We have always said,
"When Ralphie is ready to win, he will WIN!"
And so he did!!!
Thank you to Judges
Rita Bell and Barbara Dempsey Alderman!
Thank you to the brilliant Mark Bettis
and his team for
their superb handling of our beautiful
boy!
We love you Mark and Jimmy and Bill!

We appreciate Kerry Pope's 'final touch'
and his great admiration
for Ralphie! You made our weekend Kerry!
And we made a new friend!
Thank you to the many ringside fans
(most unknown to us) for their high
praise of our dog...and wasn't it great
to reconnect with so many California
Afghan folks that I knew from 21 years
ago when I started in the breed!!!
Love always to Ralphie's biggest
supporter and the most patient,
kind hearted guy in the world, his
Uncle Kurty
Breeder: Agha Djari, Germany
