Go see Guidon's babies....GUIDON's GIRL GETS HER FIRST TITLE AT SIX MONTHS!!!!!!! HIS YEARLING
SON STARTS WORK AS A THERAPY DOG!
**-NEWS FLASH-**
BREED BREAKING NEWS!!!
Dina Whitehouse finished Guidon'd
UDX on 4-28-07 a year from the start date, in only 9 weekends showing, & at the same show (Big Spring KC) where
it all began; thus closing the circle on an epic adventure that made Guidon the 10th Dane ever and only the 2nd
male in the breed to achieve the Utility Dog Excellent title. He may also be the oldest out even working at this
level, as he'll be 8 in a couple of months & is still robustly healthy!
So bravo to them for their vision
and their talents!
GUIDON finishes his UD with a FIRST PLACE and a 197!
He then goes on to consistently perform, able to finish his UDX in a year in limited showing and always in the
top five for breed rankings, as well as mostly in the ribbons all breed. And we expect he'll again have a Delaney
ranking too.
He's one of five current Utility titled
Danes and joins OTCH Tilly as the only other currently titled UDX Dane. The only other male to achieve this is
a Tilly relative (Elvis) trained & bred also by Gayle Smith (and ooh-rah to them!)
Guidon's often complimented by top regional OTCH
teams as well as judges & was recently mentioned in a Front & Finish column.

This striking Harlequin dog is by BISS CH Michaeldane JB Dagon M T Pockets Ntl, out of CH Michaeldane JB
Advent CD, and is linebred on BISS CH Fraser of Michaeldane N'CO. He is titled in obedience
& therapy work, is CGC temperament tested & an active TDI Therapy Dog volunteer. Guidon is also CHIC certified:
he is OFA Cardiac clear & echo normal at 6 years, OFA hip Good, CERF'd and OFA thyroid clear. His pretty sister
Maud (aka BISS Ch. CHROMA Maid to Order) is a Breed & Specialty Winner from the classes. Frozen, chilled
and live (side-by-side) breedings available upon consultation with the breeder (JP Yousha). Pedigree below. Guidon
is trained and handled in competition obedience & therapy by Dina Whitehouse. The GUIDON (pronounced Guide-On)
is the soldier who carries the flag in a military formation. GUIDON lives on Ft. Bliss (El Paso TX) & shares
his home (as well as his name) with many a proud regiment. This dog had had little opportunity to show in conformation.
He injured a foot severely as a puppy & when his handler & co-owner (Scott Thompson) was just beginning
to show him, sadly Scott died. His focus from then on was obedience & his therapy work & he certainly has
been an <G>overachiever in both fields!
Guidon shown directly below with Dina in obedience--scroll down for more
photos & his pedigree.
Guidon is a large (36") animal with a rock-hard topline, a long,
elegant headpiece & good bone. He has a sweet, laid-back temperament & is calm and eager to please. (A
push-button dog to show!) Brother to BISS Ch. CHROMA Maid to Order, CGC, TDI; half-brother to BISS Ch. CHROMA Thief
of Hearts, C.D., R.A., O.A., A.X.J., OJC, NAC, CGC, TDIA, VA, and O-NAC NJC CHROMA Trompe L'oeil, C.D. O.A., N.A.J.,
