I love this 🤣. Shelters wouldn’t be overflowing with genetic nightmare dogs if people were responsible enough to buy a good dog from a good breeder and then be good, attentive owners. Instead of buying a quality dog, they go cheap, because why spend money on a dog you don’t plan to keep forever. For the most part, that’s what winds up in shelters. Poorly bred dogs (through no fault of their own) can have behavior problems and health issues…. So they get dumped in a shelter. I get calls daily from people wanting to rehome their dogs… and when I ask where the dog came from, it’s never a breeder. It’s always “my friend had a litter” or “my neighbor” or something like that. I tell them to give the dog back to the breeder, and they are puzzled. “They won’t take it back” That’s the difference… breeders do take them back. Because we care.

I’m not a huge fan of wire crates for this reason. They are potentially very dangerous, and not very dog proof. I always recommend Impact, ruffland or other similar professional crates.

Today in Gillette WY we took some of the dogs out to the “Gillettearod” fun walk. It benefits local vaccine clinics. What a fun event! They give out vials of “vaccine” and have dog and human snacks along the way. Tortik, Olaf, Serin and baby WY had a blast. Our kennel assistant Alicia and her son Jack helped out. Weather was perfect, sunny and warm. ❤️🐕❤️

It’s been awhile since our beautiful Olaf did a photo session, so after a good bath I took a few minutes to let him ham it up. He’s about to turn six in April, and is in his prime. We are so glad to call him ours ❤️

I couldn’t sleep tonight, so instead of staring at the ceiling, I got dressed and went downstairs to give Tortik a bath. I started at 1:30am and it’s 4:15 now. I took my time with him, as he really loves getting pampered. He had spent a month in California with Patty, and just came back with us this week. So he had plenty of farm dog dirt and some extra hair to part with. I’ve been hearing about so many people losing their seniors lately, and it really makes me appreciate the moments I spend one on one with my guys. Tortik in particular is of course very special to us, being our most titled and best producing dog (sired over a dozen champions and counting) but it’s more than just his wins that make him special. He’s truly one of a kind. I have lots of his kids and grands but I’ve not produced one yet that is his equal. Seeing him age is hard. He was a four year old when he arrived here from overseas, but it seems like yesterday. So tonight I made sure he knew that I was all his. He loves to be clean, and giving him a good bath has always been easy work. Now he’s tucked in his bed, with a thick layer of fluffy towels and a new bone. I sure hope I get the chance to make him pretty a thousand times again before he says goodbye. He’s just turning ten this year…but I know from experience these senior years just fly by.

Potty break on the road in Wyoming!

We are here at the Sunmaid Kennel Club show in Fresno, California this week! This is our “home” show, and we always try to attend. It was a great time for our Wyoming operation to come join the CA folks for a reunion and we really enjoy it. Saturday our 12 month old “Ryan” won his first major going WD/BOW from the open class. Ryan is the first offspring of AKC GCH Bueno Pardo Expressed Olaf AOM to hit the rings and he’s just loving it. Not only that, but he also had his second eye certification and passed with flying colors. Not to be outdone, our lovely Bizkit trotted off with WB, her second major.
Ryan is Anastasia N’ Miwuk’s Simbol Reis Ryan Express and is owned by Anastasia & Douglas Bopp & Patricia Pisano
Bizkit is Anastasia’s Simbol Reis Behind Blue Eyes and is owned by Anastasia & Douglas Bopp & Patricia Pisano & Reagan Fystrom. Expertly handled by Elizabeth Jordan-Nelson and ms.foreman21
