Just in case our readers are puzzled by the subject line, please rest assured that this blog is not being attacked by panic; don't be panicky!

Panic Attack is the name of this awesome Mini Rex that has just received all breed Best In Show #14, breaking the known record of 13.

In 2004, Cathy S.'s broken Rex doe Rhonda won all breed Best In Show 13 times.

In 2005/2006, Betty's English Angora chocolate tort doe Emilia won 13 all breed Best In Show and 5 Reserve In Show; see http://home.pacbell.net/bettychu/2006allbreedbisris/

Now Panic Attack broke the record of 13 held by Rhonda and Emilia. The way she made #14 is even more amazing than a fantasy; here is what his papa Randy described:

"She has won 14 all breed Best in Shows in 3 different states. She was second place to the BOB doe at the national mini rex show. She won BIS at the Alameda County Fair last month out of 571 rabbits and was 27 days pregnant. She kindled a litter of 5 healthy babies- I left them with her for 3 days and then fostered them to another doe and they are all still alive and doing well. We have always had your record of 13 BISs in mind- (I believe that is a record for any rabbit in the country). I had no idea she would come back after having a litter- so we were satisfied with tying your record. When she looked as good as she did last week we brought her out again. She won 3 BOBs- 2 on sat and one on Sunday, and then BIS."

Imagine, winning an all breed Best In Show two weeks after delivering 5 bunnies!!! Panic Attack really deserves to be considered Awesome with a capital A. The three photos of Randy and Panic Attack were taken last November and January when she won 3 of the 14 Best In Show.

Congratulations to Randy and Allen, it's a great accomplishment.
