Latest news - Misty's daughter "Cloud" Grausturm Hearts Afire took Best of Breed and Best Intermediate In Group today at her first show back in Tas. She has put on a lot more weight and muscle since she is back and has been racing around every day hunting the birds. She is starting to look really fit. I think she is starting to give Kimba a run for her money. Liesl my middle one has been doing a lot of work getting her to run with her head up and Maree took her in the ring for this show.
