Bunny

MBIS MBISS CH Luxor’s Playmate Of The Year

Westminster 2004

Bunny is the top winning Ibizan Hound in U.S. history with 43 Best in Show, 133 Hound Group wins, and a two-time IHCUS National Specialty winner. She was ranked the #1 Ibizan Hound from 2000-2003 and in 2003 was #3 dog in overall rankings.

Bunny won back-to-back Hound Groups in 2003 & 2004 at the Westminster Kennel Club show. It was the time first that an Ibizan Hound placed in the Hound Group at Westminster, let alone win it. She also won the Hound Group at the 2003 AKC/Eukanuba National Championship.

Bunny retired from the show ring in 2004, after winning her second Hound Group at Westminster. Later that year she produced the first of two litters.

Bunny’s daughter, BIS MBISS HareHill’s Love On The Run (Zipper), followed in her mother’s footsteps by becoming an all-breed Best In Show and multiple Specialty winner. This is the first time in our breed that a Best In Show dam produced another Best In Show winner.

Bunny became a grandma in 2008 when her daughter, AM/CAN CH HareHill’s Running Wild (Josie) whelped her first litter. Her granddaughter, GCH HareHill’s Ace In The Hole (Jackie) is the 1st Ibizan “Grand Champion” and was the #1 Ibizan Hound in 2010 & 2011, and in 2009 (all-breed system). Her other grand-kids are AKC dual champions and Best In Field winners.
