This is Tapout. I rescued him from the side of the highway today along with a standard poodle. There was a four month old pap puppy, but a highway worker took him. Little did I know, my mother grooms the standard poodle. His name is Bobo and he is a rescue. He got away, along with Tapout and the puppy, from his trainer who breeds and shows papillons in AKC. Not only did I know the poodle, the pap handler is friends with two border collie people that my boss shows for. So, what a small world! We are going to get a male pap pup from the woman as well!

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!

I love this picture. It shows what not everyone sees. It's not all about the shows for me, or posting pictures of my dogs moving or stacking. It's about the bond I have developed with the dogs I love so much. I am a successful handler, which a lot of people can't and never will be able to say. Not everyone cuts it in the show world. But what matters to me is that my dogs know that win, lose, or draw they have my heart and always will. The bond I have with my dogs is one that can and never will be broken.
ps. little Atley is the fluff ball on the right about to run towards where Denny and I are.

This isn't even close to the best movement shot I got of Denny at the Charleston Shows this year.

Atley and i were BEST JUNIOR IN SHOW, my FIRST weekend back in the Juniors ring after knee surgery, with an entrie of over 30 kids!
