      In 2012 my best beagle friend Helen Hemby of Sureluv beagles and I decided to breed my Huda to a boy that she had breeding rights on.  In honor of our friendship, we decided to name the puppy we kept from that litter "Sureluv & Copper Sky Thats What Friends Are For".  Three years later, on March 8, 2015, we made good on that promise and our little Saddiqa (which means "friend" in Arabic) was born into this world.


      Saddiqa was a little firecracker right from the start, and her attitude and enthusiasm gave her considerable star power in both conformation and performance.  By the time she was six months old she had won a UKC Best Puppy in Show, a UKC Reserve Best Puppy In Show, an IABCA Best Puppy In Show, two IABCA REserve Best Puppy In Shows, three IABCA Best Bred-By-Exhibitor Puppy in Show, and a Reserve Best Bred-By-Exhibitor Puppy in Show.  Primed for her debut in the AKC conformation ring, she quickly finished her Champion title at only 14 months old.  But before earning her champion title, she eared her Rally Novice title with a first place finish at the National Beagle Club National Specialty Show at only six months and six days old with three back to back qualifying score, also qualifying for the National Rally Championships at the Novice level.  She followed this up by earning her Beginner Novice title in formal obedience at only eight months old and her Preferred Novice title at barely 14 months old.  She became eligible to compete in agility at 15 months and earned her first agility title, Novice Agiliy Jumper, at 15 months and 11 days old.  She also became my first beagle to compete in a field trial, earning Next Best Qualifier and qualifying for the Derby National Championships at exactly one year old.

     Saddiqa recently returned to the show ring to finish her Grand Champion title, which she accomplished in style by earning 19 Grand Champion points with four major wins in a single weekend.

     As of October 2018 Saddiqa has accumulated 28 titles in 6 disciplines: conformation, obedience, rally, agility, scentwork, and Barn Hunt.

   

     Saddiqa is co-bred and co-owned by Helen Hemby of Sureluv Beagles.
