He is now officially the number one smooth-coat chihuahua in Thailand, again. It means Baron: Am.Th.Ch. Marlisa's Dancin Away Baron, has been the number one smooth-coat chihuahua for two years in a row, that is, in 2008 and 2009.
May I pay courtesy to all the judges who saw the outstanding talent of Baron in the past two years. I also pay courtesy to the competitors in Thailand, which in this year, the competition was very tough. There were many beautiful dogs, both domestic and imported, showing. I have to admit that those chihuahuas really were great.
While Baron was showing, there was not a single day that I did not think of Jane G. Kay, Matt Nicosia, Erika Lanasa, and Prayoon Wijakhanawut.
Heartful thanks, again, to Jane G. Kay, my dear friend and mentor. Without you, Baron would not have had the destiny of travelling to Thailand to make a name for Saiyai Doghome.
Matt Nicosia, my great friend, and the great breeder, who neatly bred Baron. Matt is humble, even while he has bred Baron among other chihuahuas of such quality, he still says he's normal and thanked me for doing a good job for Baron, always. Matt, I am the one who has to thank you. And I will thank you for the rest of my life.
Erika Lanasa, the amazing handler who trained and showed Baron until he finished his American Championship at the Westminster show in Februay 2008, before Baron flew to Thailand. I cannot use the limited space here, to explain how devoted Erika was to Baron while she was showing him. I need not mention how great she is at the handling profession. What you have done for Baron will be a big beautiful spot in my heart, forever.
Prayoon Wijakhanawut, my close friend, my handler. You are someone I meet almost everyday, and in everyday you work with Baron and my other dogs, in the past two years, I always smile when I think about it. I've never had to suffer from any the hard and difficult work of training and showing dogs because he carried all the burden. He's rewarded by being the person responsible for making Baron to become the number one smooht-coat chihuahua for two years running.
After Matt, we have to thank the super parents:
Sire: Am.Ch. Marlisa's Athame Dancin JJ Dam: Marlisa's Dancin Hot Savanah
Look at what you've produced. It must have been a production of love. The more proud I am of Baron, the more thankful I am of these super parents.
