I was also voted in as a board member to the Northwest Cardigan Fanciers, and trophy chairman for the upcoming year.<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/TNyZMbdfnQI/AAAAAAAAA9Q/_pImSyVNcwE/s1600/SN852051.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 400px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5538470080567811330" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/TNyZMbdfnQI/AAAAAAAAA9Q/_pImSyVNcwE/s400/SN852051.JPG" /></a><br /></div><br /><br /><div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></div><div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></div><div> </div><div>Above: Token was 5 1/2 months in the above picture at Richland.

On Sunday, Bella was BOB/BOW/WB for another 3 points, and Hunter was BOS. Bella now has 9 points total toward her Canadian championship in two weekends of showing. Not too shabby!

I think that makes 3 points total. I have to give thanks to Wiccan for keeping Bella with her at 'Corgi Camp' the last two weeks, she looks good. And, for taking puppy pics at our puppy evaluation of the Hunter x LE litter.<br />Wisteria and Jaina have left for their new homes. So, we are down to 5 with two more leaving this week. We will be holding onto Fate, Percy Jackson and Tarot until 12 weeks - then we will be evaluating again. We are very happy with Hunter's first litter.<br />Puppy pics soon to come!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6174715288264891457-2360404744376628378?l=dunecardigans.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Dune Cardiganshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11362377041321076701noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6174715288264891457.post-84960438927856925432010-06-02T21:19:00.000-07:002010-06-02T22:05:50.702-07:00<div align="center"> Some pictures from this evening.

I think Fate's brindling will be like this. Tarot and Wisteria have lots of stripes, and Spiral and Joker will look like Hunter with very few stripes. Their colors will change some, but I have never seen a brindle lose it's stripes! </div><div>I think I am pretty darn good at telling black from super dark brindle now at birth!

Anyone had a bad experience or a good experience with Wisker trimming? I ask because Bella has some tentacles coming out of her face! You can kinda see them in the picture.

Here are just some tidbits of what happened this week:<br /><br />*Tried to make dinner yesterday and it just all went horribly wrong. (Under cooked chicken and bad cheese) So wrong we threw it out. Gross.<br />*Bella ate some of the carpet in the living room. The living room in the house we are trying to sell. Awesome.<br />*Job situation is deteriorating. And that is all I will say about that! Blah.<br />*Burned hashbrowns at breakfast.(Not sure how I managed that). Gross.<br />*I had to get my H1N1 shot. Glad to have it, but not so glad to actually get a shot. Ouch.<br />*The dogs proceeded to kill all the stuffed animals that were won in Canada (a week ago) and pull all the guts out and left them all over the newly cleaned house. Super.<br />*The boxes I got to pack with are too square for a lot of the stuff I need to pack. Geez.<br />*Discovered that the sausage patties and the chicken breasts were freezer burned. Gross.<br />*We have no milk, butter, katchup, bread, paper, any fruit or veggies, lunch supplies, etc. Need to go to the store, but don't feel like spending the money. Lame.<br />*Went to go play with Hunter and I bent down as he came up under my jaw and cracked my teeth together. Hit so hard it made my eyes water. He has a big hard head. Ouch.<br />*A house we wanted doesnt have doors and corners wide enough for our large furniture. Blah.<br />*I hate doing the dog's nails. And they hate having their nails done. It's a mutual hatred that leaves me upset everytime I do it. And today was the day. Tear.<br />*Jesse is trying to sell the TVs - and has had several people interested. Today, someone came over and then left without the TV because they didnt understand what 'rear-projection' meant. Lame.<br />*One of the dogs drank water too fast and puked water/slime all over the floor. Gross.<br />*The laboratory just got an inspection. We did great and the lab bought the employees sub sandwiches. Which was a very nice idea. However, I am kinda sandwich picky and had to discard a bunch of the yucko veggies. And then I got to the soggy bread... I dont do soggy bread. Gross.<br />*I have started coughing again. Blah.<br />*My great-grandmother in Minnesota passed away this morning. WORST.<br /><br />Now, I know that a lot of these things are pretty trivial and dumb, but it just seemed to all add up. And Grandma passing was not a good way to end the day. I will really really miss her.<br />Hope everyone else's week was better. I need puppy breath. Anyone care to send some my way?<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6174715288264891457-7437115061419522175?l=dunecardigans.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Dune Cardiganshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11362377041321076701noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6174715288264891457.post-91348792641872867302009-11-01T23:15:00.000-08:002009-11-01T23:23:12.743-08:00Saturday -<br />Am Ch.

