Jersey - Fun in the Field

Jersey, Grayhart's Goin Someplace Special, did just that and spent a day in the field on Wednesday, learning how to retrieve, point birds and play in the water with her BFF, a GSP named Emma.

Awesome retrieve for a 3 month old puppy! Emma and Jersey
Jersey's not yet ready to swim but is quite willing to wait for Emma to get close enough for the big steal...

I know there's a bird in there!

Marshall's Awesome Major Weekend!

Laura and Marshall did it again, and for the 2nd time during the MN show circuit, win a 4-pt major!!! Marshall went Best of Winners and Best Opposite!

Marshall, just shy of 13 months old, now has 12 of the 15 show points, along with the two required major wins, needed to become an AKC Champion. Laura and Marshall have done an outstanding job and we are so proud of them!

Marshall's Major Win!

Congratulations to Laura and Marshall, Grayhart's In from the Storm, going Best Of Winners for a 4-point major today in Minnesota from the 12-18 month class under judge Terry Stacy!!!

That gives Marshall a total of 8 show points with one major, making him halfway to being a champion. All of his wins have been owner handled by Laura.

Mason's First Show...visit.

I wanna be a show dog when I grow up!
This stacking business is pretty easy. Mason shown at 12 weeks.

Gaiting...sure I'll follow you anywhere for that liver!

Mason, out of our Trixie-Zeke litter, attended his first show as a spectator and to work with Zeke's breeder, Pat. He loved all the attention and impressed everyone with his outgoing personality.

Trudy the cutie!

Trudy is the center of attention at her house. We cannot wait to have her come back for a visit!

Weekends at the Lake House

Matilda is one lucky pup to spend weekends at the family lake house with Kim & Shane, brother Soprano (the Sheltie) and other doggie friends.
Exercising & runs by the water include games of fetch and keep away. Matilda is signed up for swimming lessons this summer.

Spa treatments

Relaxation in her favorite basket

After a full day of activities, this puppy is ready for bed.

Jersey's Closeups

Beautiful Jersey aka Grayhart's Goin Someplace Special

Maggie & Dexter

Maggie, Grayhart's Special Magic, was thrilled to meet her new brother, Dexter, a two-year old chocolate lab.

Even though she's much smaller, Maggie has already established who's in charge!
They love to play together and having Dexter there made Maggie's transition to her new home seemless. In a year or so, this picture will look quite different when Maggie will be taller than Dexter.

Trudy Snoozin'

Naptime for this little girl...

Sweet dreams...

Awwww!
