The Couch Hounds

Real Good Feeling Of Meadow Valley was imported from Germany by Christine Anderson of Aries Afghan Hounds. She is the daughter of the renown BIS SBIS CH Regime's Picasso Of Keystone, and it shows! 

Exceptionally sweet and loving, yet aloof and regal, we're very proud to have Blush here at RafA. With her only breeding, to Sam Houston (Aries Stars and Stripes), she presented us with eight robust, shiny, beautiful puppies, ALL with CORRECT bites (level or tight scissors) and several with full dentition. 3 boys and 5 girls, the litter has produced our first homebred Champion, Aries Lone Star.

Aries Madagascar was my first 'show' dog. He came to us at the age of 3 months full of mischief and sweetness. Christine Anderson gave him to me to 'have fun with', and I certainly did! I showed him myself and made many mistakes with him, from grooming to presenting him in the show ring. I remember my first time in the ring with him: A fellow exhibitor told me, "Hold the leash in one hand and run." I showed Ravi with his regular leash and collar - complete with rabies tags jangling and flopping around! But we had such fun in the ring every time we were together!

We 'grew up' in showing together, although Ravi got much better at showing - and I didn't.<g>

Ravi went on to complete his Junior Coursing, Senior Coursing and finally his Field Championship, with my infinite gratitude to his co-breeder, Stephani Norris. He then went on to attain his conformation Championship under the expertise of David Osuna. Ravi is a Dual Champion, my first show dog and now enjoys his well deserved reign as the Grand Patriarch of the dogs here at RafA.
