Groovy is our puppy back out of the Barry x Vixen breeding. We are excited to watch her grow up. So far she has exceeded our expectations by finishing her UKC Championship in two weekends and finishing her AKC Championship in just 2 months, her Grand in 3 months and Bronze in 3 months. She is the first female to earn an AKC Bronze Grand Champion. To date she is the winningest AHT bitch. She earned her first Group 2 on October 6th in Humble Texas under Judge Kenneth Berg.

Everyone who meets Groovy falls in love with her. She is a dynamic girl that loves everyone. (And she can't control her Licker!)

This was Groovy's Blurb at the 2019 AHT Top Ten Ceremony this year.

Groovy-GCHS Poise Wild Thing By Strider TDK or Cra-Cra to her fans,  is  owned and presented by  Angie Claussen-Poise Kennels & Cherilynn Clark and bred by Debbie Holmes-Strider Kennels. Achieving her Championship at the 2017 AHT Nationals  at 10 months old, she earned her Grand, Bronze and Silver at 13, 17 & 22 months respectively. Out of the ribbons only once in 106 shows, she had 43 BOB and 47 BOS wins with her 2018 campaign  featuring multiple group placements, earning the #2 Owner Handler spot, and #2- 2019 Westminster Qualifier. The winning-est  & only AHT bitch to earn her Bronze & Silver Grand is on track to finish her Gold very soon. This talented girl has also earned titles in weight pull (with a pull of 185lbs), and is working towards fast cat, dock diving and nosework titles.
