Thornapple Star Dust _ Star's first run was awesome. The second run she was stressed and decided to eat sheep poops instead. Baby Star aims to please at all times. Her trainers are wonderful.

I have specially chosen everyone of them, She is very young and I do not want her stressed out. I want every time to be an incredible party.We stop and have lots of parties. Hugs jenny

Thought you'd like to see these photos of Leilani This was her second Toss and Fetch Competition.

The first run we kept her on the long line and the second run was her first time off the long line!

It was super windy and don't think she caught more than 2 discs but we got some great shots of her. Andrea

Happy in Nova Scotia! This looks like a MICHIGAN mud pond!

Hello everybody! Some news from France!I do not know how to thank you for sending me a wonderful dog !!!

He is so nice, he LOVES Marin, my nephew. He loves to play with him as he had to do with Evan! Saturday afternoon, we leave in the west where we will celebrate Easter with all my family.

I have attached some photos of "Thornapple Born to Boogie" for you. Boogie and my red merle male Kirby have become fast buds and have a great time together.

He is in a puppy class once weekly and I'm sure we'll be keeping up the obedience classes for quite some time. Agility training will start when we have more foundation training under our belt.

Boogie loves the toy box and considers it his mission to empty it daily--if only he would put them away (actually he does sometimes by accident when he trades in one toy for another).

Ron and I and the 3 dogs take a long walk every day, so by evening we have the passed out puppy you'll see in the last photo.Hope all is well. Michelle Stauffer, Barkley, Kirby and Boogie
