This was my first award from the AKC. It was with my dear Heidi. She was a pet quality St
Bernard. She was teased by my neighbor's son and a couple of his friends. I was forced to
make a decision, get some training for her or re homed her. I joined an Obedience Club and
learned how to train my own dog. Her & I had some great times together. We won a lot of
awards & trophies. She was also a wonderful nanny to my children. At one point I tried to
show her in conformation, but I soon realized, she was not a show dog. The other dogs
looked a lot different than my St Bernard. But because of her, I was bitten by the show bug. I
am a firm believer, that things always happen for a reason. Heidi was responsible for me
taking that first step in the show ring. Although Heidi was not Championship material, she
was to me the most beautiful, loving and loyal St Bernard in the world.

Bravo was my first Dachshund Champion. I still remember the day I first saw him.He
was in the show ring . It was at the Houston Astro shows. He was being shown by
Cookie Roush. It was his first weekend out. He was 18 months old and never shown.
Because his owner had litter brothers, she sent Bravo out with a handler. The handler
was told to show him & find him a good show home. I watch at ringside and remarked
to my friend Kay, "he looks just like Wing" (Ch Ladlands A Wing and a Prayer) the
number 1 dog at the time. She told me he was a Wing son and he was for sale. I
smiled. Ummh maybe :-) I just had to convince my husband I needed a new dog.
"Bravo" won back to back 5 point majors that weekend. And after a lot of talking and
pleading, I got my dog. He finished with a third major.

Shanghai was my first AKC Border Collie and my first Border Collie Champion!! I am
proud to say he was Owner- Handled. My husband made me so nervous, I made him
leave the building when I showed. He never got to see me show Shanghai.

Julee was my first Border Collie to be awarded a Herding Instinct Title by the AKC. She was 8
months old when she received her herding instinct certificate through the BCSA. At 9 months old
she was tested by 2 different AKC herding judges to receive this certificate.A herding judge (Jim
New) word to me were "She is a natural, now what are you going to do??" Julee is responsible for
getting us into the herding arena.

TinkerBell

Braeyden

Rowdy

Glory

Shanghai

Julee

From the first day our eyes met, I knew that TinkerBell and I were going to be soul
mates. I will never forget the day I picked her up from Florida, it was on my birthday.
Now she is my constant companion. Never out of my site. At her first dogs shows she
proved to be a clown in the ring but, after she matured a little, she came through like
a trooper. She is one of the most loving, loyal dogs that I own.
Note: Tinker finished her AKC Championships on another special day, my grandson's
birthday.

Julee is my brown eyed girl. She is so full of life. She is bright, intelligent and beautiful.
She is 3 months older than Glory & Rowdy but, you would have thought she was much
older. Because she was a surrogate mother to them. She took up the role as soon as
she met them and raised them for me. Julee loves people, especially children. Her
favorite past time is herding sheep.

Braeyden is my sweet boy. He is so much a Mamma's boy. His favorite place to be is on the
sofa with me. In the ring you can not miss the lovely smooth movement he possesses. He is
strikingly handsome and finished his AKC Championship with ease. Braeyden missed his
calling, he should have been a water dog or spaniel. He loves the water and it is hard to
keep him out of the pond. He swims all the time. I nicked named him " Mark Spitz. "

Glory is the dog I did not want. From the pictures Heidi sent me, Glory was the one that I did not like.
She was small, not evenly marked and the others were so much nicer. I wanted Whisper (perfectly
marked) or Cherokee ( with a beautiful head). But my husband fell in love with Glory as soon as he
saw her in Michigan. I am glad he did. She is one of the most balanced dogs I own. She is the perfect
package. Her structure is flawless. She moves like a dream. She is a happy, whimsical dog. She
loves to play and she has proved herself in the show ring. I would not trade her for the world.
