Trent is a beautiful boy who has a delightful temperament.  I got to watch him in the show ring and I fell in love with him.  He has beautiful movement and I hope to get some of his "breed type".  He finished his championship very easily at just 12 months old and finished with 5 majors.  He has 3 Best In Specialty wins to his credit as well - one of them at out of the 12-18 month class!  What a show record he has!!

Rio finished her championship easily before she was 2 years old.  Her sire is a dual champion - both field trail and conformation champion.  Rio has been in the field for early training and is going to return for field work after having puppies.  She has a beautiful head with a lovely dark eye and nice expression.  She has wonderful front and rear angle and is very balanced which truly shows in her movement. 

We are very excited about this combination.  Stay tuned....

1/11/12 - Rio is in season!!!  We will be shipping her to Michigan to visit Trent very soon....

1/18/12 - Rio flies to Michigan today.  She is still early in her season but we wanted to get her to Michigan with some time to settle in.  Thanks to Judy (Trent's owner) for picking up Rio at the airport pretty darn late at night!!.

11/25/12 - Rio's progesterone is finally starting to rise - it was 4.4 today.  Expect to breed her (transcervical implant) on Friday and next Monday.

1/27/12 - First breeding done today!!  All looked good at the vet's office (we did a transcervical implant).  Will do another breeding on Monday.

1/30/12 - Second breeding done today and all went very well.  Rio's  progesterone was 33 so our timing was perfect.  The repro vet in Michigan didn't want us to fly her home - he said he has seen too many girls not "take" because of the stress of flying.  So...after a lot of talking about it we decided that Rio is going to stay in Michigan until we ultrasound her and see that she is pregnant.  Never done this before but I sure don't want to take any chances!!  I will ship her home after the ultrasound.

2/6/12 - Rio is doing great with Judy in Michigan.  But...amazing how much I miss her here!  We will ultrasound her in another 2 1/2 weeks.
