"TUCKER"

"Tucker", Grand Champion Champion Sunspun Snug As A Bug

Tucker was born on December 15, 2018. Keep watching his page as he grows and matures.

Tucker had a short start in his attempt to learn the ropes as a show dog. Covid-19 hit the U.S. and that put a stop to all dog shows for a year.

2021 Tucker earned his Championship under the great Sunway Presentation Team of Nick Joines and Joel McCarty.

2022. Tucker earned his Grand Championship professionally handled by Sheila Monks of Shield Crest Shetland Sheepdogs.

2022 Tucker was handled once again, by the Sunway presentation team of Nick Joines and Joel McCarty at the American Shetland Sheepdog Association National this year.  He made first cuts. He showed beautifully.

I am very proud of my Tucker "Sunspun Snug As A Bug". Thursday May 6. Judge Sandra MacIntosh-Feret awarded Tucker 1st place in the Open Sable class at our American Shetland Sheepdog Association show of the year, our National, in Perry, Georgia. Even with COVID hampering a lot of Sheltie people who wanted to be there, there was a large entry.

Thank you Judge Sandra MacIntosh-Feret for the wonderful placement.

The Sunway Team (Nick Joines and Joel McCarty), once again did a fabulous job of preparing him. A Huge THANK YOU to Joel McCarty for expertly showing him in Open Sable Class and to Nick Joines for showing him in the Winners Dog Class.

I want to congratulate all the winners and the Sheltie people who were fortunate to earn a placement.

The weekend of January 9th and 10th, 2021 was fabulous for myself and Sunspun Shelties. I haven't had a show dog out in the ring in a long time.

I want to thank my club, the Shetland Sheepdog Club of SE Florida for putting on such a fabulous show. 4 Shows, two on Saturday and 2 on Sunday. The weather cooperated and those that could be there had a good time. Those that could not, watched the show being streamed (Shelties Show Streaming Live.) Thank you Hector and Meredith and all the helpers for making this such a fantastic event for everyone.

I want to give a BIG thanks to the SUNWAY PRESENTATION team of Nick Joines and Joel McCarty for for showing Tucker, "Sunspun Snug As A Bug"     Tucker is a Hershey son (GCHB CH Silverado Coastal Mocha Latte)

He looked absolutely beautiful and he behaved so well considering he didn't know them and had not been in the ring for a year.

He had no points going into the weekend.  He earned a Best of Winners on Saturday (2nd show). A five point Specialty major. Thank you Judge Judith Pitt for acknowledging him with such a great placement.  On Sunday first show, Tucker earned Reserve Winners Dog. Thank you judge Ms. Brenda Miramon.
