Mom flew into Austin yesterday than on to New Braunfels and Canyon Lake for the weekend before she and my brother go back to his house in Waco. I am so jealous, I would love to be on the river this weekend or at Schliterbaun playing in the water then go to Gruene for Dinner.
There are majors in dobes in Longmont next weekend. Hopefully my girls will do well and pick up some points. I won't be able to go, Shauna will be taking them and I will be at home on puppy watch.
First weekend in July will be for the corsi and their full recognition into the working groups. I am double entering CO and OK. It will be my first weekend back at shows after taking the month of June off for the litter. I have the am staff, frenchies, dobes, corsi and mastiff confirmed so far for those shows. If I didn't mention you please give me a call.
The second weekend in July will be in Ventura and the third weekend will be back here in CO.

Blue Ridge Georgi MBIS in Durango CO today.

Good Morning everybody,
Thanks for all the phone calls and emails, you have been cracking me up. But these things are a serious matter, Yes, I was taken by the "I'm a Christian" scam once in my life.
Your emails are still cracking me up about it, you made my evening.
Have a great day I'm off to a dog show later this evening, the last one for me until the 1st of July.
PUPPIES DUE, YAY!!!!!!!!!!! My one and only litter this year.

OK everybody, We are leaving thursday around noon and should be there by 3.
Why don't we all try to meet at the show grounds at 5 to go to dinner.

For all of you asking about the complaints please feel free to contact me and I can give you the information.

Yesterday was a lot of fun. We went to the "Mike the headless chicken" festival in Fruita. Pineapple Crackers was the band playing after the Big Hair Contest. If you remember who Pineapple Crackers are then you are really showing your age.

Yesterday afternoon was really fun. We tried out a new helper with the bitework. The older dogs got to get a bite and have some fun that they haven't been able to have for a while and I got to work some of the young dogs and see what I have coming up.
To my great surprise Georgia (Blue Ridge Georgia) was unbelievable. Her first time even seeing a sleeve, we got a full mouth bite, she loved it and wanted more so she had a full training session. This is a young girl who is my big clown, babysitter to both kids and small animals and loves everyone. It's so nice to have a corso with correct temperament who wants to work, show and be a clown. It's also great to have all around dogs here. I'm used to it with my dogs but not with the corso. It's been a great pleasure to get corsi here that have it all balance, correct temperament, a willingness to learn and a love of people.
I think I've found my working dog and I can't wait to get started.

Trying out a new helper tomorrow. Anyone wanting to work their dog give me a call tonight so I can get you set up.
Going to Mike the Headless Chicken on Saturday, I have never gone. It should be a real kick.
One more time for those of you still calling. YES, his age was a lie and NO I'm not going to do anything about it. Really, Who cares if someone doesn't know the age of their dog? If that's all we had to worry about the world would be a much better place.

Thanks for all the phone calls and e-mails everyone.
Yes I know he was only 10 years old when he passed away. He is in a much better place now.

Off to the Durango dog shows next weekend. I love it when shows are so close.
I have schedules worked out just give me a call.

handling class

We have 2 frenchies, an english mastiff, a greyhound, 2 dobes, 1 boxer, 1 am staff, 3 corsi, and a newfie coming so far for handling classes tonight.

We are going to try to meet on Wednesdays at 6 p.m. for the next month and than go to 7 p.m.
