I love my puppy owners!!

More GREAT news from Stacie (and Revy) in Michigan.

(Revy is out of the Nala x Ch. Coree litter.)

Since I am not as good at all the agility letters... I asked Stacie to type me up what all she and Revy did this weekend. This is what I got:

PlumRidge All Reved Up RE CD PT NA NAJ

Earned 1st place (a PERFECT score) in Open Standard Agility, and 3rd place (perfect score beat by time) in Open Jumpers with weaves on Saturday. Sunday once again Revy earned FIRST PLACE (perfect score AGAIN!) in Open Standard Agility, (unfortunately we NQ'd in JWW's).

I am so proud of you two!! You are AWESOME!!

NEW TITLES!!

I have been a bad blogger!! (yeah I know I am sorry!!)

Last weekend was the four day dog show series in Indianapolis (Indy Winter Classic). Plum Ridge puppy owners worked VERY hard training prior to the show and came out with NEW TITLES!!!

***File Photo***

"Tiger" is now:

PlumRidge Wenu Tigerwood Win RN (AKC Pointed)

Tiger is a Sydney x Ch. Coree puppy owned by Janet Shepherd. To brag even MORE, he finished his title on Saturday, so she moved him up to Rally Advanced on Sunday and he got a LEG toward his Advanced title the next day!

GOOD JOB!!!

***File Photo*** (yes Jill we NEED new photos of your boy!!)

Little Baby "Blu" finished his Companion Dog Obedience title this weekend with scores all three days in the 190's (he was in the placements too!!)!!

So Blu is now:

Plum Ridge's Once N' A Blu Moon CD

Blu is a Coral x Vegas puppy owned by Jill and Homer Rodgers.

(and thanks Homer for helping me with my vehicle problems on Friday... you were a life saver!!)

More exciting news from MI!!

***File photo***

This past weekend I got wonderful messages from Stacie and Revy (Nala x Coree daughter).
They were at an agility trial for the weekend. The hard working girls walked away with placements (firsts even!!) and Revy has a new title (WHOOOO HOOOO).

She now is:

PlumRidge All Reved Up CD RE PT NA NAJ

I am so proud of both of you!!

We are VERY excited!!

Ike's New Champion Photo

A great way to finish (5 point major at a specialty!!)

Congrats Stacie!!!

We have a new AKC CHAMPION!!

(**File photo**)

Yesterday at the USASA Specialty Ike went Winner's Dogs under judge Linda Robey for a FIVE Point major to finish his AKC Championship!!

Ike is owned by Stacie Coates (I just co-own him). He was handled by Heather Blackford (THANK YOU !!).

Ike is now:

AKC CH. Stoneoak PLUMRIDGE Bronze Icon!!!

Ike is a son of our "Tanner" and "Tailor".

I am so proud!!!

If you can't stand the heat....

THEN GET IN THE POOL!!!

Talk about Talent!!

Hero is the boy that came from Germany. He is a Slick (Isis x Tanner daughter) x Gibson son.

I am not sure why he feels the need to 'perch' on the edge of the kiddy pool with his back feet, as he already has gotten his front feet wet by standing in the pool... but he does!! (maybe he is trying that two on two off agility move!!).

YEAH more good news from Revy!!!

***** File photos*****

Just got this GREAT email note from Stacie Coates who is the PROUD owner of "Revy" (a Ch. Coree x Nala daughter).

"Just got back last night from a two day class trip with the kids and when I got home the Aussie Journal was waiting for me, and to my surprise

Revy finished #6 in Rally Excellent A for the 2009 year!"

WAY TO GO GIRLS!!! I am so PROUD OF YOU!!!!

MORE points for TIGER!!

** File photo**

Tiger is from the Ch. Coree x Sydney litter. He is owned (co-owned by me), loved, and handled by Janet Shepherd. I can honestly say I don't know of a more 'spoiled' dog that Tiger. BUT Tiger doesn't take advantage of it like he could!!

I got the message earlier today, to say that Tiger earned another point while showing at the Kokomo shows today.

