2007 found sisters Ch. Do Gato's Catwoman (Pickles), as always breeder/owner handled but expertly groom by Molly Exner-Howell, PHA, and her sister Ch. Do Gato's Dazzling Diamante (Dazzle) in the thick of the competition (and Dazzle expertly handled by Jody Paquette) at Westminster Kennel Club, Madison Square Garden, February 13, 2007. Dazzle 'made the first cut' in a field of 30 incredible PWDs. Recent Mom Pickles held her own during her time in the ring, and I'm very, very proud of both girls.

Now all three Champions from Ch. Stargazer's Gatinha Do Algarve (our dear Kitty) and Ch. Sunnyhill Dom Benjamin's first litter together have "made it to the Garden"! This trio of Champions comes from Do Gato's third litter of puppies, the "Barbecue Litter", born July, 22, 2003.

Now if we could just get the weather in NY to cooperate in February!
