CONGRATULATIONS ARGUS

Over the Labor Day weekend Argus participated in six shows. He won 1 Reserve Winners Dog, 5 Winners Dog, and 3 Best Of Winners. This is quite an acomplishment for a 13 months old to beat full grown adult Shiloh males. When he won the 3 Best of Winners he had to go in the show ring with all the male and female Champions. He earned enough points this weekend to become a
Jr Champion. We are very proud of him.

CONGRTULATIONS TO ARABELLA'S PUPPIES

This past weekend May 2 & 3 our local Shiloh club the ISSDC sponsered a Nationals dog show. Abba's Kennels was represented by three of Arabella's puppies. A big CONGRATULATIONS goes out to them for doing so well.

SAT SHOW

Abba's Georgy Girl 2yrs old Arabella/Nico daughter won :
Reserve Winners Bitch

Mighty Argus Guardian of Abba 10 months old Arabella/Elvis son won :
Junior Puppy Winners Dog
Best Jr Puppy IN Specialty

Abba's Katy Mae 10 month old Arabella/Elvis daughter took 4th place in the 9-12 months catagory.

SUN SHOW

Abba's Georgy Girl took 2nd place in the Novice class

Abba's Katy Mae won :
Jr Puppy Winners Bitch
Reserve Winners Bitch

Might Argus Guardian Of Abba won :
Jr Puppy Winners Dog
Best Jr Puppy in Specialty
Winners Dog

On Sun Argus and Katy had to compete against each other for Best Jr Puppy in Speciality since they both won in their catagories. I wish I had been able to take a picture of them in the ring together, but unfortunately it was pouring down rain.

Since Argus won the male puppies he had to go up against all the adult male winners for best male dog in the show. Lo and behold 10 month old Argus beat out all the adult males to take home the title Winners Dog. He then proceded to the next round which included all the Champion male and females and the two dogs that just won Winners Dog and Winners Bitch from this show to compete for Best in Show. He didn't win but what an accomplishment for a 10 month old to make it that far.

So to Georgie, Katy and Argus Abba's Shilohs wishes you a BIG CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!

Arabella wants to send her puppies a big slurpy kiss.

Let me know if any of your puppies are doing anything you are proud of so I can post it on this blog. It doesn't have to be showing your pups Just something to brag about your fur babies

Prayer Shawls For Veterans Needed

Hi everyone I just wanted to ask if any of you that reads my blog knows how to knit or crochet. If you do a friend of mine who is a minister is collecting prayer shawls for veterans. If you would be interested in helping out and could make a prayer shawl, please email me at
michelle-abbasshilohs@comcast.net I will be happy to send you the directions on how to make them, the colors needed and where to send them and several prayes you can choose from to pray while you are making them.

If you don't know what a prayer shawl is, let me explain. A prayer shawl is usually made for a person in need, sick, depressed etc. They are made with love and a prayer for the person that is to receive it.

One was given to me and to this day when I wear it I still feel alot of comfort just knowing that someone cared enough to make it with love and a special prayer for God to comfort me. It's just a little thing but has helped so many people.

So if you would be interested let me know. They aren't that big so they won't take very long to make. Thanks again and I hope many of you reading this will find it in your heart to help out.

Thanks
Michelle Wirrell
Abba's Shilohs
