MBIF UKC/AKC DC Alisian Fields Kenzie of Kamar MC FCH
(Amberlithe Caprecio Uno X CH Jemm's Exquisite Ana Alisian JC FCH CGN)
*** Kenzie wins her 5th AKC Best In Field in Knoxville, MD Sept. 20, 2009!!***
A special thanks to Alisa Barbour for entrusting me with Kenzie. I have high hopes for this girl in the show ring, coursing field and whelping box.
Kenzie's sire Amberlithe Caprecio Uno,"Uno" was bred by Amberlihe. The Amberlithe kennel is known for sound movement and exotic type. Uno's sire "Roo" is litterbrother to "She" UKC/AKC/CKC CH Wishsong's Na Mho Rhingam who received a Westminster Award of Merit in 2001 and is currently Canada's most Winningest Ibizan bitch. Some of the oldest Ibizan lines are preserved through Nan Little's Amberlithe kennel.
Kenzie's dam, Ana's littermates include ASFA BIF CH Jemm's Exquisite Monet JC FCh (BOS at the Ibizan Nationals in 2004), CH Jemm's Exquisite Bonnard JC FCh, and CH Jemm's Exquisite Van Gogh LCM , all three of which are ranked in the ASFA Top 20 in 2006. Some other siblings include: MBIF FC Jemm's Dream Al-Mansour SC CGC, CH Jemm's Macin' The Dream, and Jemm's Sweetwater Dream SC CM. Ana herself was #1 in 2005 AKC breed points and received a Westminster Award of Merit in 2006. Ana was also in the top 20 ASFA the past few years with very limited coursing. She also won Best of Breed at a day of the ASFA II in 2004. Marge Morris of Jemm Ibizan Hounds is their breeder.
Ana is the mostly white Ibizan. Actually, she is the only pinto Ibizan hound to have garnered the #1 status in breed points. She was also completely owner handled.
Kenzie is a confident fireball who we hope will follow in her mom's paw prints.
Kenzie has grown into a very moderate, correct moving adult. She also has a very sweet, loving, goofy temperment and will do just about anything to make you laugh. She is everyone's best buddy and loves to give hugs and kisses.
Kenzie finished her UKC and AKC championships. She finished her UKC CH with multiple group firsts and a Reserve Best in Show. She finished her AKC CH during the Ibizan Hound National Specialty weekend by taking Winners Bitch/Best of Winners for a 5pt major over a beautiful entry of 17 bitches.
She, like her relatives, is a fast, agile, consistent courser who finished both her AKC and ASFA Field Championships during her first coursing season in the competitive South East (Region VII).
Kenzie will make a few local special appearances and will continue to lure course. She is well on her way toward her ASFA Lure Courser of Merit (LCM) and AKC Master Courser (MC) titles.
*** Kenzie finishes 2008 off with a total of 4 AKC Best In Fields and #3 AKC Lure Coursing Ibizan!***
Motherhood is planned for Kenzie in the Fall 2009. Please visit "Litter Plans" for more details.
Kenzie's finishing photo May 2008 Gray Summit, MO:
Above is Kenzie RBIS photo taken on 8/18/2007. She is 14 months old.
Lure Coursing : Kenzie is just starting her lure coursing career and is living up to her expectations. Like her Jemm relatives, she has a strong drive for the lure and is both quick and agile while running. At the MAWA AKC Lure Trial in Cartersville, GA Oct 14 2007, Kenzie gained her JC title and proceded to take Best in Field win for a 5pt major!
In Feb 2008 Kenzie finished her ASFA Field Championship with a bang by taking Best of Breed at the CHASE lure trial in Cartersville GA.
Kenzie coming in for the "Kill". She loves to kill her baggie "bunnies" after each course. Unlike her mother, Kenzie will stand at the line with a "bunny" in her mouth waiting to be caught.
Happy Beezer Running....
