Chelsea Lynn | Our first Pom, "Chelsea", came to us by accident. When my parents moved to Louisiana, they couldn't take both of their Poms. So, we agreed to "babysit" Chelsea while they were gone. Well, that was back in 1990 and even though they moved back in 1994, Chelsea continued to stay with us. Chelsea went to the rainbow bridge at the age of 16. |
Cody | Owning Chelsea just sparked my interest in the Pom breed, so for my birthday in 1991, we got "Cody". He was the cutest puppy I had ever seen. He grew to be a big boy, at about 11 lbs, but he has been the best companion and very dear to my heart. Cody went to the rainbow bridge at the age of 14. |
Ditto | Here is JD's Ditto, "Ditto", going Best of Breed! He was such a fun little guy to show. Ditto went to the Rainbow bridge in October of 2001 at the age of 7. |
Peanut | Here is Winstons Simple Twist O Fate, "Peanut" taking Best of Breed over a Special! She was such a surprise from black parents, but what a little fireball she was. She was tiny and developed a health concern that lead us to having her spayed. She lived out the rest of her life with a wonderful family. |

Fletcher | This is Fletcher at about 10 months old. IABCA International Champion Eblouissant Caniche CD TDI CGC "Fletcher". After seeing my first Standard Poodle in person on vacation one year, I just knew that I had to have one. Fletcher has always been a wonderful companion. I never thought I would go in the obedience ring, as I didn't know that first thing about it, but Fletcher made it very easy. Fletcher not only earned his CGC and TDI titles, but we did go into the obedience ring and earned the CD title in just 3 shows, coming in first or second place at each show. His scores were 185, 191, & 190. Then, in June of 2001 at the age of 10, he earned his International Championship, receiving 3 top ratings from AKC & CKC (Canadian) judges. Fletcher was a grandson of Ch Maefare Barclay. His pedigree also contained the beautiful dogs of Peckerwood, Chorus Line, and many others. Fletcher went to the rainbow bridge at the age of 15. |

Ricky | This is Ricky, another Standard that I multi titled. Ricky earned his CD title at the tender age of 10 months. And he also became an IABCA Int CH at 7 months. Ricky also earned his CGC and TDI titles. |

Lucy | CH Winstons I Love Lucy. This is Lucy's first points. Lucy was born in September of 1994. We didn't start off with plans to show her, but in 1996, we had her evaluated by her breeder who felt she could finish. So, we started showing her and did finish her all owner/handled. Lucy didn't think she was a Bulldog... she thought she was a Standard Poodle! Lucy did not care for showing, but we had fun. Lucy continued to be our cuddle specialist until she passed at the age of 11. |
