This and That…

 It’s been a while since our last update!  We’ve been so busy with dog shows and family visiting from out of State, that I haven’t had any time to sit down and write.  

Looking back to my last post, we do have some news.  Our ZuZu won Select at another collie specialty show on May 2nd, which gave her a 3rd major towards her Grand Championship.  With her additional wins last weekend, she is now just 2 points away from her Grand.

And last weekend our puppy, Dean, won a Group 1st from the BPUP Herding Group.  He really had fun, and so did Sam and Shannon, which was the main goal.  They were unsure of themselves when we first arrived at the show.   But by the end of the shows, all 3 puppies were walking around the Fairgrounds with confidence and were loving all the attention lavished upon them from the spectators and other exhibitors.

We have also been doing a lot of Therapy visits, as we’ve been getting more and more requests.  It’s hard to keep up with all the requests as we are limited on how many visits we are allowed to make each week.  I hate to turn anyone down, as pet therapy has so many benefits!  We usually visit Quinnipiac University every 2 or 3 weeks, but they are now off until the Fall, so I agreed to start visiting another Nursing facility every other week for the Summer months.

We will hopefully have some very exciting news to share in just a few days, so please check back with us!
