I understand, we all have to do what we are most comfortable with. Like me, I don't like posting belly pics of pregnant mommas. I think it is silly and would bring me bad luck. I don't think bad of anyone that posts belly pics but that is just not for me. We all have our little quirks.

Especially when I see my girl in labor and know that I made that decision to put her there. I guess that's why I only do it minimally may once or twice and at times skipping a year. You're lucky if you get 1 in every 3 to 6 litters......Yeah! there are times you have one that just maybe.....but, just doesn't have it all.

Grooming is something that takes awhile to get.....each dog is different, requiring a whole different set of products and ways of doing things, it's almost like you're sculpting. I love being in the ring, although that took awhile so that everything was 2nd nature. Again, each dog is different, learning how to instinctively make a correction and knowing when the dog is going to need it....and the trick of not anyone know it.

My pups are doing great......yep! running around and creating mischief. This is the part the requires a lot of work and watching which one is going to be the one. My Tahlulah & Charmer Bunch all have the attitude....now its a watch and see which one has it all. My Rosie & Denny Bunch, I'm watching a lil girl.....she appears to have it all but, her size is just not quiet there.

Vegas is being discussed, however, not completely being decided upon.......It would be nice to have it out here in the west, only about 4 or 5 hours drive for me.

There isn't a Yorkie Club there, it's the YTCA Roving National...it would be held in conjuction with the All Breed Show.

It's in the preliminary stages of being discussed with YTCA. The problem is, that it's being discussed holding it under a tent.....something exhibitors want nothing to do with.....Since the month is October....we all know it can still be hot in Vegas and then the possibility of winds.......not something an exhibitor wants to put their yorkie through...heat and the winds blowing and sounding like a frieght train.
