Echo

Our first Silken, our first show dog, and hopefully our foundation bitch.  Echo is truly something special.

She earned her UKC Champion title her very first weekend of showing, competing against 5 other Silkens and placing in a large group of sighthounds.  She proceeded to earn her Grand Championship just 9 months later, in a show with a total of 10 Silkens entered.  By the end of her first year of showing, Echo had already earned her Emerald Grand Champion title and finished the 2025 year ranked as the #3 Silken Windhound, and the #1 female in the breed for UKC conformation.

Echo has lovely movement and has been described as "floating around the ring."  She has great substance and muscle for the breed.  Echo exhibits good lure drive, having competed several times in FastCAT, CAT, and lure coursing fun runs.  She is confident, biddable, and overall a joy to be around.

We are excited to get Echo involved in AKC conformation and coursing now that the breed is recognized by AKC FSS.
