Crush is our newest member of the family. After a home fell through we decided maybe it was fate, and we decided to keep her. She is a lively, bossy little gal who likes to have the last word. Audrey is a co-breeder and co-owner on this puppy and we look forward to seeing them in the ring together in the spring.

Crush has a good start as a baby puppy, winning the Baby Puppy group under sporting dog judge Gordon Hayburn over a large entry of baby puppies. Her first weekend showing in the regular classes she went Best of Winners over her brother Walker for her first point. Crush picked up several points at the Scarborough KC show in early April by going Winners every day, she also earned points at the Guelph and District KC show. She has already won Best of Breed over specials twice now, her most recent was at the Victoria County Kennel Club show in Lindsay, On. This win was under respected sporting dog breeder and judge Tom Alexander, who just could not stop talking about how much he loved her. This win finished her Championship, and she is not yet 8 months old!

Crush has been shown occasionally this summer and picked up a point or two toward her Grand Championship. She attended our National Specialty on September 6 2025, the day after her first birthday, and under a breeder judge she was awarded Best of Opposite Sex. This was a huge win for her, both in points and prestige. The following day at the all-breed show she picked up Select Bitch, giving her a few more points for her Grand. Her litter brother Walker made the final 3 dog specials in the National out of the 12 male specials in attendance.

Crush travelled to New Brunswick at the end of September to attend a 5 day cluster of shows, there she earned Best of Breed 6 times and completed her Novice Sprinter title.

Crush finished her Grand Championship at the Georgina KC show in Lindsay, ON on November 15th 2025, then earned her first Bronze points the next day with a nice BOB, and followed that with a Select win at the Aurora KC dog show on November 23rd. Crush was also part of our 4 dog breeder team at the Royal Canin Breeder Classic. She along with her siblings Jelly, Walker and Tucker helped us finish in the top 8 out of 34 lovely teams.
