As many of you know by now, Jacki Panzik took Best Brace in Show at the PCA National Show in Maryland last week. (PCA = Poodle Club of America). That means she and our girls, Admiration Charmed I’m Sure, “Valri” and Admiration Come Fly With Me, “Mimi” – standing next to Jacki are considered the Best Poodle Brace Team in the country and they’ll go down in history.

This win makes us very proud, indeed.

A Brace (def: 2 of a kind) is where a Handler takes 2 dogs into the show ring and the judging is based on the synchronization of the 2 dogs and the Handler. Both of the beautiful white Poodles are sisters and are our own breeding from our beloved Ch Admiration Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, “Trinity”. Mimi and Valri reside in Allentown, New Jersey with their mommy, Lucy Tyler an Olympic Medalist (cycling 1996) and daddy, Frank Geck.
