Summit Some Days Are Diamonds
“Annie” is a chiseled beauty with an unbridled enthusiasm for life. Her sire is the big moving and handsome Ch. Summit Sir Yvain. Her dam is the exotic and typey Ch. Keynote Chelsea Windsong. Reminiscent of her paternal grandmother, Ch. Autumn’s Terry Cloth, ROM, Annie is everything we dreamed of when we did this breeding.
Thank you Deann Christianson and Sharon Hoagland for leasing us the lovely Ballad. Watch for Annie as she makes her debut in 2001.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Denny Baker – Betty Stites – Denise Tatro
This past year has been a year of firsts for the Lone Star Whippet Club. We held our first AKC Lure Course trial/test. We were well supported with an overall two-day trial entry of 71, with 25 JC’s. In the spring, we held our first supported entry in conjunction with the Texas Kennel Club. Judge Al Miniero had a sweepstakes entry of 30 – one of the largest in the country. Judged by Shelley Hennessy, the regular classes were equally as impressive with 25 dogs, 38 bitches, 1 veteran dog and 9 specials. We also held our first ASFA “fun trial” in preparation to become an ASFA affiliated club. In addition, we completed our third B-match and are now hoping to obtain A status. In 2001, we look forward to completing our ASFA requirements and working toward the goal of becoming an AKC licensed club.

Katie’s Kids
Upper Mountain Spirit in the Sky - “Eli”
(Dual Ch. Sporting Field’s Jazz Fest, FCh. “Rory” x Ch. Upper Mountain JB’x Phantom, SC “Katie Anne”)
Born in the middle of an East Coast blizzard, we knew that Eli was something special from the very beginning. Eli made his ring debut at barely 7 months of age and went Best of Breed over Specials (including one of ours!) from the 6-9 puppy dog class, under judge Judy Harrington. Merely five days later, he was awarded Best in Sweepstakes at an American Whippet Club Supported Entry at the prestigious Somerset Hills Kennel Club. Thanks to judge Joe Franchi for finding Eli amongst the many gorgeous puppies entered that day. A couple of weeks later, Eli was awarded Winners Dog at another venerable show, the Devon Dog Show Association, under judge Jane Forsyth.
Eli is now enjoying being a puppy on the farm while he matures and is currently learning how to navigate in 2 feet of snow! He will be shown by our friend and fellow whippet breeder/handler extraordinaire, Kim Tudor, in 2001. Eli combines the best of Sporting Fields and Upper Mountain bloodlines and we are very excited about his future. Thanks to fellow breeders and exhibitors for the support and enthusiasm that you have shown for this special puppy.

Upper Mountain Mayflower Madam - “DeeDee”
(Ch. Bar-Vic’s Ollie Take Two x Ch. Upper Mountain JB’x Phantom, SC “Katie Anne”)
Our pick puppy from Katie’s first litter, DeeDee also hit the show ring by storm, winning Best in Show Puppy at her first show at 6 months of age. This win was especially meaningful to us as many handlers and breeders from across the country used this show as a Westminster warm-up, because it was held the weekend prior. Thanks to judge Steven Gladstone for this exciting win and to whippet expert Dr. John Shelton for finding her in the Breed and Puppy Group rings.
Under the very capable guidance of Kim Tudor, DeeDee is now looking for her last major after taking the past year off to enjoy puppyhood and mature. Next, DeeDee will pursue her coursing career and will then be bred in 2002.
