The dog on the TV is being taught how to fetch. Millie is enthralled.
Millie is 8 months old now. She does enjoy playing with her ball. She’s already pretty good at “fetch”.
Some of us took the long flight to Orlando Florida for the Royal Canin dog shows. It was a fun but very busy few days. Millie and Carlo celebrated their 7 month birthdays while we were there. This is the largest show they are likely to attend.
Millie met her Daddy, Lumi. He gave her a sweet kiss.
Tasheena is showing Millie. Millie thinks this is lots of fun!
The Bichons are (from left) Millie, Shae and Carlo. They are joined by their Flat Coat 7 month old friend, Tango.
The group spent three days in Monroe WA at the Whidbey Island Kennel Club. We had a great time and some good wins.
Junebug was Select today, giving her the third major win toward her grand championship. Kyanna did a fabulous job with her grooming and handling!
It’s been a fun weekend at the Whidbey Island Kennel Club in Monroe, WA. The young ones are doing well. Yesterday was Carlo’s big day and today Millie was awarded her first 2 points.
Millie, enjoying her victory.
Absolutely Agape Heard the Siren’s Song (Lumier and Junebug)
Although he almost looks like a different puppy in each of these photos, this is indeed Carlo, Millie’s brother.
Carlo has competed four times in the 4-6 Month Beginner Puppy Competition and placed in group three of those times (Millie beat him once!).
Both Carlo and Millie have now aged out of the 4-6 month class and are moving on to the real competition in the 6-9 month age group.
Millie has a new friend – Dino
They look innocent, don’t they?
Don’t be fooled!
Millie (left) is resting next to her Aunt Pixie after a fun playtime. There was blood involved! (but only because Millie lost a baby tooth)
Blue, who just had his 4th birthday, absolutely loves sticks!
Sticks with friends
The “Big Daddy” of sticks
Tasheena did a great job showing Millie. Millie doesn’t look too impressed with her win. However, she did try to taste the ribbons.
Millie and Carlo competed in a 4-6 month puppy show in Boise,Idaho. First dog shows are a lot for a young puppy – there is a lot of noise, a lot of dogs and strangers, a new environment. Millie did better than I could have hoped. Day one she was Best of Breed and got a Group 2 in the non-sporting puppy competition.
Day 2, and Millie is cheering on her friends.
