I was very pleasantly surprised on Sunday at Huntington, WV. We finally made it out to a show. And Elsa - NorthStar’s Let It Go took Breed and a 2nd in the Miscellaneous class. I had to get her picture because it was her Debut show! And she is completely “Green”. She walked into the ring with absolutely no training and performed immaculately! I can’t wait to truely work with her and get her trained up.

Rolo - Hickory Meadows Sweetest Thing took males, and a Best in Opposite S*x. We stopped at the Ohio River lookout and I figured I would get a pic with him. 🥰

The Yakutian Laika has started its beginning stages of UKC acceptance. We are now in the bloodlines listing service. This is a new program similar to how FSS was in AKC.

We cannot show in conformation yet. But, we can list our dogs as the correct breed for most all other titles now. This new program is what had caused the delay in getting the breed into UKC despite our initial efforts starting in August, 2019.

January Quarterly Giveaway Contest: Yakutian Laika. A beautiful breed from Siberia. Some of you are new to my contest. You have all month to enter. Please only clear high res photos. It is not about the best confirmation- it is about composition, expression, color, line- the things that will make a good painting. I will pick the winner on Jan 31, and that photo gets a $400 10x10 portrait free (but pays shipping). All Contenders can order at 50% off. I hope this is reaching around the world to all the Yakut owners.

UPDATE: There appears to be a fake account saying you have won, and to register. DO NOT ANSWER. It is fake- not me. Thank you to those that have advised me.