I am a little bit of a spaz, (like getting Hunter on my right side. I am already left and right challenged. This is torture.) but he is doing fine!</div><div align="left"> </div><div align="left">Then I have LE and Bella at Vancouver. So excited to see Riley again! Riley is Hunter's handsome half-brother.</div><div align="left"> </div><div align="left">And after that, I am scheduled for a heart procedure in Spokane, WA the day after the Vancouver show. I have the same condition that <a href="http://www.samhaincardigans.com/blog">Kim </a>has. I have AVNRT which is a condition that I have had forever. I have an electrical pathway that gets messed up sometimes and causes extreme tachycardia (fast heartbeats). My heartbeat goes well over 230 beats a minute (normal resting rate is about 70-80), which has caused me to pass out/black out. The heart gets into a rhythm and can't get itself out without chemical help. I am not fond of ER visits... So they are going to put a catheter into my femoral artery and put electrical nodes into my heart, stimulate the heart to get it into the wacked out rhythm, and find out where the messed up pathway is. Next, they will zap the electrical pathway with a laser. This is called radiofrequency ablation. Hopefully this solves the issues I have been having since I can remember. It's a fairly safe procedure as far as heart stuff goes. But, still, it's the biggest procedure I have ever had done. At first I was nervous to go through it, but now the constant fear of another ER visit (stress, cold meds, caffeine, or stimulants of any kind can trigger it) outweighs the doubts and anxiety.</div><div align="left"> </div><div align="left">And then our next outing will be CANADA! Yep, I am excited. I think we might even have 3 points in bitches Sat and Sun....</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6174715288264891457-5227136524620565108?l=dunecardigans.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Dune Cardiganshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11362377041321076701noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6174715288264891457.post-66143264601657523832009-10-08T14:10:00.000-07:002009-10-08T17:46:04.002-07:00Dayl has two male show prospects available!<br />The dark brindle boy is "Booger" and the red brindle boy is "Brutus"<br />Pictures taken at 8 weeks old. <a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/Ss5Wxc9iVkI/AAAAAAAAAhY/C6FJj9xtLes/s1600-h/booger+side+a+8+weeks.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 150px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5390341211596936770" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/Ss5Wxc9iVkI/AAAAAAAAAhY/C6FJj9xtLes/s200/booger+side+a+8+weeks.JPG" /></a><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/Ss5WyRpRQ-I/AAAAAAAAAho/XGQjNXqHf20/s1600-h/Brutus+side+8+weeks.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 132px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5390341225739011042" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/Ss5WyRpRQ-I/AAAAAAAAAho/XGQjNXqHf20/s200/Brutus+side+8+weeks.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/Ss5Wx1kegRI/AAAAAAAAAhg/Z0b6jy5xZxs/s1600-h/Booger+front+8+weeks.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 178px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 200px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5390341218202714386" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/Ss5Wx1kegRI/AAAAAAAAAhg/Z0b6jy5xZxs/s200/Booger+front+8+weeks.JPG" /></a><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/Ss5Wy2xhFBI/AAAAAAAAAhw/gc4Mmo3BwF0/s1600-h/Brutus+front+8+weeks.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 182px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 200px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5390341235705713682" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/Ss5Wy2xhFBI/AAAAAAAAAhw/gc4Mmo3BwF0/s200/Brutus+front+8+weeks.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div align="center"></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center">Dam is Int/Am Ch.

