We had a blast in Des Moines (Kelly, Liz, Maria and I). "Timer" is now Champion Marquis' Showtime v Winwood :) Timer finished on the first day which was nice (he needed a three point major to finish forever... guess it helps to get them finished when you enter them in a show <G>). Thank you for the nice compliments on Timer. Fran Foster finished him and Kelly Salava, his other awesome handler was there to watch as well as Liz and Maria. Gucci got a major reserve on Sunday :) I think Liz told me that if one of Oscar's fourteen qualifiers finish that it would complete the requirements for his ROM. It would be so cool if it was my little Gucci that did it. Liz continued to receive compliments on how good she looks for her age - 40. She still wants people to believe that she's 34 but I accidently let the cat out of the bag <G>. We had a great time at the Fasano's, all of the puppies were adorable and they had a blast as well. Our little Oscar/Kida puppy Toby had a blast playing with the other puppies... it was alot of FUN! Thank you Frank and Kris for a inviting us for a great time! It was so nice of the Fasano's to treat little Toby as one of their own (including a potty here and there from ??.....) Good friends, puppies and beer .. who could ask for more? Congratulations to them as well for getting the major on Sunday :) *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Liana New Liana@xxxxxxxxxxx www.liananew.com *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2008.
