Hailey

Stonepine Silk Kimono, owned by Joanne Prada is not only gorgeous, but she has quite a few brags and titles!

"Hailey earned her 3rd. Novice FAST leg for her NF title with a 1st. place. She earned her 2nd. Open Jumpers leg with a 1st. place. She also earned her 2nd. Open Standard leg with a 1st. place. Therefore, Hailey is now officially Stonepine Silk Kimono, AKC/ASCA CD, RE, NA, NAJ, NF. I may enter her in one more trial before year end and maybe she can finish one of her Open titles. She is a stunning agility dog with a strong work ethic."

"Did you receive my last e-mail of a few weeks ago about Hailey being ranked as No. 1 for Novice A Agility in the latest Aussie Journal? I wanted to be sure you saw that as she may be overthrown from the No. 1 spot before the year is over. She is also ranked as No. 2 for Novice A Jumpers in that issue.