They can be seen at <a href="http://www.wagginthedog.blogspot.com/">http://www.wagginthedog.blogspot.com/</a> . I love showing new dogs. It's challenging and fun. Especially puppies. I was also very happy with LE's performance, even tho she didnt get the big wins. I am just glad she put in a good showing - no 'energizer-bouncing-bunny' routine. It makes a big difference when they are steady and focused.<br /><br />Another AWESOME part of my weekend was the B-Match...<br />Aurigan Dunes Celestine Blue aka Bella at 4 1/2 months went BOB, and Group 1 under Lorrie Bellah. Its always fun to win prizes, get the puppies some experience, AND get recognition for having a nice puppy. I hope she continues to blossom into all her potential. Her brother Maksim looks to be growing up nicely too. ;)<br /><br />Hunter is doing well in his agility class.

Wow, my hands are pruney from the juices!<img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5372914194994630594" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/SpBs_lFPD8I/AAAAAAAAAc4/67qJ8MyQJnk/s320/Garden.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5372914214084698914" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/SpBtAsMqYyI/AAAAAAAAAdI/DQ9yyjlTsEA/s320/LE+Garden.jpg" border="0" /></div><div align="center">The dogs had fun scouting out the garden.

I really like the fact that they are smaller shows, and they do the <em>group judging as soon as the group is finished</em>, rather than waiting until most of the breeds are done and doing one group at a time. And, usually, the same judge does the whole group. Therefore, the group judging goes quicker because the judge has seen all of the dogs. I know why that isn't feasible in the US (too many dogs, pro handler schedules, etc), but that is why I like showing in Canada.</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6174715288264891457-7899021526491232695?l=dunecardigans.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Dune Cardiganshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11362377041321076701noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6174715288264891457.post-67114248177433993182009-08-17T17:20:00.000-07:002009-08-17T17:30:19.234-07:00<div align="center">All the kids were playing up stairs today while I cleaned and took pics.

Dayl said she looked like a bowl of jello running around the ring. She has A LOT of skin to grow into. I was very happy with her performance - even tho she cant hold still to save her life... ;)<br /><br />Saturday Results<br />LE (Kennebec Dunes Limited Edition) went 2nd in Open<br />Phantom (Aurigan MP Primary Attraction) went 1st in 12-18mo bitch and RWB<br />Brecca (Rememberance Brecca) went 4th in Open<br />Savannah (Wofrun White Lightning) was WB/BOS for a 3pt major which finished her.<br />Dash (Coedwig's Cracker Jack) was 1st/WD/BOW for a 3pt major also.<br />Lincoln (Ch. Pawcific Signed Sealed Delivered) was BOB<br /><br />Sunday Results under Judge R. Frost<br />Phantom went 1st in 12-18 mo and RWB<br />Brecca went 3rd in Open<br />LE was on some concoction of speed and/or caffeine and therefore was not given a ribbon. She was such a spaz! A happy, effervescent, over-the-top, adrenaline-took-over-her-body-and-mind spaz... (Just kidding about the speed or caffeine... that was a joke!)<br />Mirage was 1st/WB/BOW for a 3 pt major which finished her too!<br />Ruby was BOB<br />Lincoln was BOS<br /><br />Hunter went for the CERF clinic and is all normal there. Another health clearance down! He did get to participate during grooming time too, since he seemed left out and bored...<br /><br />Onto Wenatchee in a month. Good luck to all at Redmond next weekend.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6174715288264891457-5646938418140316612?l=dunecardigans.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Dune Cardiganshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11362377041321076701noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6174715288264891457.post-12367795023105018652009-07-28T19:24:00.000-07:002009-07-28T19:37:02.830-07:00<div align="center">Lazy Sunday Napping<img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363704410329551410" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/Sm-0vjnjkjI/AAAAAAAAAbw/KyiZBQmTvQM/s320/Bella+and+Jesse+nap+time.jpg" />This little girl sleeps as hard as she plays<br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/Sm-0vdZCx6I/AAAAAAAAAbo/YSh9xbZf1fY/s1600-h/Bella+napping.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 200px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363704408658069410" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/Sm-0vdZCx6I/AAAAAAAAAbo/YSh9xbZf1fY/s320/Bella+napping.jpg" /></a> Oh sweet cold tile, how we love thee!<br />LE in her red brindle camo outfit...

