Spice is a beautiful red and white female with clear black eyes and half-mask face. At the age of four months we knew she was definitely show-quality and very flashy with all the hallmarks of a future Champion. And we were right. We began showing Spice in May 2005 and finished her in August 2006. Her sire is Ch. Cherokee Legend Crazy Horse and her dam is Ch. Empire's Cleopatra.

Spice began her show career at four months with a fourth place win in her first puppy match. Fifteen months later she finished at the Muncie, Indiana KC show. She knows exactly what to do when she steps in the ring and she loves to be there. Her favorite thing is to be in Group competition with everyone cheering her on.

Spice won an Award of Merit at the Westminster Kennel Club show in February 2007. She was expertly handled by Luis Arenas. Luis did a wonderful job with her in the ring. We can't thank him enough.

Spice has appeared in several Indianapolis-area newspapers and on two different television stations, WXIN Fox 59 and WTHR Channel 13.

Spice was recently featured in an article about holistic pet nutrition in the Fall 2008 issue of Lafayette Magazine.



Our heartfelt thanks to Luis Arenas for expertly handling Spice at Westminster 2007 where she won an Award of Merit.
