Give Thanks and Don't Wait
Give Thanks for all your blessings. They are everywhere. Just take time to look closely and you will see them.
Don't Wait to tell the people in your life how much they mean to you.
The conversations you hear in the puppy videos are Marie's voice and mine. I've gotten used to spending my Monday afternoons with Marie and Cary and the puppies. Marie's heart was always in the right place. A puppy was always in her lap or clamboring to get there. I'm still in disbelief that Marie is gone. God must have needed somebody in Heaven to take care of puppies who wait at the Rainbow Bridge.
Don't Wait to tell the people in your life how much they mean to you.
You may not have another chance.
The lady who is holding the handsome male puppy in the latest picture is Marie Wiggins. She and her husband, Cary, own Sheeba, the mother of the litter. On Tuesday evening I got a distressed call from Cary. With a weary raspy voice he told me Marie passed away suddenly during the early morning hours of November 22nd. Cary found Marie on the floor but it was too late.

| Zeus at 4 months old with Nick Rayburn |
It has been a good weekend for this breeder/owner/handler. I showed Dillon's Zipper Ripper (a.k.a. Zeus) Friday and Saturday and took Reserve Winners with him. Today a very special thing happened for us. Dillon's Zipper Ripper (a.k.a. Zeus) won his first point at Decatur Alabama KC, Priceville, AL. Not only did he go Winner's Dog from Bred By Exhibitor class, he took Best Of Breed and Best Of Winners under Robert Vandiver. Zeus is 11 months old out of CH Blackjack's Red Sword of Camelot and Dillon's Midnight Liberty. Thank you Mr. Vandiver for the compliments on Zeus.

Growing every day, pups are so much fun to watch! Well, as a breeder, I think it's the best entertainment ever. The dark blue and pink ribbon pups are the females. Thanks for watching.

New video! Cobby X Sheeba Pups
The brood is 12 days old now. As you can see when you watch this video, they are all doing well and Sheeba is an excellent mother. We haven't put their colored collars on yet. The litter is uniform in size and color. The 2 gals are just a bit smaller, as usual but they get right in there with their 7 big brothers!
Enjoy our little home movie.
