CH Joywood's Thrill of the Chase CD ME


image A big day for Haggis - finishing his championship with a five-point major under breeder-judge Mrs F. Somerfield. The picture is unfortunate: Haggis' right front leg is not deformed -- the illusion is a combination of grass, his lifting his paw, and a quickie brush job. In real life (Haggis wants the girls to know) he is a very handsome boy in the English style (higher on leg) with a nice neck, wonderful balance, medium bone, a sturdy rear, a decent front, and expression to melt hearts. And a tail that wags his whole body.
imageCan you see the imaginary overalls? I'm always amused at how serious the Haggis looks in some pictures; we tend to think of him as an earnest goofball. We thought we might submit this picture for his entry in the 1998 Cairn Terrier in America book noting his Senior Earthdog title but it didn't reduce to tiny size and black and white worth a darn. In May 1999, Haggis earned his Master Earthdog title, becoming the fourth cairn to do so (following in the muddy footsteps of his litter brother, Geordie).
imageWe weren't able to go the Southern California Specialty the year following Haggis' big finish there so we sent a dumb "have fun" ad for the catalog. The theme of the 98 specialty was Pirates of the Cairnbean, hence the ridiculous eye patch :-)

The Other Haggis


Of course that other haggis has fans, too.
