Michigan Thornapple owner, Laura Baylis (left), brought friends & Aussie lovers from the Netherlands! (and the BEST cherry pie ever!) to our October Thornapple birthday bash! We welcomed Jeanet de Paauw (middle) & her sister, Sifra de Paauw (right) to puppy photo day and Birthday celebrating! Jeanet sent us photos she took at the party. Thank you Jeanet!

L-R - Laura Baylis owned of a Thornapple girl named Star, Jeanet and Sifraw de Paauw from the Netherlands!

We hosted a birthday bash on October 8 to celebrate lots of Thornapple birthdays! Bill and Carolyn (pictured) joined us to celebrate their birthdays. We put everyone to work grooming and photographing puppies!

Carolyn holds her favorite puppy ... the black tri Diablo girl.

Shayna stayed warm with her favorite blue merle Diablo girl .... on a very chilly day! In spite of a huge bon fire later in the evening, we had to move inside early because of the cold weather. We actually had our first frost later that night.

Amy's mother-in-law, Sharon (Nana to Shayna & Austen), picked her favorite puppy, the blue merle Diablo boy.

I don't think we will be able to pry this puppy from Sharon's arms!

Big snuggles!

Shayna & Sharon have their own photo shoot!

Sharon's puppy poses for pictures.

Lots of love!

Marley loves puppies!

Jenny Poe was a big help with puppy photos!

A warm lap!

Amy picks her favorite puppy! OH NO ... it's Sharon's puppy!

Big hugs from Maria!

Shayna's puppy stays warm!

Sharon's puppy loves snuggles!
