Yukon goes Best in Show!
I brought 8 month old Yukon out to the UKC Iowa Kennel Club Show in Grinnel IA in September to get his very first show weekend under his belt. Not to my surprise, he handled everything wonderfully. But to my surprise, my little baby boy took Breed, a Group 1 and a BEST IN SHOW under Judge Lila Fast! Good boy, Yukon!
