Dahlia and twin Daffodil are an exciting combination of two of my favorite does. They have Dotty as one granddam, and CH Ilene as the other- a matchup I'd started planning when I first bought Dotty. Add in Archimedes as a grand sire, and all the "pieces" are there for a pretty cool experimental pedigree.
Prior to Dahlia, I wouldn't typically show kids, let alone very young junior kids, at Nationals. However, I made an exception in 2021 for Dahlia. She has always been such an eye-catching kid with extreme correctness in general appearance. Despite being one of the youngest kids in the class, she placed 3rd. She has maintained this correctness and dairyness as a dry yearling while gaining in body capacity, again placing 3rd at Nationals (as the youngest senior yearling), handily picking up her dry leg locally, and winning her class at NAILE.
