American Grand Champion
Ch. Saiyai's Thai Little Florist "Malee"
Malee showed in America from 26th July to 5th December, 2009.
Finished her American Championship on 7th August, 2009 by Erika Lanasa.
Malee became #4 Breed and #5 All-Breed in America for the year 2009 and 2010.
Thank you Erika Lanasa, for the very good job of putting Saiyai's Doghome on the map of American dog-show.
Malee has become the first Thai-bred long-coat chihuahua to become an American Champion. In the future, there may be other Thai breeders, or even Saiyai Doghome who have American Champions who are as, if not more, outstanding than Malee. But to be the first Thai-bred American Champion long-coat chihuahua, it will be the record that stays with Malee forever.

Malee was awarded the title of "Grand Champion" by the AKC on July 24th, 2010. The AKC email read:
Congratulations on your dog's attainment of the Grand Champion title. Being one of the first dogs to earn this new title is a great achievement.
