CH Jakona's All Eyes On Me

DAM

Owner: Sarah Murphy
Breeder: Jeannie & Tyji Armstrong & Lisa Puskas

Elin is from Jakona's spring 2010 "Around the World" litter between Justice and Mimi. She came to live with me when she was 10 months old after finishing her championship at 8 months old, breeder-owner-handled by Jeannie. Elin has won or placed at every high-profile show she has attended and in July 2012, became the very first owner-handled Bronze Grand Champion Ibizan within the AKC at just 16 months of age. Everyone who meets her falls in love with her, she excels at everything she does and I couldn't be more pleased with her. She was a gifted show dog, winning Best of Breed at Westminster, Select at the 2012 IHCUS National Specialty and an Award of Excellence at Eukanuba. Elin's true calling, however, was on the lure coursing field where she exceled with a very limited number of starts. She has been Best in Field at the IHCUS National Specialty twice and currently holds 7 all-breed Best in Field awards. At the 2017 NLCC, Elin was 2nd in Veterans both days and, along with her granddaughter Audrey, won the Ibizan Hound Kennel Stake! She also earned her Master Courser title on the first day of the NLCC! Elin has reluctantly retired from the coursing field and now spends her days as a quality-control inspector of the furniture. She has the most wonderful personality which she has passed on to her children, grand children and great grand children. She is the undisputed queen of the house and all of the young dogs respect her without question. She is truly a once-in-a-lifetime dog that I am so lucky to share my life with. at 14.5 years old, Elin attended the 2024 IHCUS National Specialty where she won Best Brood Bitch.
