May - 08 - Well, things are starting
to look up a little around here finally. My personal health is
finally starting to get back to normal and we are looking forward
to getting back into participating more within the sheltie world.
I've missed the shows and seeing sheltie friends. It's been a
long and rocky recovery from double abdominal hernia surgery
this past year.
Emma was bred to "Ashton" owned
by Holly Hatcher this past February but Emma did not take. We
have a few boys in mind to try again but am not rushing it. All
her testing will be done this summer now that she is two years
old. Her thyroid is normal. She continues to be a very sweet
and smart girl but lacks confidence when outside the home so
she will not be able to be shown for now. She has such quality
otherwise and at this point we could not part with her. She and
her mom Morrighan are inseparable companions and friends and
is very attached to us as a family. Like her mom she will be
here with us for their lifetimes. We just love our two girls
and hope to get some new pics this weekend of them.
March - 08 - We redesigned our website
front page and top page banner and finally got new pics of the
girls. The little cutie pictured on the banner is Emma as a puppy.
March - 08 - Rory is now owned by Wespointe
Shelties, Linda Poirier, of Canada. Linda took Rory to his Can
Ch last year. We are thrilled that he is now living with Linda
and wish them the best of luck in the future!!
March - 08 - We just received a very
nice email from Dianne Waldron to let us know how well her two
Rory girls have done so far and how much she loves them. We are
so pleased to announce that both of the girls since our last
post are Can Ch's! She also reported the following:
Porscha - has won an Award of Merit at a Specialty
She has won a number of Best of Breeds a group 1 and group 3
A Best Puppy in Show
A Best Puppy in Specialty Show
A Best Brace in Specialty Show and 5 Best Braces in Show with
Sister Mischa.
and is not even a year and a half yet.
"Also, Mischa her sister has won
a number of things in her own right, although the focus was on
Porscha as she had more coat. I look forward to taking Mischa
to the Spokane Specialty in April for my first appearance in
the States. Porscha will be at the American National also in
April and I will be showing her there. I am very excited."
Although we know their lovely dam had
a lot to do with this as well we are very pleased and proud when
Rory kids have done so well. The girls are simply gorgeous! Thanks
Dianne for letting us know about them. We look forward to more
good news.
Dec 07 - This past year proved to be
a good one for us in that we had our first homebred Am Ch, BISS
RiverDance Dressed To Kilt, Rory, who is owned and loved by Akadia
and Iona Shelties of ID. In their capable hands Rory zoomed through
his Am Ch with 4 majors and then traveled to Canada and gained
his Can Ch in short order there as well. He also has sired some
very nice puppies including one Am pointed offspring and also
two Can Ch in limited usage. He also placed second in his class
at this year's National. We are very proud of Rory and his accomplishments.
