Home ~ Our Dogs ~ Currently Showing ~ Litters ~ Contact Us • Sire: Ch. Chardon Van Meter Meteor • Dam: Chardon Kentucky Julep • Breeders: Dr. Chuck & Donna Kitchell & Linn Yertzell • Owners: Tracey Hargis & Cathleen Hargis • March 5, 1996 - October 14, 2007 Patty is the dog that taught me that dog shows are not easy. She's the dog that would test you and keep you on the ball! She is witty, smart, and testy. She is now a couch potato and is very happy laying in the sun all day. She may be old, but she still is a spit fire little girl! Patty came from Chardon Beagles, Dr Chuck & Donna Kitchell and Wildland Beagles, Linn Yertzell. Patty started her show career with a bang, her first weekend out she went BOV both days beating a special, she was pulled in the groups both days, and Patty and I acquired our first juniors win together. After this weekend I was bitten by the show bug, and Patty was not. We continued to show until she was 3 years old, won many BOV, had many pulls in the groups and many junior placements, however Patty hated the show ring more and more with every win, so she was permanently retired from the ring and a family pet from that day forward. And she likes saying at home a whole lot better!
