Louie’s first major!

Whoopdie-whoop! Louie snagged his first major this weekend!! The boy is officially on the board for his Championship! We have been so close so many times, it was wonderful to finally walk away with the points — especially on a major day! To add to the fun, sister Maggie and her owner/handler Catherine took Reserve to the major today too!

We are so excited to be ending the year with such great performances in the show ring from our Baby Halos. Cheeky finished her Championship and both Maggie & Louie have one major down. It’s pretty fantastic. While Jenny has been showing Louie, it means a lot that Catherine can walk in the ring as a first time conformation handler and put points on her dog. Makes us feel like Kai x Halo was a great combo! (As if we needed more assurance…Cheeky is such a bright light in our world!)

There is one more conformation show this year, so we’ll see how that goes, but for now we are just elated!

And to round out the weekend our sweet Karma was asked to be a demo dog at an acupuncture seminar. The idea was that Veterinarians from all over the world (seriously, one guy was here from Bulgaria) came out for a seminar on acupuncture. After all their hard studying and work, they got to practice (under the watchful eye of an expert) their acupuncture skills. Karma was more than happy to oblige..especially since they were pretty liberal with the treats!

Can you see the needles on Karma’s rear?
