Strideaway congratulates handler Robin Gates, scout Hunter Gates, owners Butch Houston and Dr. John Dorminy and breeder Ray Woods for Shadow Oak Bo’s win of the 114th running of the National Championship. Not since Johnny Crockett in 1970 has a long hair captured the coveted crown of National Champion! Judges for the National Championship were Jim Crouse, Bobby McAlexander and Doug Vaughn.