I only have LE showing right now (and maybe Hunter) but I thought that I might post my potential show schedule in case the NW wants to try to build any majors at upcoming shows (like we just tried to do for Enumclaw - not sure if we were successful or not).<br /><br />Aug 15,16 - Enumclaw, WA: Judges Cathy H. Daugherty and Robert Stein<br />Sept 12,13 - Wenatchee, WA: Judges Dr. Ruby Hertz and Dr. Sam Burke Jr.<br />Sept 19,20 - Shelton, WA: Judges Linda Riedel, Terry B. Carter<br />Sept 26 - Richland, WA: Judge ?<br />Oct 10,11 - Cloverdale, BC: Judges Limoges, Haverstock, Paterson, Mincey<br />Oct 24,25 - Ridgefield, WA: Judges ?<br />Oct 29,30,31,Nov 1 - Abbotsford, BC: Judges? Herding group specialty<br />Nov 7,8 - Salem, OR: Judges ?<br /><br />I would love to do St Helens this year, but as of right now I have another thing going on. We will most likely have majors at Richland. Dayl and I are taking 3 or 4 to Wenatchee. And yes, I know the BC shows dont count for AKC, but I LOVE showing in Canada. ;)<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6174715288264891457-2300921529242107364?l=dunecardigans.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Dune Cardiganshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11362377041321076701noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6174715288264891457.post-59005260772923999142009-07-19T09:57:00.000-07:002009-07-19T10:00:56.531-07:00<div align="center">We got in at 2am, but all of us are finally home! <img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 178px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5360216650098400162" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/SmNQpMQ_26I/AAAAAAAAAa4/cRZZB75FSOE/s320/Bella+13+wks+face.jpg" />Bella is already bug hunting - Good dog!<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/SmNQpZbSl-I/AAAAAAAAAbA/soUUJbEb6uw/s1600-h/Bella+Bug+Hunting.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5360216653631231970" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/SmNQpZbSl-I/AAAAAAAAAbA/soUUJbEb6uw/s320/Bella+Bug+Hunting.jpg" /></a> </div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6174715288264891457-5900526077292399914?l=dunecardigans.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Dune Cardiganshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11362377041321076701noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6174715288264891457.post-79678970055456751132009-07-14T18:13:00.000-07:002009-07-14T18:59:27.140-07:00A realization hit me like a ton of bricks this morning.<br />My mother has been gone for 10 years today.<br /><br />I just felt like writing about her today, though I am not exactly sure where to start or what to say...<br /><br />Some people may wonder how Dayl Phillip and I got connected. Well, my mother, Yvette, and Dayl were best friends in high school. They bonded over horses and therefore, I have known Dayl basically my whole life. I have very fond memories of my mom, Dayl and I all sitting in Dayl's computer room looking up Haflinger horse pedigrees, or riding through Dayl's cherry orchards on the horses, or driving the three hours just to see the new foals.<br /><br />My dad loathed our trips to Dayls. Because we would end up bringing an animal home with us! My mom and I (and my brother for that matter) seemed to get into a lot of 'trouble' with Dayl... The last animal my mom brought home was a Cardigan puppy. Just a week or so before the car accident that took her life. Dayl had her first litter of Cardigans and I had previously said that I wanted to get out of showing horses and into showing dogs. I was so excited when my mom brought Auri home.<br /><br />Auri ended up being my life preserver. My heart dog. I could go on and on about how special that girl is to me.<br /><br />Dayl and I wonder out loud sometimes how many dogs my mom would have had... wonder if she would have gotten into dog showing/breeding or if she would have stuck to the horses... wonder what her 'kennel' name would have been... if she would have liked this puppy or that puppy... what stud dog she would have used with whichever bitch...<br /><br />But, we know that she would have had fun. The dogs are such a large part of my life. I would have loved to share my passion for this breed with her. She loved animals. And she had a way with animals. I will always say that she was one of the most patient, kind, and generous people I have ever known.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6174715288264891457-7967897005545675113?l=dunecardigans.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Dune Cardiganshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11362377041321076701noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6174715288264891457.post-65789188592262562652009-07-09T14:23:00.001-07:002009-07-23T09:19:52.139-07:00<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/SlZiQGNjU7I/AAAAAAAAAaY/QGCf9yRY29I/s1600-h/Lahaina+Mt+View.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5356576835488666546" style="FLOAT: left;

