July 18th PVSSC Specialty
Overcoming the plague (COVOID-19) and extreme heat, the PVSSC held our annual Speciality–a heroic feat since shows in 2016 and 2018 were cancelled due to weather conditions. This was a package show and only Standard Schnauzers were shown. However, we had a large, competitive entry. Best of Breed came out of the Veterans class: the 7 year old male, GCHB HALCYON’S BE THE CHANGE YOU WISH TO SEE CGC. Best of Opposite Sex was the comparatively younger lady, 2-year old GCH BLUE LINE’S BLUE DEVIL. For complete results, see:
