I knew Bo was going to be a pretty dog, and a great companion for a lucky family as a pup. But I don't believe any breeder could have predicted the success Bo achieved.  Originally Bo was sold to the Domas's as a family companion and since they lived close to me they brought Bo to me for regular haircuts and visits.  With each new visit I began to recognize more potential with this stunning young dog. I discussed the possibility of showing Bo with Bob and Roberta Domas and they thought it could be fun thing for their family.

We knew Bo had good potential as a show dog when we were getting started, but he exceeded our expectations with numerous television appearances, multiple awards and his Best in Show wins.  Bo's career could not have been possible without the continuous help of my breeding partner Jean and her husband, Chris Erath. Also coming on board as part of Team Bo were Bob and Barb Deloian from Castle Rock, Colorado. For 2 ½ years we hit the road traveling throughout the country.  It was an exhausting adventure for the both of us but I could not have asked for a better outcome!  Win or lose, Bo always gave me his best effort in the ring.

Bo was sired by our boy, Boomer (CH. Tanglewood's Secret Weapon) and his mother was Zoey ( CH. Tanglewood's Blk Ft Beauty) owned by Paul Mihailides and myself.  I could not be more proud of Bo and all of his accomplishments.  Many thanks to my partners for their help with Bo’s career!
