Vinlands Sunna

Here are Mike and Sunna, Jennifer and Lee, and Taylor and Totty.
Mike Merrell showed Sunna in the Western Reserve Kennel Club show under AKC Judge Victoria Jordan. They earned her first point by going Winners and Best of Winners. Mike and Debbi should feel very, very proud of themselves and of Sunna. She looked great.
Here she is in the ring with Totty, her mom, the first dog on the left. Sunna, on the right, is looking up at 'Dad' for treats. She is still a puppy and won't even be a year old until April. I love seeing the shorter coated Icelandics in the ring. I think Mike is doing a great job, don't you?
In this photo Mike is baiting Sunna to distract her while the judge is examining her. I love the variety of fur lengths and colors and patterns in our breed. Some people would like to eliminate some colors, patterns, lengths, etc. I firmly believe that the variety in our breed is one of their best features.
