| I want to take this opportunity to introduce: OPR FREDRICK THE GREAT RADNT and his owners, Jessica Foster and her daughter, Samantha. Freddy exemplifies OPR Shibas as a companion and show dog. Samantha, at 10, is becoming a competitive junior handler. WE ARE VERY PROUD OF FREDDY WHO COMBINES THE ANCESTRY OF CH. BO AND CH. EDDIE, AND THE FOSTERS |
 |
| Freddy was not the only winner here - Sam was first place in Novice Juniors from a class of 5! |
 |
| Jess and Freddy have both majors, a BOB, and multi BIS puppy match wins on their way to his championship. |
|
 |
| Introducing 13-year-old handler, BRIDGETT COFFEY, and her shiba, Ch. Bubby. Bubby was bred on OPR Shibas (formerly Fansu Shibas). Bridgett is a daughter of Lisa Coffey, LiRic Akitas, and is going to be a handler to watch as she grows up. The link below will take you to Bridgett's webpage. http://www.geocities.com/bridgcoff We are very proud of junior handlers - They are the future. |

|
| Although we are no longer actively breeding shibas, we feel they can be the ideal family dog. Ch. Eddie, shown here at 7 1/2 years, with our young friend, Samantha, is our own family/house dog, but he thinks all children belong in his extended family. Eddie is simply, The Perfect Dog. |
 |
| Samantha and Freddy took Grove, OK by storm April 25, 2004. Samantha was awarded 1st in Novice Juniors, then showed her dog in conformation. They went WD, to finish his championship, then on to BEST of BREED. This win let them compete in the Non-Sporting Group where they took a GROUP IV under Peggy Hogg. A remarkable win to finish out a remarkable day!!!!! |
| Watch for pics from the Grove shows here, when they arrive. |
