MBISS GCHB I’ll Have What She’s Having
“Estee”

DOB: 6-17-21

I knew Estee was special from the start and there was no question that I would keep her. She is an absolute joy to live with, and her show career has been remarkable.

Taking a 4-point major at her first show at the age of 6 months under renowned breeder judge David Alexander, she continued her winning ways, finishing her championship at the age of 10 months, then her Grand Championship, and on to her Bronze. By her 3rd birthday, she was halfway to her Silver under fairly limited showing and always breeder-owner handled! She has won Best in Show at multiple specialties and many Group placements at all-breed shows. A highlight of her career was winning Best White Bitch at the 2022 MBTCA Van Hildrikhusen Trophy Show and the Merlindan Movement Cup. By May 2024, Estee ranked #3 in the national breed standings. Ringside, her beautiful snowy white looks and charming personality has won her many fans. Of course, she reminds me from time to time that she is all Mini Bull (full of fire!) but I wouldn’t change a thing about her. Here are some of her glowing critiques from judges:

April 2024: BEST OF BREED

Lovely white bitch, a statuesque beauty. She caught my eye and held it against a gorgeous class. Typey feminine headpiece with good turn and nice fill, nicely shaped tiny eyes and neat ears. Lovely neck into a well laid shoulder and strong firm topline. Nice straight front and correct feet, deep chest, lots of ribspring and body volume. She drove well on her nicely angulated and muscled rear. Won on her overall balance, type and quality. I was so pleased that she later went on to win Owner Handled Best in Show!

October 2022: Best White Bitch, Merlindan Movement Cup

Very elegant and stylish girl with great construction and good power as well. Beautiful long, turned and packed head with great depth of muzzle. Tiny, dark triangular eyes, good ear-set and a keen expression. Very good layback of shoulder and upper arm angulation with a smooth blending of neck into her withers. Strong, level topline which held on the move. Very good spring of rib and depth of brisket, which extended well below the elbow. Nice, round bone and good muscling throughout. Correct rear construction with well-angled pelvis, good length and bend of stifle and good angulation. Moved very well with smooth reach and powerful drive.
