He took second place out of 4 puppies in the 9-12 puppy class both days and his brother Mocha took first place. Arty is ready for the show ring so the next two month he will be in the ring being shown by Karen Munster. We are excite to have Arty out there with Karen. She is also going to take our homebred girl Willow. We do hope they both will do us proud with some points as young puppies |

| Well we finally did it! Arty took Winners Dog on June 15th in Ft Dodge, Iowa. Wow, what a win and then took Best of Opposite against our good friend Marilyn Budahl who was showing Ireland, Apple Acres Irish Eyes. Marilyn and Ireland got BOB and BOW. Which was a good choice by the judge. We were happy to take Best of Opposite. Watch for Arty as soon as he coats back up in the rings. What a wonderful attitude Arty has. He will go far in the show ring. |

| Friday Aug 22, Arty took Winners Dog under judge Judi Bendt..And our own Stetson took Reserve Winners Dog under judge Judi Bendt. And I wish to thank my husband (Pete) for handing Stetson in the ring. Then on Sunday Arty took RWD under judge Zell von Pohlman and handled by Nancy Howard. Many thanks to Nancy! Below some candid shots as we camped the entire week-end as you can see the dogs enjoyed it. |
