Happy New Year!!
Well, some one pushed the "fast forward" button on
Clinique's pregnancy and she delivered her litter a full
week early. Sad to report that we lost three of them.
It was just way to soon to come
out of the oven.
Ecstatic to claim that we managed to save two, both
girls, after nursing them around the clock for six days!
Big thanks to all of you who have supported us with
information and well wishes throughout this ordeal.
Life is so much better with great friends! |

Just over a year
old and Mill Mountain Masquerade (a Morgan daughter)
received her certificate for hunting ground hog last
weekend with Karen, Twila, Linda and Jose!
As you can see in
the picture, on the cooler, this was a huge one!
Congratulations to Karen McCarthy at Sow's Ear Farm
who owns this great working bitch.

August 2004
We all went to the Tri
State Classic I and II Open Terrier Trial and had a
blast racing the puppies. This was the first time Remi
and Ridley had to wear their face muzzles and it didn't
deter them one bit. Remi went Reserve Puppy Racing
Champion both days.
Not to let her brother out do her, Ridley won her 6-9
month over rough bitch conformation class and went
Reserve Best Open Bitch Puppy! I really don't
have to tell you how Sandi felt about that, this being
her first Jack Russell and all....
Both pups graduated into the Puppy Championship class
for G-T-G and they had so much fun competing

Hi Bid was the
second trial that Rowan, Ridley and
Remi went to and Rowan won her class and then went
on to get Reserve Best 4-6 month Puppy!
Sandi was happy
when Ridley placed second right behind her sister
in the same class.
Ridley and
Remi are also turning on to racing and
G-T-G,
winning ribbons in both divisions.
Morgan also had
a good day when he went Reserve Best Open Dog.
Then
on we all went to the Hunt Country Classic Open Trial
in Virginia. Rowan was second in the 4-6 month puppy
class out of 24 participants, Remi did very well in
racing and G-T-G. But, by far, the best thing to happen was
in the two days after the trial when Remi showed me
that he has his father's (Bear) hunting instinct and
drive. We were able to do some schooling with a couple of
ground hogs that we got while hunting with the two English
judges, and Remi did his job! It meant so much to me to
hear these working judges say that Remi had done so well,
and him only five and a half months old! On the down side
of that though, is the fact that he may never run into the
G-T-G hole fast again. He now knows there could be quarry
in there and only a fool would run in fast. Here's hoping
he can figure out that G-T-G at the trials is a big game!
In
her first class ever, JacKat's Rowan won her 3-6
month conformation puppy class at Breezewood and
then was Best 3-6 month puppy! JacKat's Ridley won
2nd place in the flats, and in the hurdles, out of a
huge 3-6 month puppy racing class!
JacKat's Mystique was
Reserve Over Puppy Racing Champion at the South
Carolina Terrier Trial! Mill
Mountain Masquerade was Puppy Champion in
conformation at Breezewood!
