GCH CH Cryslen's One Way Or Another "Murphy" (formally Penny)

Murphy, who was formally known as Penny now lives with the Farrar family in North Carolina.

Penny stacked at 10 months oldShe will get to visit us often when her new mom is working in Richmond. We can't wait to see her again soon.

Exciting news: Murphy started her specials career in April 2015 and quickly finished her Grand Championship with very limited showing.

Murphy finished her championship from the 9-12 month puppy class in Harrisburg, PA on August 10, 2014. She is my first home-bred champion and my first champion finished from the puppy classes.

Murphy has taken nose work and tracking classes.

The theme for Murphy's litter was "One" so I named her Cryslen's One Way Or Another (You know Blondie, right?)
