Welcome to the web site of Kari and Craig Smith and Kathy Ramussen (Blanchard, Oklahoma) - the partners of Rainbow Show Dogs and owner of Canine Sports Academy . We are owners, breeders, handlers, and trainers of show dogs, performance dogs and family pets.

In the late 1970's -  we started going to AKC (American Kennel Club) dogs shows. Our first show dog was a
Siberian Husky. and our biggest success came in the early 1990's with our Nationally Ranked, multiple Group Winning, BISS (Best in Specialty Show) Champion KisNTel's I See A Rainbow. Now we have her three grandsons, one is a AKC Champion and the other 2 have their CD's (Companion Dog) Obedience Titles  and all three have their RN's (Rally Novice) Obedience titles!  The two with CD's are also Siberian Specialty Show High Scoring In Obedience Trial winners.  One boy has his RA (Rally Advance) Title and another lacks one leg to complete his RA Title.  We have a new Siberian - his name is "Cosmo" Thank you to Bruce and Joanne Barnes for allowing him to join our family and we look forward to presenting him to the fanciers as he grows up.

In 1999 we added a
Cardigan Welsh Corgi to the line up. Our Cardis have earned Five AKC Championships, two CD and two RN titles in obedience. The eldest Cardigan is also herding instinct certified. We have produced four litters of Cardigans and all four litter's have started their success in the show ring including our first Bred By CHAMPION!

In 2003 - we added our third breed, the
Pointer to our family.  Three  have come into our home and all have earned their AKC Championships  - all finishing their title within their first year of showing!  We have one Pointer currently living with us, but we hope she's not our last.

In 2007, we decided to add a fourth breed - a
Curly Coated Retriever - "Desi".  Kari joined ownership with Dennis Akins and now we have the 2007 National Specialty Best of Breed Winner as part of the Rainbow Showdogs and She finished the 2007 show year as the #3 Breed Curly and #4 All Breed Curly!!  Desi has been racking up an impressive resume from wins at Westminster, Eukanuba Invitational, and now out in the field!
At the 2008 National Specialty Desi took Best of Opposite Sex!!!!  Desi was bred and the babies are safe on the ground - born July 7th.

We are also extremely proud that all four of our chosen breeds have been deemed worthy of winning awards at their given National Specialty Breed shows.

In 2007 Kathy opened up
Canine Sports Academy - a climate controlled facility built for the dog community as a place to train and learn. This wonderful business is growing in leaps and bounds and is getting praise from every angle of the dog business! 

Finally we have

The Rainbow Kennel philosophy is structurally sound dogs that can exceed in conformation and in performance events.
