Happy Birthday to the beautiful Halley and C**t litter.
We started with a carrot find party. Then they got chews. Tonight roast beef for dinner.

Yesterday my daughter, Jonna’s German Shepherd, Sky, saved her life. An aggressive dog next door had been trying to break into her yard for a while. She let the dogs out and heard the puppy, Piper, whining so she stepped outside and saw the neighbor dog in the yard. The dog saw her and began to run toward my daughter. Out of nowhere, Sky ran to the neighbor dog and they fought. Jonna ran next door to alert the neighbor. Animal Control was notified and Sky was taken to an emergency vet where she was examined. Sky is fine. I’m here in Anchorage and all of us were shaken. Dogs are amazing and Sky is a heroine in my eyes.

The Brittany in the blue circle is Merlin, the sire of our last litter. He’s on point in the Snake River area of Idaho. His dam, Cass, is honoring his point about 85 yards away. Honoring is when a dog sees another dog on point and stops to honor the point.
Both dogs owned and hunted by Katherine Thompson of River Bar Brittanys.

Prada won 2nd Money Female at the 2025 American Brittany Club Futurity held at the Sonoita Winery in Sonoita, Arizona. It was great to reconnect with friends and meet new people. So proud of this girl - she gave her all. Thank you Sahuaro Brittany Club for hosting. Thank you Helen Riggle for allowing us to bathe and groom our dogs at Helen’s Happy Hound Grooming salon.

Matia watching my sister eating and not sharing. Pretty pitiful.
