National Specialty Show
April, 2009
Our Kuvasz National
Specialty Show was judged by
Ms. Pat Hastings. Double Ring Shokufeye
Zibayenum ( Ziba ) won a major under Ms. Hastings and went on to win another major
later in the weekend under Judge Charlotte McGowan. Ziba goes back home to
Pennsylvania on the 10th. I’m sure they will be glad to get her back with both
of her majors behind her.
Also on the specialty weekend, our
Holland import,
Cezár Harcos v.d. Viersenhoeve,
was RWD one day and WD for a major under Judge Charlotte McGowan.
Champion Double Ring Tarees Dream Dancer
(Zury) was
Best of Opposite Sex under
Judge Michelle Billings during the Specialty Show weekend. Zury was shown by 16 year-old Ashley Resener. Way to go Ashley and Zury!!! There were many nice
compliments about Zury from other exhibitors and observing judges.

Diesel went Best of Winners on Friday at the Dayton

behind his dad, Cargo, and with limited showing!
At the same two shows, Diesel's litter sister, Double Ring Tarees Dream
Dancer ( aka
Zury )

continued his winning ways, earning multiple Best of
Breed wins and group placement, owner handled, to end

Double Ring Tarees Dream Machine, aka Diesel,
beat his dad for a point the first time he entered

Cezár Harcos v.d. Viersenhoeve won his first
major at Missouri shows in May. He was Reserve
Winners Dog at the 2008 National Kuvasz Specialty and Best
of Opposite Sex in Sweepstakes. Cezár came to us
from Holland in November. In just a short time he
has melted many human hearts. He loves to show and
will be a great addition to our breeding
program.
Congrats to new Champion, CH.Double Ring Rebel Ridge
Waterford ("aka Crystal")
Thank you to co-breeders and co-owners, Tony & Robin Miller, for
helping to find Crystal's last major. Health issues have kept us
close to home this season, and their help in completing Crystal's championship is greatly
appreciated.
Our bright and shining star, "Crystal," finished her championship under an
International Judge, Ms. Edna Gonzalez!
Crystal is a great dog. Her temperament is
excellent. She naturally migrates to people who she
thinks might "need" her. Her level of
confidence shines in the show ring and outside of
it.
Her immediate future will include some more shows as
a Champion and next year might find her in the
whelping box with her first litter. Suitable sires
will be sized up in the meantime!

Congrats to new champion,
CH Double Ring Tsar Nicholas (aka "Nicki")
Nicki finished his championship in supported competition in Columbus, OH shows by going Winners Dog and Best of Winners.

2007 National
Specialty
This year’s 2007 National
Specialty show was special in a lot of ways...
The trip through the
Allegheny and
Blue Ridge Mountains was breathtaking. The
Holiday Inn in Hampton, VA was a great place to
stay. New friends, and old friends, from as far away
as California, Washington, Maine and Florida came to
the event. The camaraderie was great.
And last, but not least, this
year’s judge was retired Kuvasz breeder,
Linda Lloyd. The usual
specialty judges are AKC All-Breed judges. This was
the first time the show has been judged by an
experienced Kuvasz
breeder who is also a judge.
Dorie
Engstrom, also a retired Kuvasz breeder,
judged the sweepstakes.
When all was said and done, Double Ring Kuvasz came away with the
following wins:
Best In
Sweepstakes – Double Ring Centerfold, aka
Bunny (see her page
here)
Best Veteran In Sweepstakes – Ch Double Ring Moon
Shadow, aka Max. Max also won
Best of Opposite Sex to the
Best of Breed winner on 3 out of 4 days – all from the veteran class. The
one day Max was defeated, it was by Ch Double Ring
Peterbilt, aka Cargo.
Winners
Bitch & Best of Winners – Double Ring Rebel
Ridge Waterford, aka
Crystal
Reserve
Winners Dog – Double Ring Tarees Zodiac, aka
Aries. Aries went on to earn Winners Dog for 3
major wins over the weekend.

Merit – Ch Double Ring Peterbilt, aka
Cargo
Cargo also took Best Opposite
Sex (May 28, 2007) under
Judge Barbara Dempsey Alderman, while Cargo's daughter (Ch
Rebel Ridge Southern Beauty) took Best of Breed!

Tarees Dream Dancer (aka
Zury)
Zury is owned and handled by Ashley Resener.
Best Bred

Best
Veteran – Ch Double Ring Moonlight Serenade (aka Sera).
Sera was handled by 14 year-old Junior Handler,
Ashley Resener. Ashley
and Sera pulled off a really big win on May 27 under
Judge Charlotte Clem McGowan by going Best of
Breed. Sera may be a veteran, but she is
still quite the show girl.