I was pleasantly surprised that the judges looked past his lack of coat. LE now has 10 points and is searching for a major, or whatever we can find in the meantime.<br /><br />Also, Dayl showed me a website that has Hunter and Beatrys listed as ranked in Canada for 09. Hunter is ranked 4th and Beatrys is ranked 3rd!!!

We got a nasty note in the mail from neighbors saying he was barking non-stop. However, the times/days they said it was him he wasnt outside (we have a neighbor dog who sounds a lot like him) but since he was getting targeted as the culprit I just had it done. He does do his fair share of barking, and he is loud. I dont like leaving bark collars on all day when I am not home. Scares me to death. I really dont need a fine from the city. So far it sounds like the de-bark worked.<br />Jesse has been practicing with a new band for the last month, staying out really late and often, but they had their first gig this past Friday - which was AWESOME. I was so proud of him. He plays rhythm guitar in a band called Sugarbush. <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5350355286099770322" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 189px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/SkBHyQocO9I/AAAAAAAAAXI/de2ItSRg4D8/s320/JesseSugarbushX.jpg" border="0" /> <p align="center"><em>Jesse playing rhythm guitar</p><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5350345234091720578" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/SkA-pJ-9v4I/AAAAAAAAAWQ/fW4dMS9DLEQ/s320/Sugarbush061909.jpg" border="0" /></em> <div align="center"><em>Sugarbush</em> </div><p>I had an appointment for consultation for my heart issues.

Dayl has updated the website <a href="http://www.aurigan.com/">www.aurigan.com</a> . And, Terry of Tailbrite Cardigans just had a litter of 6 puppies. 2 girls and 4 boys, all brindle out of Kolby and Halle. Her website is <a href="http://www.tailbrite.com/">www.tailbrite.com</a> .

We were 30s and 40s last week, and now 70s? Dont get me wrong, I am loving it! - but what happened to spring? I guess we are just moving right on thru.<br /><br />In other news, my dogs are starting to shed, Ellyn is having her first heat cycle and the biggest show of the year starts next week... what luck and awesome timing we have (<em>massive sarcasm</em>). I feel a little guilty sending them with Susan this weekend. Ellyn is going to have Hunter in groaning/moaning/whimpering/whining fits the whole drive. I can just picture it.<br />But, I am confident that she and Don can handle it. ;)<br /><br />Topeka here we come! (All hairless and hormonal; that is, the dogs- not me!) Be there Monday!<br />If I have access to a computer, I will try to post results. Hopefully the club will get them up too.<br /><br /><strong>And a Happy Happy Belated 1oth Birthday to Miss Auri!</strong> Gosh, has it been ten years???<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6174715288264891457-3220744037858139953?l=dunecardigans.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Dune Cardiganshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11362377041321076701noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6174715288264891457.post-449483839888177982009-03-22T15:58:00.001-07:002009-03-22T16:40:06.870-07:00<div align="center"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316151945478797298" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 306px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/ScbEBzpD9_I/AAAAAAAAAR4/lBVmUB-0wrg/s400/Hunter+Herding+Waiting+032009.jpg" border="0" />Hunter 'patiently' waiting his turn - yeah right... what is patience?</div><div align="center"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316151928037355458" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 206px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/ScbEAyqsr8I/AAAAAAAAARg/lfQwUJ5dWgA/s400/Ellyn+and+Hunter+Herding2+032009.jpg" border="0" /> Hunter gives Ellyn some advice, "Come on, this is how you do it!"</div><div align="center"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316151942060708098" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 327px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/ScbEBm6IEQI/AAAAAAAAARw/9qPUjaYtNXM/s400/Ellyn+Herding2+032009.jpg" border="0" /></div><div align="center">Ellyn figures it out... quickly!<img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316151938066610386" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 278px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/ScbEBYB2-NI/AAAAAAAAARo/N50ZbVNKLeM/s400/Ellyn+Herding1+032109.jpg" border="0" />Piece of cake mom!<br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316151953877219346" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 159px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/ScbECS7ZuBI/AAAAAAAAASA/cQmv22EEGCw/s400/Hunter+Herding2+032009.jpg" border="0" /> Hunter controls the 'smaller lighter' sheep with ease!<br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/ScbElglD4WI/AAAAAAAAASQ/s7d750rMNgg/s1600-h/Hunter2ndleg+Herding1+032009.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316152558837031266" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 206px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/ScbElglD4WI/AAAAAAAAASQ/s7d750rMNgg/s400/Hunter2ndleg+Herding1+032009.jpg" border="0" /></a> Hunter looks like a cutting horse with those quick turns!<br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316152555995188386" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 226px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/ScbElV_gzKI/AAAAAAAAASI/nx16tsdKC-c/s400/Hunter2ndleg+Herding2+032009.jpg" border="0" /> <div>Hunter got the 'heaviest and hardest to move' sheep the second time around since he did so well with helping Ellyn.

