Best Puppy Working Group 1 Golden Gate Judge Paula Nykeil Mrs. Nykeil was wondering why she didn't win breed!!  Thank you Ms. Nykeil for such kind words about our puppy.  Thanks to all the folks that waited around so late to see Danni in Best Puppy.  She came up just short.  Elizabeth and I were honored to have so many folks meet her on the bench and then cheer for her when she went out for that final exam.	3-Point Major Reserve Breeder Judge Cathy De La Garza This picture is just 7 days removed from Danni being at UC Davis.  You can see her shaved patches on her legs.  She won her first major the next day under respected Judge Robert Ennis.  Unfortunately, that picture did not turn out.  Thank you Cathy and Mr. Ennis for seeing through to our on-the-mend puppy!!
