Tuesday,
November 21, 2006. New photos of Bella's puppies added to
their webpage: Bella's
Puppies. The puppies will be three weeks old tomorrow!!
Monday, October 23, 2006. Our little Lovey is now in her
new home. JJ, pictured below, will be leaving for his new
home soon. The house will be empty without them, but fortunately
we will still have our wild little Portia here to keep us
entertained. Portia is our "keeper" puppy sired by CH Daisymead's
Powerplay and out of Am/Can
CH Calypso Audacity Strikes. She will be out in the
show ring in January! Also, we have updated
Wincent's webpage with
some great new photos.
Saturday,
September 30, 2006. We currently have a solid black male
puppy available to a show home. He is called JJ and he is
4.5 months old. His sire and dam are both Optigen A, OFA
Good and CERF Clear. Here is JJ at 4.5 months.
Also, I have updated many pages on our website including
our Agility page.
I need to work on a page for Tracking, as that is our current
pursuit. Looking for something fun to do with your English
Cocker Spaniel?? Try Tracking!! It has been a big hit with
the cocker crew here. Most English Cockers are chow hounds
and Tracking is taught with food!
Happy
Birthday, Sienna!!! What a happy dog. Thanks, Deb, for sharing
this great picture.
Sunday,
September 24, 2006. We had Bella entered at the Gig Harbor
KC shows this weekend, just in case she didn't finish at
the Wenatchee shows. Bella was our only entry, but we decided
to move her up and show her anyway, just for fun (-: Bella
went Best of Breed on Saturday and Best Of Opposite Sex
on Sunday. This was Bella's first weekend out as a special
and we were incredibly proud of these results!!
Monday,
September 18th, 2006. We had a wonderful weekend at the
Wenatchee Kennel Club dog shows. Saturday,
Bella went WB for 1 pt
and Sophie went BOB. Sunday,
Wincent went WD/BOS for
2 pts, Bella went WB/BOW for 2 pts and Sophie went BOB.
The 3 pts Bella earned this weekend finished her Championship.
She is now CH Eden Hills Attraction.
There was a puppy match in the evening on Saturday and one
of our young puppies, Lovey, took a Sporting Group 4 in
the match. Also, I neglected to post the news that
Ryan finished his OAJ title
two weeks ago. He just needs one more leg for his OA title.
Lovey Age 16 Weeks
Friday,
August 18, 2006. We had a great day at the Cascade English
Cocker Spaniel Fanciers regional specialty show!! Our red
boy, Wincent, was Best Of Opposite Sex in Puppy Sweeps from
the 12-15 mth class and Sophie was awarded an Award of Merit
from a very large entry of specials. We were thrilled with
these wins. Also, we went to an All Breed show last Sunday,
August 13th, for some practice before the Specialty. Wincent
was WD for 1 pt and Sophie was BOS over a nice bitch entry.
Not too bad for our first trip back into the conformation
ring after a two month break. Sophie has a litter of ten
week old puppies and we had several compliments on the wonderful
condition she is in for having had a litter so recently.
We are keeping one of her little girls and we can't wait
to get her out in the show ring in 2007.
Saturday,
July 22, 2006. Ryan's daughter, Quinlan's Burnt Sienna,
earned her first leg towards her Novice Agility Preferred
title. She was handled by her owner, Deb St.Meyers. Way
to go Deb and Sienna!

Sunday, July 2, 2006. Ryan was entered at an agility trial
this weekend, handled by Neil, and he earned his second
OA leg with a 1st Place and his second OAJ leg with a 2nd
place. This was their first agility trial in over a year!
They'll be out again at the Enumclaw trials in August.

Sunday,
June 11, 2006. Bella went WB, BOW, and BOS for 3 pts under
judge Nancy Gallant. Ryan's son, Mith, went WD for 3 pts.
Bella is up to twelve points now and will take some time
off from the show ring so that she can be shown at a Specialty
show or two (after she has hopefully grown some hair) later
this summer.
Saturday, June 10, 2006. Bella went WB and BOS for 3 pts
at the Puyallup, WA show under judge Linda Reidel. We were
so happy to see Bella take this win as she is completely
naked after blowing all of her coat last month. We were
thrilled to see the judge recognize Bella's quality, even
without her "party clothes."
Saturday,
May 20, 2006. Bella went WB at the Lynden, WA shows for
1 pt and Mith went WD for 1 point. Mith went WD again on
Sunday for another point. I also want to share a great picture
I recently received of Mandy taken at the Hunt Tests held
over Labor Day weekend at Scatter Creek in 2006. Photo copyright

Friday,
May 12, 2006. Ryan's son, Quinlan The Legend Lives On "Mith"

leg at the ECSCA National with a 2nd place win to finish
his RN title. Ryan's sire, Am/Can Ch Raccoon's Oh Boy At
Nohea VCD1 JH OA also finished his RN title at this show.
There is some wonderful news from the ECSCA general membership
meeting... it has been announced that the mutation causing
FN has been found and we will have a test in about four
months for this awful genetic disease. Woohoo!!
