Yesturday Yogi and I entered our first agility and obedience competitions. We are still beginners and signed up as novices. We did very well considering we both are rookies. I was very proud of Yogi. He made most of the obstacles in the agility course, and did a fantastic job with obedience despite the lack of treats. Toward the end, however he did decide that sitting would be much more comfortable in the shade and we lost some points for that. We received wonderfull kudos from the judges and the older, more experienced handlers were great about giving me feedback and things to work on. The obedience judge said the dog had great potential and that she would take him in a heartbeat. |

Thought I would let you know that Raven just got two of her agility titles and qualified 9 times all with class placement. Two were firsts.We have missed all kinds of shows this spring and summer as I broke my leg and was in a cast for 10 weeks and am still in therapy, so we get to start again.

She has her hips OFA next Tuesday. She has been doing Agility with my husband and daughter and they have also been training her for Canine Water Safety. She thinks she is a LAB in the water. I have attached pictures we took and will send you the ones at the show when Frank Jensen gets them to us. He got some great shots. If you go on Frank Jensen Photography under EMAC July 27th she is under most of the classes listed as Level 1-2

Dear Thornapple family,I hope not everyone around the world with a dog with Thornapple origin send pictures to you! Nessies parents are Thornapple Aftershock and Thornapple Mandarin Passion. She was born in July 2006.I am so very grateful for her! I have had dogs for… 50 years now (wow!). I have loved them all (almost…), and you can’t compare them. But Nessie is exceptional, extraordinary and outstanding. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
She’s warm hearted, happy, faithful, very “physical” (she hugs, kisses, bites,tackles, uses you as a pillow or a bed), she is brave and curious and don’t hesitate in any situation. She never runs out of energy and always gives you a hand (a paw?) with whatever you are doing – but at the same time she relaxes in only a few seconds if nothing happens. And of course she is smart and easy to train. So what can you say? She is PERFECT! |

The picture where I carry her in front of the castle in Stockholm, is from her birthday party. At least if you ask her! But it was just a But it was just a coincident that we were invited to a party on a boat that day. Stockholm was the host for ships participating in “Tall Ships Races” that weekend, so the quays of Stockholm was crowded with old beautiful ships. There were salute and hullabaloo – just worthy the celebration of our princess Nessie. All the best, thank you very much – and congratulations to a successful breeding!!

Just sending a quick update.Sonic's doing great and he's still such a sweet puppy! He's in that gangly phase but he eats alot. He went to the big dog beach for the first time yesterday and went crazy in and out of the water, and I'm taking him to puppy classes (he is actually one of the better behaved dogs!) Hope all is well with you.Virginia

Just a couple pictures of Cloud on his first birthday, in front of an apple tree, but where else for a Thornapple kid, and of Rain doing weaves.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
These were quite a feat to take since I was doing them alone and Cloud sometimes does not understand the concept of STAY and Rain to come to me doing weaves while I am trying to focus a camera at the other end of the poles, but I guess that is a good thing for him to weave without me beside him. |

LOL And with all that going on and all the apples on the ground, which draws the wasps, I was stung in the thigh.That was interesting trying to continue taking pictures and the feel of the sting:(( Thanks for allowing me to share, Betsy
