The American Rabbit Breeders Association held its 100th annual convention and show last month in Louisville, Kentucky on Oct. 7-11, and two Libby residents were there to compete.
Seventeen-year-old Jason Quintanilla and his mother Shanelle Hogan got into the rabbit breeding business eight years ago after they were introduced into the field by Shanelle's friends, the Oedekovan family, who reside in Kalispell.
The show, held at the Expo Center, draws breeders from across the country and it was the first time for Quintanilla and Hogan to compete.
