New Champion — CH Luminary Black Velvet Bejeweled With Pearls


This is Pearl at PCA last April where she placed thired in a very competitive 12-18 mo class. She finished today — my new champ — which also completes the showing of the four Velvet/Spencer babies. Velvet became a Top Producer when Questo finished the weekend afte PCA. She needed three but I showed four to hedge my bets. Yay — opening champagne!!!

    Oh, thank you Fr. Scott. Such kind words. Next to come home will be Questo though — soon if he doesn’t “rock-n-roll” for a Grand Championship or hopefully in a month or so with it. By the way, I saw the picture of Julia Maria that Julia took when she babysat her recently. Oh my she is beautiful!!!

    Victoria, Julia Maria is the fruit of your work in fostering good health, temperament and beauty in your breeding program. I went to Maryland for an alumni reunion and wanted Julia Maria to have a reuion with her mother, aunts and one sibling. Julia surely has done a great job with them, and they enjoyed each other. Julia Maria loves all types of people, from elderly to children and various races. JM could have been a champion, she is a champ in the hearts of jose who know her. She is a great companion for me. I owe you, and especially Julia Swartz, an abiding debt of gratitude.

    Congratulations, Victoria! Wishing you the best in the continued success of your poodles. I know how much they mean to you. Those Luminary poodles are so special with such divine temperaments. I can hardly wait until the time is right for another!
