Professional photography really makes us look good.  Pictured here is Linda and grandaughter Amie with Cooper and Bella....Thanks to Kaufholtz Photography.

Close up of Cooper with Grandaughter Amie holding his award.  His attention on me.  Yeah Cooper!!! 

Cooper's first try at agility.  This is at Lazy K stable in Purdy, Washington under the instructor Tina Stafford. Tina has a way with people and animals alike.  Giving just the right kind of encouragment to each individual.  Each student or dog is moved at their own pace.  Many seniors enjoy this sport with their dogs.  I certainly do, and I am now 69 years old.  Hope to get back into the routine.   

Agility Training in our Port Orchard and Gig Harbor area.

Bella our Sable Merle who had the first litter we sold.  She is in full coat now, very lovely. Bella has her own personality and often refered to as the princess of the farm.  She talks to me murmuring words with her mouth and making sure I understand her.   

Here is one of the owners in agility look at the flat speed on this dog.   good luck Heather..

My first love, "Pal" 1979 thru 1995, shown here at 16 years old.  My old faithful sire.  Love of my life.  Now buried on our farm here at home.  Meet me at the end of the rainbow Palsey... love mom

Holly is hiding in the woods, can you see her?  She can see us!!

Here comes Bella out of the woods, don't worry I am right there with them.  We worry about coyotes here, but I am always right with the dogs when we go exploring.

cooper loves the fish tank.  Sometimes he tries to bit the fish...

This is Xena the warrior princess.  It hurts me to say she had to be put down.  She served as farm dog for Tom and I for 14 years.  Cancer got her.  She was so brave always the first one to get to the raccoon or possum at the farm and move in for the kill.  See her on success page killing a coyote, of corse she had a little help... 

.I had a vision afterwards she was running to Tom in Heaven, very real!!

DB Cooper, what an attention getter!!!  He is so smart.  His intense look always gets to us.  We love Cooper...

December 2005.. Hope you are not tired of hearing about Cooper we are so proud of him.  This picture was taken of him in our barn. 

Cooper manuevers the "WAlk it" at agility.  He is getting faster.  Likes small pieces of chicken breast for treats.   

They also like to see their reflection!!!
