Our gorgeous boy Monroe (Absolutely Agape With a Bullet) has made the move north to be with his new family, Melanie, Walt and his new sister Hannah.  Monroe is so handsome that we were certain that he was destined for great things in the show ring.  But that’s not what Monroe had in mind.  He tried to tell us from the start that being a star was just not his thing.  What he really wanted was to be a loving member of a nice family where breakfast in bed,  playing, kicking back, chewing on chewys and going to the clubhouse was on the agenda for most days.   We finally listened.  Now Monroe and Hannah can trade going Best in Show and Best Opposite in their own back yard.  Ahhhhh……the sweet life.  

 

 

What a difference 2 years makes.

The weekend went as planned for Karen and Poppy, going Best of Breed both days at the Seattle Dog shows.  Poppy is back in the show ring collecting points for her Grand Champion title after producing a batch of baby bichons.  She is off to a great start!  (Poppy aka Ch. Absolutely Affinity Tootsie Pop).
