CHAMPION BIRINCI'S YAHSI and HIS CHAMPION OFFSPRING
February, 2008

CHAMPION BIRINCI'S YAHSI
A friend of mine emailed me with some Championship information about the offspring of
CHAMPION BIRINCI'S YAHSI.
Below are some of the reasons my friend likes YAHSI'S genetics!
My friend said....
Not only did YAHSI WIN BEST OF BREED at WESTMINISTER DOG SHOW
this year (Feb, 2008), Yahsi wasn't shown for six months in 2007
and still finished #1 AKC ALL BREED in 2007! And YAHSI, who is
the #1 AKC ALL BREED ANATOLIAN IN 2007, 2006 & most of 2005, IS A PROVEN WORKING LIVESTOCK
GUARDIAN and ONLY the 5th ANATOLIAN IN AKC SHOW HISTORY to WIN THE WORKING GROUP,
which YAHSI has done MULTIPLE TIMES!

YAHSI'S CHAMPION OFFSPRING
|
CHAMPION INANNA'S BAY BOUDREAU of LUCKY HIT
Maybe YAHSI'S son,
CHAMPION INANNA'S BAY BOUDREAU of LUCKY HIT,
will be going to Westminister in the future. As you know,
in 2007, Boudreau finished #1 AKC BREED,
#2 AKC ALL BREED, is a SPECIALTY WINNER and MULTIPLE GROUP PLACING ANATOLIAN
(LIKE HIS SIRE) and HAS ALWAYS BEEN SHOWN OWNER HANDLED.

Or maybe we might see Yahsi's daughter,
CHAMPION INANNA'S BOTANY BAY of LUCKY HIT (Posey),
at Westminister. Posey earned MULTIPLE GROUP PLACEMENTS,
OWNER HANDLED, in her show career.

Or perhaps we'll see Yahsi's daughter,
CHAMPION INANNA'S BETHANY BAY of LUCKY HIT (Bethany),
who, like her sire, finished her championship in only TWO SHOW WEEKENDS.
Bethany lives on the ranch, in the pasture 24/7, guarding her goats.

BETHANY is A FULL TIME WORKING FLOCK GUARDIAN.
She is with goats, llamas, geese, and ducks at Lucky Hit Ranch.
She is loving and happy and enjoys living with her animals.
She is a wonderful blend of her sire, CHAMPION BIRINCI'S Yahsi (Handsome),
and her dam, CHAMPION MARANDA'S Matilda Bay (Grace), and has their beautiful
movement and conformation. Her temperament is happy, outgoing, and upbeat,
similar to her sire's.
She earned her AKC CHAMPIONSHIP in only two show weekends!
Both Bethany's Sire, Ch BIRINCI'S YAHSI,
and litter brother, GRAND CHAMPION INANNA'S
BAY BOUDREAU OF LUCKY HIT ,
took BEST OF BREED AT WESTMINISTER.
And Boudreau also took
BEST OF BREED at the 2010 ANATOLIAN NATIONAL SPECIALTY! and

And we might see Yahsi's daughter,
CHAMPION ASHLEY MANOR'S DIVAKIZ LUCKYHIT (Kizzie),
who was a puppy GROUP placer and in 2007 ranked as the
#2 AKC BREED BITCH in the country despite only being shown half
the year.
Kizzie lives on the ranch, in the pasture 24/7, guarding her goats, ducks,
and geese.
|
And I'd like to see Yahsi's daughter,
CHAMPION LUCKY HIT Sahara SIPER,
shown at Westminister, since SHE EARNED HER CHAMPIONSHIP
FROM THE PUPPY CLASSES while being exclusively handled by a 14 year old
junior handler.
Siper lives on the ranch, in the pasture 24/7, guarding her goats, ducks,
and geese.
|
And I expect to see Yahsi's grandson,
Champion LUCKY HIT Shadow ZIRVA,
shown at Westminster, since ZIRVA EARNED HIS CHAMPIONSHIP
IN THREE SHOW WEEKENDS AND BEFORE HE WAS A YEAR AND A HALF OLD.
AT 16 MONTHS, ZIRVA TOOK GROUP 2 HIS FIRST WEEKEND SHOWN AS
A CHAMPION SPECIAL (making his sire, YAHSI, the only GROUP PLACING ANATOLIAN to sire
TWO GENERATIONS of GROUP PLACING OFFSPRING to date).
ZIRVA lives on the ranch, in the pasture 24/7, guarding his goats, ducks,
and geese.

Then my friend added...
Quite impressive, Erick, especially since
all this winning was done within a three
and a half year period. And it's especially fantastic because
YAHSI is a proven working livestock guardian who
consistently wins BIG at dog shows and ALSO produces generations of offspring
who win BIG at dog shows, many of whom are also active working livestock guardians
guarding goats, kids, geese, and ducks!
"I think it's great that you have been
willing to commit the enormous investment in time and money required to breed
and show top quality Anatolians! You once told me you wanted to breed
proven working Anatolians capable of winning big at dog shows and I believe you accomplished that goal!"
