What an AMAZING and MEMORABLE weekend it has been in Fort Myers, FL! My crew and I have learned so much on our first weekend in the ring and I have met some incredible people who taught me some invaluable skills that I will absolutely continue with.

Augustus
4x class winner
4x best male
2x best of winners

Misty
1x class winner
1x reserve female

I am really appreciative of the judges: Tina Camp, Matthew Proctor, Fred Hyer, and William Chrzanowski.

Thank you to Misty’s breeder, Maryann for coming out and celebrating your birthday with us and your sweet Misty girl. We really enjoyed our time together.

Requesting healing thoughts and prayers for these two as they are both recovering from surgery. The surgery was yesterday 3/4 and both boys are on good pain meds especially my old man. I fully trust my veterinarian who did a wonderful job on them. 🐶

Miss Misty (almost 6 months) and Mr. Gus (18 months old) got their trims for an upcoming show. We are going to continue working on growing coat. A huge thank you to Ella Hernandez for her time and putting up with my stinkers!
It’s been 14 years and a different species but I’ll be returning to the show ring again in April with these two.

snatched this amazing ODYB Calico clown up. So what would you like to see him replaced with on the this Saturday at 7pm?

01/17/2024

Many years ago when I was scared of snakes I was dared to hold one by a military friend.. from there I started watching videos and that ignited a spark. Brian became a person who I looked up to with his compassion for animals and the way he shared his knowledge. I could watch and absorb his knowledge, always waiting for the next video. I am thankful for him and my prayers are with his family during this time. I know Brian is at peace now and no longer in pain. I hope to be able to be at the LegaSea opening if all goes well to help support.

You’ll never look at relationships the same 🤯 No matter who you are, we all need a person or a community that inspires us to evolve into the best version of ourselves. Speaker: @simonsinek #lifequotes #lifelessons #positivity #positivevibes #goodheartedpeople #wisdom #wisdomquotes

Always pray for your friends. Always keep those you care about in your thoughts and prayers because you never know what they’re going through. @goatmindvideos #friendship #powerofprayer #prayer #healing #positivity #bekind

Introduced Gus to Barnhunt today and he is a natural. Barnhunt is a sport that teaches the dog to use their natural abilities to hunt for rodents. They will use their nose and hearing to search through a maze of straw or other obstacles and find a rodent (protected by a PVC tube) (NO RODENTS HARMED!) since Gus likes to use his nose and has wonderful drive to work this sport suits him well. The trainer who has been doing this for many years told me he is a natural and he will excel fast. This boy is amazing and I am so excited to watch him excel and continue to grow! #barnhunt #dogsport #dogsports #akc #ukc #standardpoodle #standardpoodlesofinstagram #standardpoodles #dontdoodlemypoodle #poodle #poodles #poodlesofinstagram #dogtraining

Gus and I did a quick search last night after our CGC. We are always working on improvements but I’m proud of him. #standardpoodle #standard #poodle #standardpoodlesofinstagram #nosework #noseworktraining #noseworkdog #k9nosework #dogtraining #florida #akc #ukc
