July 5th, 2009 *** Hey Thornapple family, I have great news again....
Today Janay became WB again, and she is almost naked ;-), I really didn't expect it, I was in doubt if I should go ;-)
only 14 months Dutch Junior Champion and very close to her Dutch Championship, she only needs 3/4 point, but I can
 only finish her after her 27 months. It was so hot, really extreme, in the ring you almost were fainting.....and the poor dogs,
We could leave earlier, normally we need to stay. I feel free to let you know the other thornapple family news here.
Sydor -
Thornapple Shoot the Slapshot from Petra was BOB, Alex - Thornapple Double Jeopardy from Petra won
youth class and TJ
Thornapple Thunder Jam from Jenny second in youth class so it was a good thornapple day in the Netherlands,
17 Aussies entered and 4 Thornapples LOL. It was nice to see, half brother and sister were WD and WB.  So the CAC's and youth
CAC's are taken by the thornapple clan.....(Janay was also in youth class)    Rianne and little Miss Janay
WOW -- ALL of the CACs!  Congratulations!!!!!



June 29, 2009 --- Rianne shares photos of her crazy Aussie water dog!

Sorry but what have you sold me LOL....
She is really crazy hahahahhaha.....it wasn't meant that she used the bath
this morning it was still there from yesterday, we have nice warm
weather....so she decided by herself to take a bath....

 
 
I think we sold you a FISH Rianne! :))))


 


June 6, 2009 -- Janay passes the mental test in the Netherlands!
We are back from the young dog day, and Janay is ok LOL. She passed the little mental test and she was exactly doing what I have expected.
We needed to use a flexi lead, but she doesn't know such line and she thought YESSSS PLAYTIME and started running over the grass.
With the first test, she was jumping to the women who gave me a hand, and then she was chewing on the orange pawn with # 1 on it LOL,
yes thats Janay LOL....no problem. Then we walked to # 2. There was a strange noise coming but she was already jumping and running
 in front of me. She was a little bit shocked of it, but within one second she was walking to the gear were the noise was coming from, to
look what it was. All this time you may not talk to your dog. Then we walked to # 3, again jumpy running. There was a white shirt pulled on high,
then she was really shocked and ran away, but with the long line she was stuck. I needed to lose it and then she came looking with me to the skirt.
 The last thing was, playing with me, with a toy, and she was as normally jumpy and happy. She passed it and the people were laughing about her.
They said she is so active and enthusiastic. They said she is one of the Aussies with kangaroo in her lines LOL! They said she is a dog who will do
something first then think about it. They liked her. This is how she really is but you know that! LOL! She was with you for her first 5 months. The
judgment of how she looks is also ok but that could not be wrong with such a young DJCH! We have a show on Friday. I will take photos of Alex,
Paisley and Janay together at the show. TJ will also be at the show.
CONGRATULATIONS on passing the mental test Rianne & Janay!
 
 

 
 
     
Beautiful Janay survives the mental test!

liked to play with Janay. There were277 Aussies entered.

Janay was in 9-12 months class and there were 12 bitches entered. It

February 15th 2009 *** GOOD NEWS from Rianne & Janay in the Netherlands!

He was very nice for her, and give her a very good write up, and an
Excellent, and other people told me, thats very good in youth class, in
Germany because most of the time they don't become an Excellent, most of the
time a Very Good.
