On Saturday at the Tacoma Kennel Club show in the Tacoma Dome, Emoji–Absolutely Affinity Smiley Face:)–finished her AKC Championship, going Winners and earning the last point she needed.

Emoji is waving goodbye to the show ring–and hopefully headed toward motherhood. Sorry about the blurry picture, but Emoji was on the move and waving. Great to have her finished!!!

Our first dog show since November, this time at the Tacoma Dome and the Tacoma Kennel Club did a very nice job of putting on a show under the current Covid conditions (Pierce County has been rolled back to Phase 2). Sheri and Burrito (Absolutely Affinity Full of Beans) went Best of Winners and Best of Breed for a 4 point major on Saturday. Burrito’s littermate, Elijah, was Reserve Winner.

Donald x Violet’s puppies are SIX months old! What a fun and wonderful group of puppies they are….

Pixie, the pink girl, gets to spend her birthday at the beach! She had fun running in the ocean with her roommates Kevlar and Shae.
Bailey, the green boy, has been taking Zoom classes with his owners. He likes to hike, play in the snow and chew the legs of the kitchen chairs.
Blue, who was also marked with the color blue, leads an active life with his family. He has a friend, Teddie. I hear they get good and dirty on their playdates.
Dash, formerly gray boy, has a new car seat. I’m sure he enjoys being able to look out as he travels. He lives with his half brother, Chewie.
Bridget, formerly orange girl, is a delight. She loves to play with her toys. Squeaky toys are her favorite. She’s good at entertaining herself. She knows the command “Come” and (usually) complies.

It has been about 2 1/2 weeks since Belle (aka Red girl) flew to Arizona with Jerry to start her new life and big adventure. Belle has settled in nicely and is enjoying her new home and family. Pictured: Jerry holding Great Aunt Rose and Troy holding Belle–and yes, notice the blue sky, sunshine, shorts and probably warm weather–sigh!! Oh, well according to the weatherman spring will visit the Pacific Northwest this coming weekend.
