We are finally home and settled after an incredible National! It was such a joy to reconnect with dear friends and forge new connections within the Aussie community.
I couldn’t be more proud of how our dogs performed. Without further ado, here is our official wrap-up:
👑Wink👑 had a stellar showing, winning Best in Veteran Sweepstakes under Mr. Jamie Clute and placing in a highly competitive Veterans class.

🤠Ariat🤠 was truly exceptional, winning the Bred-By class under Mr. Dana Cline, the largest class entry of bi***es at the National! I am so proud of her, and a huge thank you to Clare for letting her come out to play.

🌎Atlas🌍 in only his third show ever, he handled the atmosphere so well. He earned a Select in Futurity under Mrs Tina Beck and made the cuts in Sweepstakes. I am thrilled with this young dog’s potential.

🍷Lush🍾 was a good girl and made it all the way to the final cut of bi***es! We’re so proud of this lovely girl and we are looking forward to her future (AKC/ASCA CH Emerald Isle Intoxicating, Swayed x HOF Wink)
🐻Paddington🐻 was a rockstar and caught the eye of many admirers. We are eagerly looking forward to picking up that final major on this stunning boy. And, we’ll have a fun announcement coming about this handsome guy later 😉 (CIB CIBj ChCZ ChCMKU ChPl JchCZ BIS3 JBIS AKC major pointed Bright Touch Flying High)
A massive congratulations to Shelly Hollen for winning the 9–12 month class with Atlas’s brother, Fox! We also want to celebrate Brenda Moore for taking 3rd in Brood Bitch with Jucy, supported by her lovely Reef kids. And we are so proud of Omen and how well he showed for his mom, Jade. We expect great things from them!
Congratulations to all the winners! We are feeling immensely proud and deeply grateful 💙
