Bella back in the ring!

Bella came back to the show ring in March and April 2016 at 7 years of age after having 3 litters of puppies.  She was Best of Opposite Sex in two of those shows and had a great time out at the shows again!

2015 National Specialty in Virginia!

In June my friend Lynne and I drove to Virginia taking Wyatt and Stoli to attend the 2015 Standard Schnauzer Club  of America's National Specialty.  Sarah (Ch Always Keepin' the Faith) was also there with her owner Darlene.  We had a fantastic time visiting with old friends and making new ones.  Here are some photos of the dogs from the weekend!

Odie - Always on the Go - who is Stoli's littermate - hit the circuit in California!  He finished his championship at the Woofstock circuit going Best of Winners for his 4th major!

Stoli!!!

Stoli and I had a busy Spring.  In February and March she earned her AKC Championship and also her International Champion title!  She also went Best Bred By in Show at the International shows and won the Bred By group at two other events that weekend.

 

Always Keepin' the Faith!!!

Sarah (Gr Ch Always Keepin' the Faith) has been busy on the East Coast this summer.  In June Sarah earned her Gr Ch title and in August Sarah won a Veteran's Group 3!  Sarah just turned 8 on August 1st proving she's still got it and MORE!

Houston Shows!!!

Attended the Houston dog shows in Mid July - 5 days of shows in a huge and great location.  We had a winning weekend and just as importantly, lots of fun.  Stoli (Always on the Rocks) came home with another single point AND her second major.  That gives her 13 points now with 2 to go for her title!  Wyatt (Gr Ch Always Notorious) earned more points toward his Bronze Gr Ch title, going select dog for a major.  And Diva (Always on the Runway) earned her first points - a major - with her novice owner/handler.  More photos to come once we receive them but here is what we have now!
