New Champions - Gibbs and Bella!

What a great weekend in Palm Springs! Gibbs (new Ch. Topsails After Hours High Five) finished with his third major at the Sporting Dog show on Friday. Gus (GCh. Topsails After Hours Smoke N Mirrors) was Select Dog to finish his Bronze Grand Championship on Friday as well. Bella (new Ch. After Hours Topsails High Gear) finished with her fourth major on Saturday. On Sunday, Gibbs was Select Dog in a major entry. This makes four champions from the Peyton x Kat litter at just over 18 months of age!

New Champion Sawyer!

Sawyer (Topsails After Hours Sky High) finished with his 5th major! Brother Gibbs (Topsails After Hours High Five) won his 2nd major the next day.  He and sister Bella (After Hours Topsails High Gear) both need just a few singles to finish.  We are so proud of this outstanding litter!
