LUCKY - The dog who started it all!

Some of us are lucky in our lives to have special people pass through who influence us for the better, and inspire us to be the best we can be. But when that special connection happens to come from a dog, it is truly amazing.  Lucky was that kind of dog.

Connie - Lucky's Best Girl!  They all love Lucky, but Connie loves him the most!.
THE EARLY YEARS!!
Lucky shown by Ken Matthews.
Lucky New American Champion!.
Bill and Lucky discovered Havanese while they were learning all about Dog Shows.  They hit the show ring together, and during the off times wandered around meeting all the other dogs.  They both decided that Havanese dogs were the most fun! 

Lucky taught BIll everything he knows about pleasing judges and showing off!  Bill showed Lucky to his American and Canadian Championships!  Lucky was truly loved by all the other dogs at Burns Gardens.  He was the son of the famous ANDY who won the Sporting Group at Westminster a few years ago (and should have then gone on to Best In Show as far as we are concerned!).