YEAH for Janet & Tiger... sorry I was not there to see it.

GO GET' EM tomorrow!!

Tiger doing Rally!!

Tiger is one of the Sydney x Ch. Coree puppies!! He is owned by a great lady that works hard with him in so many venues (she shows him conformation, does rally and even has taken him tracking!!).

His debut in the Rally Obedience ring was this past Feb. at the Indy Winter Classic dog shows. Please excuse the poor quality video (it was done on my iPhone).

He got great scores and was so happy to work for his Mom!!

Here is Saturday's video:

I am so proud of you guys!!!

Gayle is looking for a home

Gayle is back here with us and looking for a wonderful companion home!!

Here is a link to her original website page: http://www.plumridgetc.com/gail/index.htm

She is housebroken, polite, good on and off a leash. She has already been spayed (would do well in altered ASCA for anyone interested in showing) and ready to go to a new home!!

Interested parties are welcome to inquire.

Finally some photos of the new guy!!

Well I was able to get photos of one of the 'new' additions!!

His call name in Germany was "Grizzly" ... but I have decided to register him as PlumRidge Sunnycreek Guitar Hero so I think a call name change will be in order (put your thinking caps on guys .... send me suggestions!!).

The father to this pretty boy is "Gibson" he is a boy living in Germany but bred here in the US.

His mother is "Slick" who is from my breeding of "Isis x Tanner". So this pup is actually a grandson of "Tanner" who resided over in Germany for a while standing stud.
http://www.plumridgetc.com/slick/index.htm. (Slick is also pictured on the blog to the right)

I adore his head!!!

He is quite the 'mover' so far as well. I pretty much see him 'trot' everywhere!! (and he can keep up with the other pups who are running!!)

His foot timing is very good!!

He also loves to go for rides!! If you leave the side door of the van open ... he crawls right in!!

THEY ARE HERE!!

Sorry no I don't have photos!! (I even did take my camera to the airport!). But poor Mryjam and her friend were pretty worn down after the fiasco getting to Indiana.

The original plan was that the dogs would arrive late (11:30pm) on Wed. night .... YEAH that didn't happen!! They spent the night in the airport in Atlanta instead.

So after 500 miles of driving (I had to go back home once to handle Mishka and her diabetes) and a few texts changing the times and plans...

Tanner and his daughter and grandson are HERE!!

With all the rain and winds... I have not had a chance to get photos. They will be coming soon I promise!!!

Pups coming from GERMANY!!

These wonderful pups are headed our way all the way from Germany!!
This little blue merle girl is a daughter of Tanner and actually a half sibling to our "Tiger" and "Lil". (We shipped her mother "Sydney" to Germany a few years ago).

This adoreable face is landing tonight!! He is a son of "Slick" who left to go to Germany last year!!

We are very excited to get to meet our new additions!!!

Tanner is headed home from GERMANY!!

Tanner will be arriving home from Germany TONIGHT!!

Weekend Wins

I had a very tough week this past week. For that reason I chose to stay home from the local ASCA show. (it was hard to stay home but I did).

** File Photo**

Meanwhile, the PlumRidge Pooches (or those related to our guys) were out there doing great things!!!

At the UKC show in Michigan on Friday March 12th, "Ike" (Tailor x Tanner pup) took 1st in the Champions class at the first show and BEST OF BREED in the second show!

Good job STACIE AND IKE!!!

Above is a beautiful Carver son. This pup is from the Sunnycreek Aussies breeding of "Carver to Peach". He resides in Germany. He took a Reserve Winner's Dog over a large entry at an ASCA show in Germany!!

GOOD JOB to all!!!

I am very grateful to all the great news over the weekend!! It sure helped my spirits!! THANKS GUYS!!!

One WORD

MUD!!

Sophie starts her new adventure!!

Sophie (Erika x Carver) has headed to a wonderful home on an Alpaca Farm in Westfield.

They came to the Pet Supply store to pick her up and of course the "toy selection" was awesome ... I am sure that Sophie will be all set for quite awhile.