I will get pictures up as soon as I have some...<br /><br />Each dog had 3 sheep to herd in a small corral area. We took the dogs in one at a time, but Dotty and Ellyn needed a little bit of help realizing that yes, their job that day was to chase sheep. So, when Dayl took Dotty in, she also brought in Beatrys who immediately went after the sheep. Once it all clicked in Dotty's head she was on. Same for Ellyn. Ellyn had so much fun the second time around, she didnt want to leave the pen!<br /><br />Hunter was amazing! He took off after the sheep without me encouraging him, and he stopped when told and did perfect recalls both times. He stayed very focused and didnt wander off to pee on the fence, or eat the sheep poo, or get distracted by the other dogs and people outside the fence (like a lot of the other dogs did).<br /><br />The dogs got muddy and stinky and had a great time. I have GOT to find someone close to me that herds... I would probably go <u>all the time</u>!<br /><br />New titles!<br />Am/Can Ch. Aurigan Dunes National Treasure, HIC HCT<br />Am/Int Ch.

Dayl and I are taking Hunter, Ellyn, Dotty and Beatrys to a herding trial Saturday morning. For those interested here is the website: <a href="http://www.twincountyschutzhundclub.com/Upcoming_Events.html">http://www.twincountyschutzhundclub.com/Upcoming_Events.html</a><br />Hopefully, we will be successful at obtaining the HIC - Herding Instinct Capability and then the HCT - Herding Capability Tested titles. I think both Hunter and Ellyn will pay attention to the livestock, but if they can work the livestock will be a different story. And I really hope no one eats a sheep, or gets themselves hurt. That would ruin the weekend...<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6174715288264891457-2562907586831274764?l=dunecardigans.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Dune Cardiganshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11362377041321076701noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6174715288264891457.post-21083543446414654582009-03-11T16:50:00.001-07:002009-03-11T16:53:36.772-07:00<div align="center"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/SbhOmTHNt8I/AAAAAAAAARY/ZEthKu5xjOk/s1600-h/Hunter+CAN+Ch+flip.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5312082180356028354" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 359px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/SbhOmTHNt8I/AAAAAAAAARY/ZEthKu5xjOk/s400/Hunter+CAN+Ch+flip.jpg" border="0" /></a> Am/Can Ch.

They dont award places 2-4 like the states do. So Ellyn got to go into Best Puppy in Show competition both days too. What a tired little girl she is!<br /><br />Hunter got a Group 3!!! I think I about passed out when he got pulled. That is my first group placing in the regular group. That brings him quickly to 5 points toward his CAN Ch. title.

