1st pic is Tami's (LadyHawk) Roxie
2nd pic is my Lexi
2rd Roxie
4th Lexi

Does her hair grow very slowly and have a little courser feel? Does it break off easily? Is her skin more of a gold color and her eye shine gold as well? You may have a redleg, it looks like it in the pics (love the family portrait by the way). Redlegs really come in handy but you can't make one your foundation bitch, at least that's what my breeder told me. I have a gal out of Roxie from the last litter and am holding on with (hopefully) show potential from this litter. If I keep it up all my brood bitches will be out of Roxie and she'll end up my foundation bitch by default. At least Teddi is out of Lamplighters.

Most True....Yes, Yes & Yes about the hair!
But in pictures her eyes shine either bright green or Blue.

I just love that nose!!!!!! He's a doll! Hugs, Lee

Actually Remi is a gal, she just went into heat. Hopefully Connor will behave for the show this weekend. He doesn't sleep well when one of the gals are in heat.

Tami -
good luck at the show! Connor is beautiful so I hope you do well! Can I ask how many weekends you wind up traveling to shows? I'm still trying to decide if showing would be for me...a hobby would be nice but not another full time job.... Thanks, Theresa

[Ladyhawk]

I try to show once or twice a month as I work every other weekend. It's not cheap but than neither would be playing golf. I do love it! I have a handling mentor that goes to most of the shows with me. She's great and the longer you do it the more people you will get to know. The more people you know the more fun it is. It's so fun talking Yorkie with other dog fanciers and showing off your dog. There will be 20 yorkies there on Sat. and 23 on Sun. It's nice to see all the dogs in their beautiful flowing coats. There are some big names that show around here like Caraneal and Thimbletip so you have people you can really learn from as well. You should go to a show and check it out. I'd recommend it to anyone!

On Roxie I use Durestede shampoo, coat handler conditioner, no finishing spray as it makes her feel gummy. I use Equyss for the rest except I just tried Pantene for Connor because I had a judge and a handler tell me to. It didn't do to bad, I still conditioned with Coat Handler though.
