Two cute brothers

I just wanted to post a photo of these two cute black and tan cavalier brothers as they waited to get ready for the dog shows in Albany.

Truman is attending his first dog show now that he is 6 months – we just hope he doesn’t wiggle too much on the table and isn’t scared walking around the ring. Our goal is for him to have fun out there. Truman is the son of Arrow and Blake (CH Orchard Hill True Enough).

Sirius is so close to finishing his Grand CH title. We are hoping this weekend might be it. 🙂 He is the son of Arrow and Loki (CH Embee’s Mischief Mismanaged)

Top 10 Beagle “Dam of the year”

I am thrilled to announce that the Show Beagle Quarterly came out today and Madison (aka CH Foxtail’s Dreaming of the Race) was part of the 2018 top 10 dams of the year in beagles. She made the list with some other beautiful bitches in our breed so I am very proud of my precious girl.

Maybe this year she will give me a final litter of puppies? 🙂 What do you think?

Sirius gets OH Group 3

Our first dog show for the year.

The Albany Dog shows started with a Bang with Sirius getting Select Dog, Best Of Breed Owner Handler and then Owner Handler Group 3. Thank you to judge Mrs Eva E Berg in breed and judge Mrs. Karen J Scholz in OH Group.

He just has a couple of points to finish his grand CH title – will it be this weekend? I guess we will find out 🙂

Well done Sirius and Alisha!

New CH Vixen

What an amazing finish to 2018!

Miss Vixen is now “CH Hailstorms Feeling a little Foxy at Kazuri”. She was whelped on Christmas eve two years ago with her co-breeder and co-owners Mike and Karen Kurtzner and we couldn’t be prouder of this little girl.

She finished in style with her 3rd major – her second 5 point major actually, under lovely judge Mr John Wade.

My good friend Sarah Yates showed her at the Greater Clark County Kennel Club in Vancouver WA as I was up in Vancouver BC at a family Christmas event, and I was so thrilled they were able to finish as a team together.

Thank you to all the judges who recognized our little girl. Her next job will hopefully be to show us what she can do in the whelping box sometime in 2019.

This is Kazuri’s 4th Beagle CH for 2018.

What a year!

New CH River!

Kazuri beagles had a wonderful weekend at the Stockton shows in California.

I am proud to announce that River is now CH Kazuri’s River of Dreams. He won Winners Dog/Best of Winners under lovely judge Ms. Elizabeth Muthard on Friday.

Then this morning he was Winners Dog/Best of Winners under Mr Charles L. Olvis. Both wins got him 2 points towards his CH.

River’s biggest win of the weekend was at the Stockton Beagle Specialty though on Sunday morning, where he took Winners Dog from a beautiful line up of Bred By Exhibiter dogs, as well as the rest of the entries for a 5 point major. This was under esteemed breeder judge Mrs Karen A. Ropp. He also went on to win Best Bred By Exhibiter in Show.

All of his points have been from the Bred By class. I couldn’t be prouder! Thank you to Mike Kurtzner and Karen Kurtzner who co-bred and co-own this fun boy and always present him so beautifully.

New CH Emmy!

Kazuri beagles had a great start to the Stockton shows in California. I am proud to announce that Emmy is now CH Kazuri’s Dreaming of an Emmy. She won Winners Bitch for 2 points finally finishing her title. She just needed 1 single to finish. I couldn’t be prouder especially since it was only 9 weeks after she had puppies!

Thank you to Mike Kurtzner and Karen Kurtzner who co-bred and co-own this sweet girl and presented her so beautifully.



(This photo was not from this show – unfortunately her win shot did not turn out)

Sirius becomes a daddy

We are so excited to announce the safe arrival of our boy CH LockeStar ‘Cause I’m Up To No Good, CGCA TKN – Sirius’ first litter of 3 girls! We just love this boy to bits and wish the breeder of his litter well (she dosnt want to be announced publicly at this time). We can’t wait to watch how they grow!

Sirius is fully health tested including his CHIC, he is clear for CC/DE and EF, and is MRI scanned. Although he carries the “Lockestar” Affix, he was bred by myself Sarah Wilson Sweetman, Alisha Lockleer and is owned by us alongside Susan Lockleer.

New CH Leo!

I am pleased to announce that Leo is now CH Kazuri’s Hear Me Roar. He decided to be an overachiever, getting a 3rd major for himself, and going Best of Winners on Saturday under judge William Sahloff.

A huge thank you to Tammie John Sommerson-Wilcox who showed him when I couldn’t be there and to Alisha Lockleer and Susan Lockleer for being my transport.

I also want to thank the Portolese family for being such incredible owners of Leo – you have done a great job training him and providing a loving home for him, but still let me show him. I appreciate all of your support so much.