I believe this is due to the snow, the rain, and overall grayness of my world these past few months. Dayl, Pam, Terry and I all enjoy sharing books and new authors with each other. Here are some authors I find simply delightful.<br /><br />Diana Gabaldon - <a href="http://voyagesoftheartemis.blogspot.com/">http://voyagesoftheartemis.blogspot.com/</a><br /> The <em>Outlander </em>Series, The <em>Lord John s</em>eries<br />Jasper Ffjorde - <a href="http://www.jasperfforde.com/">http://www.jasperfforde.com/</a><br /><em> </em>The Thursday Next novels<br />Charlaine Harris - <a href="http://www.charlaineharris.com/">http://www.charlaineharris.com/</a><br /> The Sookie Stackhouse novels<br />Sara Donati - <a href="http://rosinalippi.com/weblog/">http://rosinalippi.com/weblog/</a><br /> The <em>Into The Wilderness s</em>eries<br />Jennifer Roberson <a href="http://www.cheysuli.com/author/Index.html">http://www.cheysuli.com/author/Index.html</a><br /> The Historicals<br /><br />And my most favorite author as a child/teen who helped inspire the kennel name 'Dune'.<br />Frank Herbert - <a href="http://frankherbert.org/">http://frankherbert.org/</a><br /><br />As far as dogs go, Hunter, Ellyn, Phantom and Beatrys will be going to the Canada shows the next two weekends.

Congrats to owner Sherilyn Curti of Tarea on Lola's 5 point major at the supported entry in California. Lola is from the Reign x Rush breeding, co-bred by Dayl and I. Reign is Aurigan When Diamonds Reign, and Rush is Ch. Tarea Llynhill Audacious. I am hoping to get a picture of Lola soon ;)<br /><br />Another puppy from this litter - Gristle aka Ch. Dunes Bluereigndrop Skihill Boy - made short work of his championship for his owner Julia Dancy in Colorado. He also got a few group placings along the way. (I had to get on my other computer to get this picture of Gristle and Julia getting a Group 2 in Oct of 2006) <a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/SX4DZaALhaI/AAAAAAAAAPw/nkhOY0kV6aU/s1600-h/Los+Lunas++N.M.+10.15.06+Group+2nd_0001.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5295673946845971874" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 255px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/SX4DZaALhaI/AAAAAAAAAPw/nkhOY0kV6aU/s320/Los+Lunas++N.M.+10.15.06+Group+2nd_0001.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Here is a picture of Aurigan When Diamonds Reign from when I was showing her.

I didn't know whether I was going to cry, puke, pass out or pee my pants!<br />I thank Dayl Phillip and Pam Bennett for letting Hunter come and live with Jesse and I. Hunter is the first Cardigan I have finished on my own. A feeling that I have been patiently waiting to feel since I got Auri (Hunter's great-grandma) in 1999.<br />Hunter began his career in Puyallup in June '08 and finished in Puyallup in Jan of '09. Not the quickest or flashiest win record, but he was fairly consistent at getting reserve or better (and the Best of Breed wins were amazing!)<br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/SWkpIXYk--I/AAAAAAAAAOY/ZKAn0i4f8Ps/s1600-h/SN851642.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5289804461016153058" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wiEpVmya7LU/SWkpIXYk--I/AAAAAAAAAOY/ZKAn0i4f8Ps/s320/SN851642.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />I couldn't help but take this picture of Mt.

