Go Maura! Zeb was WD/BOW on Sunday at the Met-Wash shows for 5 pts. under breeder-judge Rosemary Hubrich, as well as RWD the day before under breeder-judge Gina Jaeblon. Zeb was also owner-handed to WD/BOW under Charles Olvis, then WD again the same weekend under Helene Nietsche. Maura & Zebedee are making a great new team on the Dane scene!

Vegas is pointed from the puppy classes & is looking to follow his Champion parents. He was pulled for the cuts in a large National Futurity, plus took a 2nd in his regular class at the National. He also took Best Junior in Sweeps & was pulled for Winners Dog the same day his dam took a 5 pt. major to finish. Vegas, Valentine & momma Story--always breeder-owner-handled by Judi Arsenault.

Here is another example of the Story Book Litter doing somthing other than winning in breed--at just a year already a functioning therapy dog with owner Mary Lugo of CA. Click here for more of Mabel being more than a perfect pet in parades, therapy sessions and general "all about the town" dog.
MABEL is a new STAR puppy! And in March of 2009, as a yearling, she passed both her CGC & TDI with flying colors! Congrats to Mary & "stable Mable"!

Note on such fawn colored pups from Harlequin breeding: while never produced deliberately nor promoted as "rare" by the responsible breeder, these puppies are perfectly normal and the educated Harlequin breeder also neither denies their existence nor hides them, treating them as lesser.

12 pups born 8 January 08!
Our first litter since the dam here, Story, was born (2005), we are quite excited about our STORY BOOK LITTER, despite getting no show girls--just lots of boyZ! SIRE is a CanCH+CHIC import. Dam is a homegrown<G>girl ("born in the USA") within striking distance (both majors) of her AmCH, and is already CHIC, as well as CGC and TDI therapy dog tested. Littermates to the bitch titled & qualifying in all dog sports & female family full of working titles. Both families chocked full of Champions in AKC, CKC (Canada) and FCI as well. Sweet, biddable, people-oriented/animal tolerant temperaments. Futurity nominated litter.
Story will soon be back in the show ring to find those last singles (as always, owner-handled), while her sons join her in the Winners Circle. Click on Story's photo for her own page.See more of the sire (Paz) from photo above that links to his own website. A few photos of "the man" also below if you scroll.
