News & Recent Wins
2010
This is the year to simply enjoy spending time with all of our dogs and
especially the two new puppies from the Christmas litter of December
2009. Our Ch. Cash of Limerick, who has only been shown a handful of
times this year, was awarded back to back best of breeds at the
Golden Gate Kennel Club show in January going on to a Group 4 and
then a Group 1 on the second day. He also had a lovely breed win
earlier in the month of January at the Kennel Club of Palm Springs all
breed show under breeder judge Jacqueline Carswell which always
draws a quality entry of Irish Wolfhounds. Cash was also awarded a
nice best of breed win at the Lompoc Valley Kennel Club show the day
after the IWAWC specialty in July. This was also a particularly strong
entry coming off the specialty the day before.
Cash was most recently award best of opposite sex at the Western
Washington Hound Show under breeder judge Donna Brown.
2009
We were beginning to lose hope that we would have our next
planned litter in 2009. Then along came our dear friend Jackie
Carswell who allowed Ch. Carnasserie Grayson of Eagle to join our
household. Grayson presented us with a beautiful litter of seven
puppies on 12 /21/09. It was the best Christmas present imaginable
Thus we called them our Christmas litter. We chose Limerick Frosty The
Showman and Limerick Jingle All The Way to remain with us.
2008
Much of 2008 was spent watching many of the youngsters from our
2006 "Tennis Litter" finishing their championships around the country.
Seven are now champions from the litter of twelve.
2007
Limerick had a wonderful kickoff to the year! Through a very windy
Inland Empire Hound Club, our beautiful Cash of Limerick was Winners
Dog for a 5 point major under breeder judge Beverly Little!
Unfortunately, the show was cancelled prior to the breed for safety
reasons. The following days at The Kennel Club of Palm Springs, our
wonderful Ch. Brolie Duchas of Limerick was Best of Breed both days!
Brolie was also Best of Breed and earned a Group First the second day
of Golden Gate Kennel Club! It was fabulous way for Brolie to finish his
campaign, and we thank Mrs. Jeanette McGinnis for her consideration
of Brolie!
For the balance of this year Limerick will be spending time
concentrating on our promising youngsters!
UPDATE - Ch. Cash of Limerick earns his championship at nine months of
age under Mr. Frank Sabella! Cash is one of a litter of 12, many of
which are major pointed from the puppy classes!
Limerick Come See About Me (Whippet) had an amazing second
weekend out winning a 3 point major from the 6-9 puppy class under
Diane Young McCormack! She was Reserve Winners bitch the following
day under Mr. David Miller. What a way to start!
