I started breeding purebred dogs in 1965 with Norwegian Elkhounds. I did Obedience and Conformation with success. In 1975 I was introduced to the Kerry Blue Terrier and that was my passion. I bred and exhibited them for over 30 years. I have had Sealyham Terriers, Pugs, Whippets and Akitas. I had a Basset I showed to his championship and I was doing agility with him, however, I lost him to cancer last fall. He had one agility title. I also have another Whippet along with her sister as house pets. I have been judging Terriers for the past 16 years.
