BISS CH CHROMA MAID TO ORDER CGC TDI CHROMADANE

Miss Maud finishing her Championship

in Houston with Steve Cochran on the lead.

Steve Hill gained her a BISS from the classes

& her other major. Owner-handled to minor pts.

Mike Chiles took her all the way to the final cut in a huge 12-18 class (only color bitch kept) at the 2000 National.

MAUD takes a 3rd in the National Specialty's prestigious Veterans class in AZ 2005, breeder-owner-handled. See details below (with more photos of this photogenic girl in the 6-8 yr class).

Maud was my only bitch from 1999 breeding of Pockets to my Fraser daughter Tia. After a whole long night of boy, boy, boy (when I had names picked out for two girls to keep!), Maud came out into my trembling hands. My husband looked in on his way to work, saw her & said "Looks like she was made to order" & so she got her name. Miss Maudie was always a tomboy under that girlie exterior & she loved the beach: we called her our beach bunny & Barbie Dane.

MAUD stuns us all coming back to showing like she never left!

Maud takes a 3rd owner-handled in an awesome Veteran's Bitch class with her breeder & delights all in Parades as well with owner Mary Lugo (more photos below).---->
And for all who ever wondered, no<G>I am not some small Japanese man, but a tall Texas girl (see above). Below Mary Lugo w/Maud in Parades, doing Freestyle. Maud brought the house down when she took a victory lap around the ring ala breed at the end--as if to say to Mary: "I know what comes next & best!"

Maud & Mary celebrated life & love with this freestyle dance together during Parades. Awesome doesn't even begin to describe this glorious team. Above photos of Maud winning in Veterans, but the best bit the whole week was Maud this sentimental performance with Mary, then Maud taking a turn<G>alone around the ring as "once is not enough" when you are the show ring ham the Barbie Dane is!

BISS CH CHROMA MAID TO ORDER CGC TDI

Miss MAUD turned 11 years old on the 29th of August 2010.

Party On, You Darling Old Girl! You can still stop traffic! xxoojpY

Miss MAUD below shown in her home in San Luis Obispo with her favorite person Mary Lugo.

Miss MAUD gained her Championship at the competitive Astro Shows getting two 4 pt. majors. She finished with a BISS & multiple BOBs from the classes & having taken most all of her points at Specialty weekends. She unfortuntely didn't turn out to have as much talent for making babies as for showing, but tried her hardest all the same. Her reward for all her effort & achievement was the home of her dreams: a life on the beach with people who cherish her. We mourn the loss of our long-lived Maud--we said goodbye to her when 11+ years old. There isn't any way to start to begin (nevermind end) saying thanks to a girl who brought so much joy to so many. She was my wonderful show dog & Mary Lugo's best friend for so many years. My only criticism of Maud would be: "my beautiful girlfriend, why couldn't you leave me any puppies behind as a legacy?" Still we have her memories & her brother Guidon's legacy.

Maud with her adoring Simon near San Luis Obispo. Maud's theme: "Girls just wanna have fun!" (And she is always that!)
We are grateful to the Lugos for giving Maud the "retirement" home of her dreams. Maud as as dog we have shared & both cherished has become the beginning of a beautiful friendship for us all. So Maud is not only a Specials dog, she's another kind of special dog, as she became a veritable nexus of warm feelings between many. That's as nice a legacy as I can imagine for any dog
