Journey, always dreamed of showing merle.

She is my first merle champion, granted she thought

going around the ring was a Kentucky Derby Race.

But her expression and smooth movement persuaded the judges

to find her in the crowd.  She is the first merle to obtain a 5 point class major 

and the youngest Grand Champion. First Bred-by Exhibitor/Owner handled.

Many firsts with this color can be accompished.

Just very proud to be holding the lead when it happened.
