Armon never attended one handling class and had never seen one 
single person outside of house help.  He was never allowed to be 
removed from his premises since he left me at 12 weeks old.
He came back to me at 16 months old.  Shortly after his arrival, 
Armon attended a dog show weekend with me to see the
world and "watch".

Shortly after, still at 16 months old, I entered him in SIX shows for
desperately needed exposure, socialization and ring training. These
shows were his handling and training classes.  They were the only
times he was ever in a ring.

What he accomplished was the beginning of his history:

4 Point Major under Monica Canistrini, 4 Point Major under Judy Webb,
4 Point Major under Polly Smith and finished his championship with a
3 point major under Col. Purkhiser. within six weeks of showing, all
Best of Winners from the Bred By Exhibitor class.

The two shows he did not win were won by my other
male, now Ch. Elmo’s Picasso’s Rage.

This dog embodies the signature Elmo LOOK.  He is totally
NATURAL and is VERY "Tuttie".  In addition, he possesses 
those unexplainable magnetic qualities that seem to turn heads. 
To punctuate that, his rare and even pale silver-blue color is so 
attention getting, it almost detracts from his anatomy and carriage. 
Armon is the full littermate to the bitch that recently finished under
Hound Authority, Pat Gilbert at the N.J. Hound Specialty show,
Ch. Elmo’s Suncrest Sweetheart Silverblue.
He lives with me now and I may show him limitedly myself once
I find the time to actually leash train him!
 

 He definitely will be greatly incorporated into Elmo generations
to come but I am not offering him at Public Stud.
