I purchased Jorja from Marion Daniel
of mar-Moye Labradors in the spring of 2003. Jorja
was a high spirited girl, happy and full of life!
In May of 2005, at the request of Marion, I showed Jorja
at
the Miami Valley Labrador Retriever Club specialty in
Hamilton, Ohio and she took first place in her class.
The next spring, we took Jorja to the Labrador Club of
the Potomac and she took first in her class again at
this prestigious show! Michael Silva (Shadowbrook Labradors) noticed Jorja and
approached us about showing Jorja for us and getting her
AKC championship.
We agreed to allow Michael to take
Jorja back to California and show her under a
co-ownership. Michael and Jorja did extremely
well, bringing in multiple BISS and BOS wins.
After about a year, Jorja finished her championship and
was bred to MBISS Ch. Wiscoy's Robin. We kept two
of the puppies from that litter and they are here with
us at North Country, Carly and Maggie.
Jorja now is solely owned by the
Silva family and resides with them in New Jersey.
Our thanks go to the Silva family, and especially
Michael, for doing such a wonderful job with her.
Jorja is one very special girl and will forever be in
our hearts here at North Country!
See some of Jorja's show record
below. She is a 4-time Specialty Winners Bitch
with 2 BISS wins and 2 BOSS wins!
