Whozierhurry Sends “Hola’s” from Mexico
I wanted to touch base and say hello. I bought WHOZIERHURRY last year when I was living in Mexico. I sold him to a trainer there and he is doing great! I keep asking for pictures, but do not have any recent ones. I will keep trying. He is gorgeous, sound and quiet enough for…

Brett Wraps Up a Great Season
Hi Becky and Elizabeth, Here are some photos from this show season. The Reserve ribbon was our first ever–and also the first of several this year, along with one Champion ribbon!

Rap It Up – Cuts Up at His New Home
I haven’t gotten on Rap It Up yet. By the time I got home Sunday evening, it was too dark to let him get much exercise, so it was yesterday afternoon before I could let him out for a good romp! And boy did he romp! We just missed snapping a pic of him when all fours were LITERALLY 3 feet off the ground!
