Jada-IA city June 2010

After a week of RAIN we went  to the dog shows in Iowa City. Was trying for a major there but not enough entered. Left Thor at home as he only needs a major. Tartanwyn’s Dazzlin Solitaire~ Taira..took RWB to her 6 month old daughter Tartanwyn That’s What I’m Talkin’ Bout~ Jada who took her very first 2 points at her very first dog show on Saturday. Chris West~owner of our puppy Frosty, handled her for HER first time in the conformation ring. Great job! On Sunday Taira took RWB again and her son owned by Kerri Carter, took WD for his very first show and 1st point.

I attempted to get some candid side and front shots of the furkids.  Anyone who tries to do this by themselves….not easy.  Waiting for a sunny day was hard.  Hope you enjoy.  Let me know your thoughts or interest.
