When I got my first Welsh Terrier in 1998, she came to me with a breeder’s agreement to complete her championship and two puppies back to the breeder. I thought “no problem,” but keep in mind I had never even been to a dog show much less raised a litter. Tracy, who handled Sharon’s dogs, was recommended as a handler. It was a fortuitous meeting and the beginning of friendships that have developed into a long-standing successful partnership. The first dog show I ever attended was the 1999 “Muddy Montgomery.” I was beyond thrilled to have my Welshie win second in the 12-18 class. After ten years of hard work and dedication, Sharon and I with our combined pedigrees produced our first MBIS, MBISS GCH Bayleigh Shaireab’s Super Hero. “Spyder” is also the first Welsh Terrier Grand Champion.
