Vivi picked up one point last friday at least I got to see her in the ring. Very nice. A bit smaller version of her mother, Velvet. Puts her to 7 total. Not bad for three weekends out. And Jack picked up three more pointS putting him to 5 total. He is my Griffin son that I co-bred and co-own. His mother is a Diva/Marco daughter. Jack lives with his co-breeder/owner and is being shown by Kaz. So pretty good weekend…

I am in NC to see Vivi show and bring Questo and Pearl home to grow coat for PCA. Viv won a point yesterday – showed well. Nice to be qble to see her show. Looks like a bit smaller Velvet so of course, I like tha!!!

Yay… Merry’s sonogram today found SEVEN walnut-sized embryos.  Very Happpy!!!  Due date is January 9th.  Here are some pictures of my Merry — CH Luminary Merry Christmas (born 12/26/08).  She is adorable – was as a puppy and is still.  Bred her to Mondo – my newest champion– CH Luminary Black Velvet Sono’il IL Re Del Mondo.  Pictures of him too.                                                   TOO CUTE – LITTLE DOLL BABY!!!           first show win.    This one shows her outstanding movement…      And this was her big win at the national specialty.      And here are some of daddy-to-be…     His first day in the ring at 7 months.   His five point major at just turning 8 months.   And his four pointer not too long before he finished about three weeks prior to turning a year… Ought to be very  pretty babies…

  She certainly looks alot like her momma .   So purty, if I say so myself.  Hope she does well this weekend too – will see…

Here is a picture from one of her wins.  Looks alot like her momma Velvet!!

Finally got a show picture of Questo.  He is the second puppy of Velvet’s to show.  Littermate to Mondo, who finished already.  Started later because I didn’t want him to finish as a puppy, although probably would have.  But want him in the big national specialty next spring in the 12 – 18 month class and he can’t be a finished champion for that class.  He did win 6 points in his limited puppy career and this is one of the pictures.  So proud!!!   (btw, this is a proof but I”ve ordered the original…) 

I am thankful to all my puppy families out there who are great dog owners providing wonderful lives for all the puppies who’ve left here.  You enrich my life too.  I just had a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner with my family and am now downstairs with all the doggies visiting for the holiday.  Nice day today and now a nice evening, so they are getting plenty of outside play time.  Hope you all had a great holiday too. Please give my babies a big hug from their “Gramma”…

Well, hope I am not jinxing her chances for tomorrow, but just found out that she has won her first three days in the ring.  Thursday she won a point at a small specialty show, yesterday won 2 points and today got a 3 point major!!!!!!!!!!!!  Absolutely great – never shown before and wow!!!!!!!!! Whethor or not she does anything tomorrow — quite a weekend.  Cannot wait for a picture …

This is Baci – a Peri/Luca son, now about 5 years old.  Lives in
Charlottesville, VA with wonderful people.  He is so photogenic and these pictures are just great with good background that shows him off superbly.  Thanks Debbie, for sharing…    

Luminary Black Velvet Bejeweled With Emeralds – call name, Vivi won today — her first day in the ring. She is the fifth of my Velvet puppies to show, never shown as a puppy, starred just today and wins a small specialty show!!! Way to go , Vivi…
