Thank you, Lady Jag!
Woof!
:)
Bumping the thread, then off to clean the mess that GRAMP’S puppy made. She has a taste for CD’s, DVD’s, furniture, walls, you know. Things.
She’s not mine. His. She’s not pictured here so you don’t have to count her. :)
(She IS cute though........)
Awe...he looks TINY! How sweet! Up to $300!
Oh...Mr. Pookie looks way too cool. Thanks for sharing!
Let me introduce you to our two felines:
First, there is our Emma who is around 12 years old now. She is the sweetest, most relaxed cat in the world, and we own her!
Our insane cat is named Callie. I need to find a picture of her to post. She's about 3 now. She's pure Birman.
So, in the meantime, here's our Emma, in memory of Rusty.
Now if I didn’t know you better....I’d think your trying to milk me of my money!!!! Thank goodness it’s one pet per person :o)
Mr Pookie is *blushing*
That pic was when she WAS tiny.
She’s growed up real good. THAT one is MY perfect-in-every- way *gak* dog.
:)
BTW...only count ONE of my pics, OK? That’s been the same dog that I’ve been posting...other than the litter one...
Killian and Luna definately show “tudes”. Beautiful kitties!
Whoops. I didn’t see this when I posted a couple down from this one.
Carry on...
Nice to see that New Hampshire now has some donors.
Yes they will and so will the Thundy Boy who is a little bitty boy at 120 lbs. LOL
Note: Thundy may really be protecting his girls; but he will be protecting just the same. After all he is Big Daddy of the Group. ROTFLOL
Allie, you are precious.
The pet picture challange is still on so $10 is being donated in Lady “Da Wowzer Schnauger’s” name. What a sweetie!
The Labrador Retriever Club (AKC) is having its big national specialty here in October. Word is that there is going to be (besides the usual Conformation stuff) a Working Certificate Test (on a friend's farm where Shelley and Ruby have trained frequently!), and perhaps as many as four Hunt Tests on another friend's farm where they have also trained! In addition, there will be a Conformation Judge on hand to give Conformation Certificates to as many field Labs as want one and can pass the rather lenient test (I think they have to score 85% but I could be wrong, it could be 70%.)
If all goes well, Ruby could pass her Started (UKC) test in September at our club test (and if we're lucky Shelley could pass her Seasoned test), and then both of them could get their WC and try for the AKC Junior Hunter. Shelley has already passed 2 JH tests and did it on her head (she's too advanced for that really but we don't have many AKC tests here). They should both be able to get their Working Certificates and Conformation Certificates as well - Shelley has a beautiful body but a somewhat snipey head, Ruby has a perfect head but a rather lanky body. It may depend on how many points are allotted for head vs. body!
If they do 4 tests total Ruby could get her JH all at one time (assuming she can handle the marks) and Shelley can finish up her JH in two tests.
Shelley of course is spayed and has been forever, but I would like her to finish her JH title at least. Ruby I'm not going to spay for the time being. I had her DNA tested and she throws all 3 colors, we need to have hips and eyes and elbows checked after she turns 2. She probably has a common Lab genetic defect called EIC (Exercise Induced Collapse) and I'll probably test her for it, but it's so common in Labs that there's no point in avoiding breeding her, we'll just look for a stud dog that doesn't carry the factor.
Congratulations again on your beautiful babies!!!
At least Abby and Dolly turn their headlights on at night or in poor visibility!
LOL....Those evil eyes!!!!! Great pic!
Go FLORI-DUH?????
Good looking set there!
