Another Best in Field for Black Beauty, our last field competition of the season April 21, 2012  This was the Houston Area Hound Association's first AKC lure coursing event.  Black Beauty won Best of Breed both days in very worthy competition, earning her about a dozen Bowen points.
The best of Shefaro is Shefaro Temperament.
Everyone was shocked to see how naturaly she took to her service dog testing. She was a pro and everyone thought she had been doing it for years. Such an excellent girl! She has experienced so much in the past week and acted like she had been doing it all her life...even I was shocked about the escalator.

Here is Anya, a Shefaro service Borzoi, boarding the plane for her first plane trip.  Please click the picture to see what Shefaro temperament is all about!

After I finished preparing my coffee this morning, I approached Nadirah who was lying on the couch and said, “Good Morning Princess.” She was curled up in a little ball and immediately flicked her tail, but kept her body stationary. Thankfully I had my iPhone nearby to capture this photo.  Charly
