CopperRidge Puppies “Cleaning Up” at Recent Puppy Sweeps!

Tuesday, August 3rd, 2010

CopperRidge Ridgebacks is so very proud of all of our puppies!  We have had some wonderful wins in the Puppy Sweeps events at recent shows.   Puppy Sweeps are not held at every show and have to be a sponsored event usually held at a RRCUS supported entry.  You generally find the judges for Puppy Sweeps are Ridgeback breeders so it is especially nice to know your dog is being recognized by a fellow breeder.

Just this past weekend – July 31 & Aug. 1 – Cody (CopperRidge Fire and Ice) took Best in Sweeps and Best of Opposite Sex in Sweeps in Waukesha, WI – thanks to Breeder/Judges Celia Hoffman and Glenn Hoffman.  Cody is from the Jessie x Rowan litter of Sept. 2009.  It should be noted this is his SECOND Best is Sweeps win!  He also won Best of Opposite Sex at a show in May.  Congratulations to owner Judy Henke!

Speaking of the Jessie x Rowan litter – there is ANOTHER Best is Sweeps winner!  Howie (CopperRidge Fire Under Control) was Best in Sweeps at the Arizona Ridgeback Specialty in April of 2010.  Thanks to Breeder/Judge Marco Solorio and congrats to owner John Kelly!

Lastly, from the Chris x Hannah litter, Haley (CopperRidge One Fell Swoop) has won Best in Sweeps at the OCRRC Specialty (Thank you Breeder Judge Eileen Bailey) and back to back Best in Sweeps at the Colorado Springs shows (Thanks to Breeder/Judges Debra Driza and Susan Mellonee).  Congrats to owners Stephen and Jaimie Hovenac.

Arizona Ridgeback Breeder – CopperRidge Ridgebacks introduces another Champion!

Thursday, September 24th, 2009

Lin and Bob Hainlen of CopperRidge Ridgebacks are proud to introduce their newest Champion – CH CopperRidge Caliente, CGC – Sebastian. He is co-owned and handled by Kathy Richards (Stredney). Kathy has been handling Sebastian since his first show at six months of age in Prescott, Arizona. And, ironically, he earned his championship at the very same show 2 years later with a 4 Point Major win – thanks to Judge Norman L Patton! Having never participated in conformation events prior to owning Sebastian, this accomplishment is all the more sweeter for Kathy and even more exciting for Lin and Bob!

Sebastian earned his first 4 point major win at the prestigious Inland Empire Hound Specialty when he was only 11 months old. He earn his champion status with 4 – 4 point majors and a 2 point win! Outstanding for this owner/handled team!!!
