Elo and Louise were…

…wonderful at Westminster. After the breed competition we all went to our place in the benching area. For the entire day Louise stood and talked to people about the Xolo Breed and never lost her smile and gentle demeanor. She was amazing and so was Elo. Being taken out of her crate dozens of times and handled by total strangers was fine with her and she took it all in stride, like a real veteran. What an amazing pair they were. Wonderful ambassadors for our breed!!!

…of my favorite “Xolo Duenas.” Shirley Lundy is in her 80’s and still does rally and obedience training with her dogs. Here she is pictured with her standard hairless female Xolo, “Roca.” When I spoke with Shirley on the phone recently she expressed that she sends her love and best wishes to all her Xolo friends….and wishes that we could get together more often.
