Our show career began with these two little guys, our son Bryan Jr. as a Junior Handler and SnubNubs “Bam Bam” Boogie Woogie, back in 2019 making their debut at the Greater Ocala Dog Show Grounds. Unfortunately, COVID-19 put a hold on things after our 2nd show.

Following COVID-19, without missing a beat, Bam Bam stepped back into the show ring in a different environment, showing in the ABKC arena, and absolutely handled business. He became an ABKC Grand Champion in only a few shows being handled by our good friend Brandy.

New AKC Champion
On May 28th, 2023 we finally did it!! Bam Bam, our first puppy that we bred and kept back for our program became an AKC Champion! There were so many times where we felt down, hopeless…as if it wasn’t possible, but we stuck through each time and remained persistent in that goal we wanted to achieve. It’s not easy being owner-handlers and going up against all the professionals, but we proved to ourselves with this title that it is possible! He will now be pushing toward his Grand Championship Title.
Meet "Gritz"
(Gritz at 4 months old)
While Bam Bam is without a doubt the foundation to our show career, we have added a few more boys to his team. North Idaho’s Kiss My “Gritz”, our beautiful cream boy from our good breeder friend Stacy Douglas. We bought him from North Idaho Frenchies kennel at 8 weeks old and he is now trained, shown and maturing beautifully right here at SnubNub Frenchies.
Gritz has been progressing very nicely throughout the few shows he’s made an appearance at these past few months. He is currently showing in the 12-18 month class now and we are excited to see how he matures as he weaves his way through more competition.
11/11/22, Gritz earned Puppy Best of Breed and went on to place 1st in Puppy Non-Sporting Group judging at his first show and my first time handling.
At just 9 months old, Gritz earned his first major win for 5pts at an AKC show in North Carolina on 3/10/23
Meet "Lugo"
This here is our newest show boy and upcoming stud here at SnubNub Frenchies, Lugo. Known in the AKC world as, Pelis’s Chip Off The Old Block Santino at SnubNub. He is our handsome brindle boy from Sara Pelis in Kansas City.
Lugo made his debut with showing by entering the ABKC show ring on 4/1/23 at 4 months old. He managed to bring home two 1st place ribbons for SnubNub Frenchies. This little guy is so happy to be in the show ring and we have no doubt about him following in his father’s footsteps.
Lugo's father, AKC Grand Champion Dwayne Johnson Signe Du Ceil aka Santino (2021 Westminster Select Winner)
April 29th, 2023 Lugo was selected for Best of Breed and placed 1st in the Non-Sporting Group judging for puppies.
