I started again in 2001 with a Parson Russell Terriers. My mother had started breeding Yorkies so it was the natural choice for me. Funny, but I didn't look at Mom's pedigrees before I bought a dog. She had bought her bitch from show breeder and then breed her back to a beautiful champion.
I had nice dogs right under my nose!
Both of my children show now. My daughter is a much better handler than I am. She get a lot joy from beating me! My son will only show Daisy and only show if he is sure he will win.
When you children are older, buy a show pup from Glenda. It is a wonderful hobby. |
I will and thank you! Sounds like you had a wonderful Mother and an amazing childhood!
