Glory was our first home bred clumber, and we are very proud of her.  She was my constant companion and joy and car co-pilot.  Glory finished her Championship with three 5 point majors, including a 5 point major at American Spaniel Club, just like her mother Sasha.  Glory then went to the CSCA National and won an Award of Merit and a Tracking Dog title, and she was only a year and a half old.  At the following CSCA National Specialty she was BOS, and then Glory retired until she won the Veteran Class, always breeder/owner handled.  Glory only had 6 puppies in her life, but Ginger and Willis went BW at a CSCA National Specialty, Ginger and Haylea won Award of Merits, and Waldo went BOS in Sweeps at a CSCA National Specialty. We lost Glory Days to old age 6 July 2004. As my vet said, it is the end of an era. We miss her terribly.
