Multiple Best In Show and Best In Specialty Winning
“Redford”
BIS, SBIS Ch. Chelsea Made You Look of Sage, JC
(Ch. Chelsea Gold Rush of Keynote, SC x Sage Simply Outrageous)
Special dogs are born, but must also be raised to be great. “Redford” is certainly an example of this. “Redford” was born to be special, he had all the “right stuff”. He was special as a puppy and matured into a beautiful representative of his breed. We wish to extend a special thank you to all of the judges who have recognized his wonderful dog and extend our appreciation to everyone who helped raise “Redford” to be special.
Record for 2000
40 - Group First
3 - All Breed Best In Show
2 - AWC BestIin Show
Award of Merit - AWC National Specialty
Award of Merit - AWC Midwest Specialty
Best of Opposite Sex - Westminster Kennel Club
Sire of 8 Champions in 2000
The response to “Redford” from breeders, hound authorities and all-arounders has been very enthusiastic. “Redford” has been successful winning under specialty judges and all-breed judges alike. “Redford” is very keen on the lure himself, with several of his “kids” very near earning thier ASFA Field Championship - this we are very proud of.
“Redford”, truly is a dog that appeals to many on several different levels.

A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
2000 has been a good year for the American Whippet Club. We once again had a record breaking entry at the National Specialty which was held in Pennsylvania. There were 656 entered in breed competition, 122 in the Futurity, 61 in Obedience and 66 in Agility. We also held a race meet and a coursing meet which will be remembered for the snowy weather! Of course the week was filled with all of the other usual “National events” and I would encourage any of you who have not been fortunate to attend a National Specialty to put it on your list of “to do”. It is a wonderful week of good fun and beautiful Whippets! It is also the venue for the Annual Club meeting which I feel members should attend and participate in. The club is continuing to grow in numbers as we see our breed become more popular. It is every member’s responsibility to be an advocate for the breed and to help protect the health of the breed. We have a Code of Ethics which addresses this and I would encourage every person who is breeding or considering breeding their Whippets to reread the Code of Ethics and abide by it. We all should be dedicated to halting the sale of Whippets in pet shops and by commercial breeders.
The club has made some changes in 2000 which I believe will benefit the membership. The change with the most impact is the initiation of the “Conference Call Board Meeting”. This has been an effective way of carrying on Club business and it opens the option of holding Board office without undertaking large personal expenses. We are also adding a fifth region to our Club which will encompass “middle America” and will add a fifth Regional Specialty. This will certainly make attending a regional Specialty a shorter trip for many of our members! This change will be finalized in 2001. The membership called for a change in the ROM/ROMX program and with due process and membership input the changes were made and the new program will be in effect beginning 2002.
Our Rescue program continues to be the best in the country and Chairman Peggy Bush is being asked to assist other breed clubs in making their programs work as well! Thank you to all our Rescue Volunteers nation wide!
I want to thank the Board of Directors for their time and energy devoted to the club. It has been an honor to serve this club on the Board and as your Secretary and President. The backbone of any organization is its membership and the Board is the mouthpiece for the membership. So continue to support the Board with your input and lets continue working for the breed we all love.

The Arizona Whippet Association was formed in Aug of 2000 by a core group of 16 people experienced in breeding, showing, racing and coursing. Our membership went over 30 within the first two months. In Oct of 2000, we had our first Fun Match. Our plans include several more matches in early 2001, adding coursing and then, hopefully, straight racing, as well. Also we will be doing handling classes and have a Newsletter and webpage up and running. Our goals are to promote the enjoyment of Whippet ownership, to have fun things for pet owners, as well as the show people, and to encourage ALL to get out and participate in the various venues.
If you are in AZ, then COME JOIN THE FUN!
Sangaree
LoRu’s Sangaree Moon
The year 2000 brought great joy and great sadness.
In the spring, a miracle came into my life with “DJ”.
A look alike grandson of my Ch. Sangaree’s Moon Dancer, who I lost in ‘96.
In the fall, I lost my dear friend and mentor of 28 years, Freddie Page. Her Farvel Whippets
and influence were the whole basis of Sangaree. I am glad she lived to know she had a new
“great-grandson” in little DJ. And now she’s reunited with all her beloved dogs, as she longed to be.

Macy found time between race meets to hit a few shows and AKC trials in 2000! After placing 3rd behind two show champions in a very nice Racing Bitch class under breeder-judge Joan Goldstein at the National Specialty, she found her way to an all-breed show where she was awarded Winners Bitch/Best of Opposite Sex for 2 points under breeder-judge Kathleen Davenport. Macy also made her debut in AKC lure coursing, which trials are almost nonexistent in our area. She coursed to the tune of a 5-point major from the open stake and proceeded on to Best in Breed, and picked up another point at a later trial. Macy’s “procrastinating” Mommy still intends to start her in flyball and finally get her big Sis, Becca, going in obedience. But, over and beyond all their accomplishments in competition, they are the absolute joy of my life!
