2026 Iroquois Invitational Puppy Show

2026 Puppy Invitational blue ribbon winner

That’s a wrap!

What a day we had our Iroquois Invitational Puppy Show!

We loved hosting everyone—two and four legged—on Sunday at Boone Valley Farm. The hounds showed beautifully, and fun camaraderie was enjoyed by all…with over 100 spectators in attendance.

Many thanks to our guest judges Penny Denegre, MFH of Middleburg Hunt and Tony Leahy, MFH of Fox River Valley Hunt, whose expertise and presence was greatly appreciated.

Every hunt experienced much success in the ring—for which our Mid-South District can be most proud! As always, our Iroquois hounds and hunt staff represented our club incredibly well, winning four classes and bringing home a reserve champion ribbon in the Bitches Division.

And, a very special congratulations to our very own Kennel Huntsman Aliina Keers, for winning the Huntsman’s Award—given to the huntsman who had the most highest-placed hounds over the course of the show. Woot!

We are already looking forward to 2027, and are grateful for the continued support of our volunteers, sponsors and patrons.

Go Iroquois! The sporting life is the best life.
