I wasn't able to go to the Barto shows, but my new puppy did: Atessa's Satisfaction of Aramist aka "Stone" was shown only under Kevin Reynolds and captured Best Puppy. I wish I could've been there; they grow up so fast. <G> Today I did see him in action in Raleigh under Bob Slay and he received a blue ribbon, but then, he was the only pup. LOL Stone was bred by the Scernis and Donna Calabrese, is being conditioned by Donna and Amanda and is being lovingly shown by Olivia. Billy and I intend on having lots of fun with Stone. After driving home from Raleigh, I decided to watch another dog show, in movie form: It's The Kennel Murder Case starring William Powell as the inimitable Philo Vance, dog owner and master sleuth. An added bonus? It's in glorious black and white. Peace out. Penny in NC The Farm Dog Forever ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2014.
