These are some parting shots of SMOKEY children.

MYSTIC'S MIDSUMMER TURQUOISE (front)

Another view of Mystic's Midsummer Turquois (and back)!

Is a head to die for of CH. MYSTIC'S NIMUE

Reveals all of her. Her dam was CH.MARJO'S WRANGLER JANE.

These are beautiful littersisters by SMOKEY. The fawn bitch lived in Washington, her name was CAN.CH.WILLOWRUN FREE N' EASY --"FREEZY." FREEZY was owned by PHANTOM LAKE HOUNDS in Bellevue, WA. The particolor was WILLOWRUN TERRA-COTTA, owned by Cecelia Ross of San Diego, CA. Shown here by Leroy Stage. They were bred by Lila Colburn & Jean Ueltschy out of WHEELING SKI RUN.

I'm sorry I cannot identify this one as there is no name on the back of the photo' but definitely a SMOKEY offspring.

This is definitely Canadian BIS Ch.Goldenstones Red Hunter. Just look at the make and shape of this gorgeous dog -- strong neck, the lay of the shoulder, the fill in the front, no hollow here, the depth of chest, nice give in the pasterns, really strong loin, and a perfect rear! He was a solid red, like his granddam. Ch. wheeling Red Velvet.

At this time I'd like to introduce you to the multi BIS CH. ALPINE SKI BUM. He was owned by Louis Auslander and shown by Dick Cooper. This dog was being specialed everywhere that I took my Whippets across Indiana, silly me I thought I could challenge him with my beautiful RUBY, the best we could do was BOS!

I studied this dog from every angle for 2 years and liked what I saw. He had things I wanted to incorporate into my line. I liked his head, strong muzzle. That neck and better yet it was white! His elegance and quality. For me he was marked by God! He had an interesting pedigree too, his sire was ENG. AM. CH. LAGUNA LEISURE x CH. UNMITIGATED GALLWAY ROMX. This bitch was sired by another English import AM.CH.ROANBAR SON OF CACHOLONG, so there was my English connection. You know what they say "if you can't beat 'em join 'em " so I promptly sent CH. WHEELING RED VELVET to him and on 11.14.1974 RUBY delivered what were to become 2 Group winners! I had already bred another of my brood bitches to him and liked what I got, more on that later.

Here is RUBY'S daughter AM. & CAN. CH. WHEELING GHOST OF A CHANCE-- she won Groups in the USA and CANADA. My favorite picture of her. WENDY is with her owner Col. Joe Rogers USAF.

RUBY'S son CH. WHEELING WHOLLY GHOST -- CASPER -- was sold to Jim Stamper but before that he is shown by yours truly to Gerhardt Plaga (my sweetie)!

Now to another story involving SKI BUM. I decided to send a bitch to him, the mighty APHRODITE (with apologies to Woody Allen)! "BUBBLES" brought forth a lovely litter of particolors 4 girls and 2 boys on 4.25.1973. I kept 2 bitches and campaigned WHEELING SWISS MISS to her title by 13 months of age, she was the first Champion to finish for SKI BUM!

Here she is a mere babe in the woods winning under the incomparable KAY FINCH, well known for her art, Afghan's & Saluki's, I was thrilled (I guess you can tell)!

Here's CHARLOTTE in Kentucky, after driving through a blizzard to get there but it was worth it!

This is the day that CHARLOTTE finished in Memphis, TN. It was their centennial show, under an Australian judge she was 13 months old and breeder/owner/handled all the way!

Compare how CH. WHEELING SWISS MISS has matured throughout these photo's.

CHARLOTTE is going BOB while her littersister takes WB, this was WHEELING SKI RUN, she eventually went to Owen J. Light, which quite a few of you are familiar with! Handlers are Jean & Paul Ueltschy.

This is CH. WHEELING CRIMSON TIDE her DOB 7.7.73 "PEACHES" was an offspring of the Group winning CH. WHEELING GUNSHOT x CH. WHEELING RED VELVET. "PEACHES" was bred back to her grandsire CH. WHEELING TIGER PAWS and produced a litter of 3 but only 2 survived.

This produced CH. WHEELING HONEYSUCKLE ROSE F.CH.("she's perfection, goodness knows" la-la-la-la-la-la) "HONEY" is with her owner Robert "Bob" Mason.

I have to introduce you to our daughter Stacey, here she is proudly showing HER puppy WHEELING MAID OF MAGIC to win under Gerhardt Plaga.

Winning again!

I think this wraps it up for Stacey as she finished her bitch in 13 shows and all from the Puppy and B.B.E classes, Stacey was 12 years old! This bitch was sired by the Group winning CH.WHEELING JONATHAN SWIFT F.CH. Jonathan was the No.10 Whippet in the Nation in 1977 The dam was our own CH.WHEELING CRIMSON TIDE.

This is a photo' of CH.WHEELING JONATHAN SWIFT F.CH. while in the ring with his owner Robert "Bob" Mason. DOB 2.28.1976 He was sired by CH.WHEELING TIGER PAWS out of CH.WHEELING SWISS MISS. As a sire JONATHAN did well, his offspring include CH.WHEELING MAID OF MAGIC. CH.BLU-KALE JOHNNY REB F.CH. WHEELING CUSTOM MAID F.CH. CH.PALEO'S PLEASURE TIME. & CH.SHADOWMIST BLU-KALE TWISTER .

This is WHEELING TIGRESS F.CH. in action at Lure trials. We are proud of all our F.Ch.'s
