Ch Vineyards Contender - GROUP ONE in Japan



Ch. Vineyards Contender, in his first time being shown in Japan, won Best of Breed and Group First on October 2nd. We congratulate his owner, Ko Yamaguchi. Ten, a happy boy from the ISCA litter of the year of 2009, is a rich, deep red in color. He is a full brother of our Best in Show winning Ch Vineyards Bad Boy.

Ch Vineyards Contender is now in Japan with his new owner, Ko Yamaguchi, who also owns Int Ch Vineyards Red Sun Rising.  This is a picture of Ten that Ko recently took in Japan.

Ten, a full brother of our Ch Vineyards Bad Boy, will be shown in Japan.  We wish Ten and Ko the best of luck.

Contender is a member of our "C" Litter which earned its dam, Ch Vineyards Toora Loora, her second award as Matron of the Year (for 2009) and the Vineyards Kennel, Reg., its second Litter Breeder of the Year award.

Contender's litter is birdy and smart as well as beautiful.  Two of his littermates have rally and hunting titles.  One sister has a JH (Junior Hunting) title and his brother, Ch Vineyards Cabernet, owned by Michelle Ahmann, recently earned a RN title (Rally Novice).

Ko Yamaguchi has sent word that he, his family, and dogs are all fine. He sent some new photos of Ch Vineyards Contender in Japan taken in the Summer of 2011. Ko hopes to earn an International championship with Ten, as he did with Ch Vineyards Red Sun Rising.

Ch Vineyards Toora Loora, ROM, won the Best Matron Award for the second time at the recent ISCA National event.  Her "C" litter received the most championship points of any litter in 2009, 60 points. We won the Litter Breeder award for the "C" Litter and the Breeder of the Best Matron Award. Toora Loora also won the award for her "B" Litter a few years ago.

Toora Loora is happy as a house dog with our daughter, Kelly, her husband and Serena, who is almost three, in Minneapolis.



Ch Vineyards Bad Boy was honored with two awards at the June, 2010 Wisconsin ISCA National:  The Rockherin Trophy, the Best in Show Award, for winning Best in Show more times than any other Irish Setter in 2009; and the Scarlly Trophy, the Sporting Group Award, for winning more Sporting Groups in 2009 than any other Irish Setter.
