<NEWEST AKC CHAMPION, ASTC BISS, IBACA Grand Seiger BIS Int'l Champion FANTASY'S LOUIS LE GRAND, AKA LOUIE
(sire: Ch. Fantasy's Tour de France; dam: Ch. Fantasy's Stunning Stella) finishes his AKC Championship while still 10 mos. of age, completely breeder/owner handled, in 4 shows, 4 major wins, 3 best of breed wins over champions, on 5/5/23. We are thrilled with him, his very cute personality, type and beautiful deep clear red and white color and markings. We look forward to giving him a chance to further mature and to special for his grand championship this year. Many thanks to his all of his judges, Ms. Pauline Grutzner, Mr. Robin L. Stansell, Ms. Elizabeth Muthard and Ms. Joy S. Brewster. What a pleasure to have shown him to all of you and thank you for your many compliments about 'Louie.' He then went on to win a Best In Specialty Show under Ms. Nancy Smith Hafner, an International Grand Seiger Best In Show under a panel of our 4 judges (2 USA and 2 Int'l): Judges Mrs. Mary Ellen Meyer, Ms. Beverly Sigl Felton, Mr. Guillermo Cavazos, Mr. Joao Machado where I was so thrilled with this win.

Needless to say we are so very happy and thank all of our judges for a lifetime of cherished memories.
<NEWEST AKC CHAMPION FANTASY'S AMERICAN BEAUTY, AKA BEA
(Sire: Ch. Fantasy's American Hero ROM* x Dam: Fantasy's Amber Alert) finished her AKC Championship on 9/30/2023 with three majors wins professionally handled by our dear friend Dan Haley. Her judges were Ms. Nikki Rigbee for her first major, Mr. Richard Albee, Mrs. Christine Martinez for her second major, Jean Nelsen for her third major, Mr. Bill Lee, Mrs. Vicki Abbott, and finished by Mr. Dale Martenson. Bea as we call her excels in a beautiful head type and overall soundness and health. Thank you to all of her judges and Dan. Her AKC Championship title qualifies her sire Ch. Fantasy's American Hero for an ASTC Register Of Merit suffix (meaning having sired 6 AKC champions and one additional in his case of one Canadian too)
<Newest AKC Champion Fantasy's Striking Tsunami, aka Suni
(Sire: Ch. Fantasy's Tour de France x Dam: Ch. Fantasy's Stuning Stella)
Suni finished her AKC Championship on Oct. 22, 2023, a day I will always remember. Thank you to Mrs. Diana Skinbinski. She won previously two specialty Best Of Winners and completed her title, like her mother, Ch. Fantasy's Stunning Stella, all breeder owner handled from the Bred By Exhibitor Class. I was able to show and complete title requirements for two of our Shih Tzu this year (Suni and Louie), where Suni won two STCSEW Specialty major wins. So, it's been a whirlwind of a year showing our Shih Tzu and that is truly what drew me into this breed and sport. We wish everyone well and thank you to all of Suni's judges, Hope to see you next year with more show news.
