UKC Best Puppy In Show
AKC-CH U-GRCH Zelicaon Shooting Star
 

"Astro"


Astro becomes an AKC Champion on October 31, 2008, finishing with 3 major wins, the last, a 5 point major awarded by Judge Edd Bivin!
(at 1 day under 22 months of age)


UKC-BPIS, AKC Champion, UKC-GRCH Zelicaon Shooting Star was born January 1, 2007.  Rick & I traveled to Iowa where the Zelicaon Kennel, owned by Forrest G. Johnson is located to pick Astro up on Good Friday, April 6, 2007.  I should have realized what was in store as I watched Astro squeeze his way through Forrest's room divider! 

Having Astro as a part of our family has certainly provided lots of entertainment, but also some big challenges.  It became so important to have Astro take part in a puppy kindergarten training class.   He is very athletic, climbing over baby gates and out of x-pens.  He's fast too!  Up and over and G O N E ..... racing into the bedroom and under the bed for a game of Peek-A-Boo!  Here is a photo of Astro when I caught his attention while he was busy digging in the backyard.  Doesn't he have gorgeous butterfly like ears!

Astro is a wonderful example of a Papillon in both temperament and structure.  His accomplishments in the show ring include:
