Pictured in "Kansas" Finishing Photo is our dear friend, Gail Rathbun of Windswept Borzoi.  Gail has always been a big fan of "Kansas" - - for good reason!  Gail is the breeder of Ch. Windswept's Favorite Angel and Ch. Windswept's Glory of Echovesna, who are significant in Kansas' Pedigree as his great, great, great grandmother and great, great grandmother, respectively.  Through a joint effort of Rosemary Gregg [Crescent Borzoi] and Gail, they bred BISS Ch. Crescents Arctic Glacier x Ch. Windswept's Favorite Angel to produce Ch. Windswept Glory of Echovesna who was then bred to Am./Can. Ch. Sirhan Baryatinsky to produce "Sly", BIS/BISS Am./Can. Ch. POSH Echovesna's Islaev.
