Ch. Marpointe's chantilly wine
"Chanti"
"Chanti" was one of my first home bred champions. First time out she took the points all three days at Mill Bay, opposite a male I was showing at the time from Royal Oaks who took the points in the male class all three days as well. The next show at the time was Nanaimo, where I arrived too late to do much in the way of grooming. Because there was such a large entry of open bitches (20) and because I hadn't the time to groom other than run a brush through her coat, I went into the ring knowing I would not win but determined to have fun with her. Imagine my surprise when she took the points for a five point win to finish! She was fun to show but hated having her picture taken so the only ones I could get were "au-naturelle".
