an Award of Merit. A bit of a disappointment at the end but she really did great!!
