Children of Norway Rift with the Mother Country

I just had to read this article and it reminded me of home....sooooooo Minnesotan!

Minneapolis Journal: For Children of Norway, a Rift With the Mother Country
By MONICA DAVEY
Norway’s decision to shut its career consulate in Minneapolis has upset residents of the Upper Midwest, which is home to more Norwegian-Americans than any other region of the country.

Zoey Report

Just a note to let you know Zoey is the light of my life. 

We were at the World Horse Show, she would see someone in a golf cart, climb in for a ride.  No one denied her. 

At the Select World Horse show no one asked me about breeding to my stud.  They all wanted to know where Zoey came from.
 
Boomer told me Harley is the best present he ever had.***
 
April

Here is a link to April's ranch and the best horses in North America: Prairie Star Performance Horses


***Boomer is April's son.  April talked me into selling her a littermate to her Zoey for her son in college---living in a dorm, far away from home! I can hardly believe I went for that myself, but there are always exceptions, and Boomer was one of them.  April assured me the puppy would have a home with her if things didn't  work out with Boomer and his new pup Harley.  When April told me how Boomer walked out on a training class with Harley becasue he disagreed with the punitive methods of the class, I knew it had been a good decision.

Baby Dog Bogey

Baby-dog Bogey is doing great!  Bogey is just old enough to compete CPE agility.  He is an adolescent in-tact male, but he does have a very experienced agility owner.  This past weekend Kim, his owner/co-breeder, and Bogey had the following results at the Dexter MI CPE trial:


Fullhouse    1st Place

Colors         2nd Place

Jackpot       2nd Place
Wildcard      2nd Place
Jumpers      2nd Place

NEW TITLE!

Chevy and Margot cleaned up!  Margot saw the announcement for a new organization offering titles in obedience with similar but slightly different rules from AKC.  The trial was nearby at Northfield Dog Training, so she registerd Chevy and started practicing.  A whole two weeks later they have a new title CD-H, St. Hubert's Companion Dog title.  Congratulations!!! 

Chevy was first place and High-in-Trial Novice-A dog all three legs of her title!

10 days

New stuff to report, eyes are opening.  They can't see much yet, but I am sure they are seeing light and shadows. Ears are just starting to open up the samllest bit.  We did our first nail trimming, this did not phase the pups but Faye was not ahppy and responded by licking their bottoms to try to get them to pee on me so I would put them down. The pups have spent the day upstairs.  Here are pictures from today:
