REPORT ON THE LURE AND CONFORMATION EVENT OF JANUARY 21

Our event of January 21 held at the Apache Junction Rodeo grounds was a big success. At one time we counted 20 cars and we know we had at least 30 dogs and some puppies. The weather was perfect for running and the dogs had a great time.  

We wish to extend a special thanks to Tari Parish for coming and serving as judge for ASFA certification, and to Alice Wilson, our conformation judge, big thanks for her support. We all enjoyed the obedience exhibition thatLinda Auld presented with her Basenji. Thanks Linda!

We also wish to thank Montz Auto Renditions of Phoenix for supply us with a battery from Continental Batteries for use in the lure coursing event. The following Basenjis received their ASFA certification. "Janie" owned by Phil Whitaker, "Jester" owned by Robin Castillo, "Tico" owned by Bev Bland, "Siri" owned by Bev Bland and "Magick" owned by Wendy Eaglewolfe.
