A freshly bathed Poodle puppy is a very excitable baby! Hard to tell from these photos, but at 7 months Geni is now 22 inches at the shoulder and towering over the welshies! But she does bring out the 'puppy' in all of them!
Dugan & Friends! New snaps from John of the funny boy with his housemate Dexter and an adorable Granddaughter! Too cute!
OK - yup - it's a Poodle. Sarah & Rico's 7 month old puppy Geni is with Ann Rairigh of Litilanns Kennel in KY. She was sent by her Breeder & Co Owner, Karen Green and made her debut in FL during 6 days of a big 12 day show circuit!
This is a family reunion photo from Albany, OR, at the time of the 2009 WSSCA National Specialty. L to R is Miss Bailey with Brody (Gavin son), Kit Goodrich with Gavin and his dam, Spring, Kayo Bourne's daughter with Dugan (Gavin son) and John Bourne with Dexter (Gavin grandson) and Sarah Haftmann with Kyra (Gavin Granddaughter.)
It was a real treat to have people and dogs from
WA, CO, & UT all end up together in Oregon!
And, hard to believe it has been almost a year ago!!!
SNOW in TUCSON!
February 2011 ....
Cayton Gee has very playful 'parents' who took him up to the mountains near Tucson to find even more snow than they'd received at home. Pictured on the left with Arnold, and above doing that tummy rubbing stretch on the nice cold stuff! by the time he was done there was a volleyball sized snow mass attached to his chest! We assume he hasn't seen snow since he left Utah 2 years ago!
OK ...another poodle update! This shows Geni (white one) at the Western PA shows the last weekend of March at 10 months. She took a 1st & a 2nd in her class of three!
The week before that she was at the big 4 day Kentuckiana show and took Reserve one day.
These shows had very big entries of standard poodles.
Seems that Sarah & Rico's girl is coming up in the world!
This handsome boy is Truman who
we co-own with Carolyn Zucker. Truman is a Gavin-Kaci son and our first home bred welshie champion having been finished by Carolyn before he turned 8 months old,
and, just a year after her introduction to dog shows!
Two years ago he was the youngest entrant a the WSSCA National in KS and this year he will make an appearance in Harrisburg.
Go Turman!
