This is Emily with her REW English buck- "Emily's Patronus". At 4 1/2 months old he has made Sr. weight and has been shown as a Sr. "Patronus" has everything we have been striving for in our English breeding program and the judges seem to agree! He has been shown only three times and all three times has taken Best of Breed. He is smooth, with no bones sticking out from shoulders to rump, and he is perfectly cobby and compact. "Patronus" should do very well for Emily at fair this next summer. And for you Harry Potter fans out there- yes "Patronus" is named straight from the books!
The little guy to the left is "Soren" a litter mate of "Patronus" from above. He, like his brother, is also three for three for Best of Breed wins. Pictured with "Soren" is me, Jackie, after our win at the MSRBA Fall Show. "Soren" is every bit as nice as his brother but he is honestly the messiest Angora I have had! If I can keep up with grooming this monster I have great hopes for him!
To the right is me with "Carpenter's Breloom". She has taken two Best of Breed wins between Mason and the MSRBA Fall Show. "Breloom" has the best coat I have ever seen but I would like to see more rise on her along with a bit more length. When she molts out I will be breeding her with a buck I bought especially to pair with her. I think she will throw me some stunning offspring!
