Flash: June 2010 Sofia is hoovering around the top in the rankings for the beginning
of the year - we are thrilled!
Sofia was purchased from Sylvia Hammarstrom of
Skansen fame in May of 2005. The 5 month old captured the eye of Roger Rechler and he bought her from us. Sofia resides with
us here in South Salem and Anna co-owns and handles her. Sofia has developed into a lady that has the power and strength of
a bull and beauty and grace of the Giant bitch that she is! She is already a multiple groupwinner and has many inportant breed
wins under her belt. She is a breed and group placer at Westchester KC three times in her young life and she is a three
time breed winner at Trenton. She received an Award Of Merit at the eastern regional in 2006 at a year and a half. She was
the ONLY award of Merit to Spirit's Best of Breed at Westminster Kennel Club 2009. She is sired by Skansen's Winston Churchill
our of Skansen's Zephyra - both champions. She is the queen of the house and can do anything to all the boys. Including daddy!
Glory and Amelia gladly lets her lead them! Sofia has occasionally been shown by Vanessa Fleming, Kristing Karboski and Stacy
Snyder.