We heard that there would be a pilot car taking people back and forth. We stopped at a <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">restaurant</span> and went in for some food about 9pm. There were signs up for people to take shelter at a nearby school but we thought we would just wait awhile. From where we were parked, we watched many people turn around and get back on the highway to go back south, there were people talking to the cop that guarded the north bound entrance to the highway who was telling people to either stick it out or turn around, and there were many trucks just sitting there waiting.<br /><br />Between the soup/salad and our main meals a couple came up to us and asked us if we were stranded and needed to get north - low and behold they were the ones with the pilot car (which was unmarked) helping people get around I-5! Apparently, they had been helping people get around since 7pm, even though the news and all radio reports had the way blocked with no detour in place.<br /><br />Jesse and I got our dinners to go and followed the pilot car east of the highway to high and dry land. We didn't actually see any bad water issues until we got back into <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">Centralia</span>. What a mess! Jesse and I are both from Dayton, WA which had a major 100 year flood in the mid 90s. We hadn't seen bad flooding, with our own eyes, like they have over here since then. Hotels with water more than half way up the doors, a semi truck that had water up to its doors, homes abandoned for 5 feet of water, washed out roads, and businesses and <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">restaurants</span> obviously not open for business any time soon.<br /><br />We wrote down the detour directions <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">in case</span> we need to use them on the way back!<br /><br />So, all in all I am glad we made the trek! Carol Edmund's dog Ace was <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">WD</span>/<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">BOS</span> today and Mirage with Mike was <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">BW</span>/BOW and Emily Fish's Secret was BOB.

Major flooding and avalanches have basically shut down any travel from the west to east side - even going thru Oregon looks bleak as I-5 is closed at Centralia to Olympia. I am really bummed... but maybe the pass will be open tomorrow and I can at least make Saturday and/or Sunday showing.<br />I have a lovely cold and took a trip to the ER yesterday for heart issues, so maybe mother nature is looking out for me and telling me to stay home and get some rest!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6174715288264891457-5507609470842697486?l=dunecardigans.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Dune Cardiganshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11362377041321076701noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6174715288264891457.post-44450017139986181132008-12-12T19:26:00.000-08:002008-12-12T19:56:32.586-08:00<p><object width="320" height="266" class="BLOG_video_class" id="BLOG_video-e2756b3eb8190a14" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/get_player"><param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"><param name="flashvars" value="flvurl=http://v15.nonxt6.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?id%3De2756b3eb8190a14%26itag%3D5%26app%3Dblogger%26ip%3D0.0.0.0%26ipbits%3D0%26expire%3D1329943794%26sparams%3Did,itag,ip,ipbits,expire%26signature%3D63B6A16EBDF20407EA20DD8DE69C8713BB0CA5EE.20AE0B07C4FC4F86205E75DE88FE3DFF2E61CE9C%26key%3Dck1&amp;iurl=http://video.google.com/ThumbnailServer2?app%3Dblogger%26contentid%3De2756b3eb8190a14%26offsetms%3D5000%26itag%3Dw160%26sigh%3DEAo-LQ0jG0B8NjJGRg9L-gtYKbo&amp;autoplay=0&amp;ps=blogger"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/get_player" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"width="320" height="266" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"flashvars="flvurl=http://v15.nonxt6.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?id%3De2756b3eb8190a14%26itag%3D5%26app%3Dblogger%26ip%3D0.0.0.0%26ipbits%3D0%26expire%3D1329943794%26sparams%3Did,itag,ip,ipbits,expire%26signature%3D63B6A16EBDF20407EA20DD8DE69C8713BB0CA5EE.20AE0B07C4FC4F86205E75DE88FE3DFF2E61CE9C%26key%3Dck1&iurl=http://video.google.com/ThumbnailServer2?app%3Dblogger%26contentid%3De2756b3eb8190a14%26offsetms%3D5000%26itag%3Dw160%26sigh%3DEAo-LQ0jG0B8NjJGRg9L-gtYKbo&autoplay=0&ps=blogger"allowFullScreen="true" /></object></p><p>I dont have any exciting news from the Vancouver, WA show, but I felt like I needed to get a video of Ellyn on here.

Hunter took Best Opposite, Best of Winners, and Winner's Dog for a 3 point major! He only needs a point to finish. I would celebrate, but I am wiped out. Pam took Phantom, a Dotty x Harley daughter for Dayl. It was Phantom's first time in the ring, and you can see her in the video above. Today's judge was Mr. Henry Gregory. We are hanging out at Pam's house this weekend. She has Hunter's grandpa Harley (Int/Am Ch. Aurigan Thunder Rolls, CGC RN CD) and let me tell you, Hunter could be Harley's shadow!
