Casey’s Satin Angora Wins Reserve In Show at Vallejo




As we have seen in yesterday's post that the Reserve In Show in show A is Casey's Satin Angora Prim Rose.



Best In Show judge Cathy Szychulda made a comment: the Satin Angora has come a long way!



Yes, Satin Angora has come a long way.    Casey had Satin Angora in the 1990s but gave it up.  The breed had good sheen but produced very little wool.   The temperment wasn't the best either.



Casey went back to Satin Angora around 2006, has been working hard to continue the improvement that occured between the 1990s and 2006.  Casey's Satin Angora has done great, winning the top honors, even the open Best In Show at the West Coast Classic a few years ago.

The Angoras had a great day at Vallejo, Casey's Satin Angora Prim Rose won open Reserve In Show in show A and Betty's English Angora Aurelia won open Best In Show in show B.   We can say the Angoras have come a long way since the 1980s when most of the Best In Show winners were meat breeds.
