ARBA Convention at Portland Revisited - People Watching




One of the interesting things at the conventions is to see friends and watching other breeders.   Here are Don from Michigan and Joan from New York, both are presenters of new breed or variety.


Katie and Brad, Best In Show winners at the convention.  In 2002 convention their solid Havana won Best In Show.   A few years later, they successfully presented broken Havana.  This year their broken Havana won the Best In Show.    They are definitely "legend" breeders. 



Gabe and Sandra are both originally from CA, now Gabe lives in PA and Sandra in GA.


Polish Princess Kathi and daughter are wearing make up for Halloween.



Gabe and Eric are partners for life.



Thomas is enjoying Betty's English Angora.
