"Here's What's Happening At Ixa Alaskan Malamutes"

Our 15 month old Glory/Calvin sable girl, "Ruby ", NFOAKIXA Over The Rainbow, took BOB at the Specialty over specials for a 5 pt major. Then took Grand sweeps both Thursday and Friday.
Then finished with a 4 pt major on Saturday taking BOS over specials! Polo took BOS two days and Sassy, my Takka daughter, took BOB on Sunday!

  Sophie had puppies 22-12-2006. Click here for more details.

Our boy "Polo" BISS AM/CA CH TaolanQuest Sharp Dress'd Man, finished the year in the top 20 allowing him to compete in the top 20 event at the AMCA National 2006!

All our puppies are in their new homes. Bear and Sasha's pages have been added.

We're looking for a new pet home for Marla, if you are interested please contact us.

Our boy "Polo" BISS AM/CA CH TaolanQuest Sharp Dress'd Man, took breed both days and a Group 1 and Group 3 at the Gray, TN shows on Saturday/Sunday in May.

Our boy "Polo" BISS AM/CA CH TaolonQuest Sharp Dress'd Man, took breed and Group 4 at the Montgomery, Alabama show on Sunday April 30th.

On the weekend of 3/16-3/19 our dogs did very well in Houston. Polo won the Specialty Show on Friday and swept the breed all days for the entire weekend. Our little puppy bitch Marla won the puppy sweeps at the Speciality Show and Winners Bitch Friday and Saturday and Best of Opposite on Sunday. We are real proud of them both.

Sophie had her first litter of six beautiful Mals on March 18th. Three boys and three girls!. See our litters page for more details.

BISS AM/CAN Ch TaolanQuest Sharp Dress'd Man (Polo) has been a busy boy on the show circuit. He's training and traveling with our Professional Handler, Debbie Coggin. Polo was invited to Eukanuba in Tampa where he received the only Award of Excellence in the Mal ring, behind "Costello," the ultimate Best in Show winner. We wre really proud of that outing! After a few local shows he then made his debut at Westminster where we enjoyed the weekend with the deepest snow fall on record in New York City in 150 years. A whopping 26.9" and that is a lot of snow! But Polo loved it and he and Debbie never missed a beat. We had a great time at Westminster and congratulate Costello on taking Best in Breed. Polo then went on to win Breed in Houston and in Louisiana and is booked at shows every weekend throughout the Southeast for the next several weeks.

Our boy "Rowdy" is out of coat so he is just enjoying being a dog, running and playing, getting dirty, digging, eating and laying around the kennel. He'll get back on the circuit before too long. Meanwhile, he is serving well in his position as 'leader and defender of the pack."

Our boy "Bigsby" has not been shown in months until a trip to Louisiana in March where he decided to win Breed for himself. He is still the laid back, beautiful sable boy that is Mr. Congeniality of the kennel! Whatever is fine with him.

Then there is "Sassy" who is the kennel howler! Every once in a while we take her to a show and she regularly wins Best of Opposite to hopefully one of ours, but other nice dogs as well. She loves to dig and would really like to be left alone to do it! She is the one that has to know what everybody else is doing or she is mad!

Of course then there is "Marla Maples," whom we call Marla for short but she is just so cute! Our puppy bitch already with one 5 point major and some single points in limited showing. She is always the playful one of course, because she is just a baby. Watch for Marla as she debuts at several shows in 2006.

Then there is "Sophie" who we certainly can't forget to mention in the news. Hopefully dropping her first litter in March 2006, she is Ann's favorite (we think). But that depends on the day, I guess. She is a sweet bitch and as smart as her breeder! We are hoping for some nice pups from this her first litter!

That's all for now. Watch for regular updates or email us inquiries@ixamals.com
