Artemisia Aussies

03/11/2026

Just got back home after an ASCA show in Utah and taking hubby to a couple of Dr. appointments.
It was the “D” girls turn to show and they did not disappoint .
Dee Dee, Artemisia I’m Late For The Party finished her championship. She went WB,BOW, and BOS over specials under senior breeder judge Susan Rossy. She is my tenth bred by Ch. with four more of my bred by’s having majors already. Kimber, Artemisia It’s A Sure Shot At Skyline, Dee Dee’s sister went WB picking up a major also.

Then Daphne, Artemisia Cattail Ridge Diamond Of The Season went BOS twice, under senior breeder judge Cheri Preciado and AKC judge Mike Van Tassell. Thanks so much for finding my girls! And thanks again to my great handler Brittney Johnson.

Also back east Daphne’s full sister June just finished her AKC Ch. and picked up some major ASCA wins also. These girls are bred by Ashley Wersinger and me.

Artemisia Spring Fevers Pandemic Princess also finished her AKC GCH, so a great start to the year for all five girls.

Next stop USASA!

Just an update on Artemisia Aussies lastest show results. We spent almost two weeks up in Utah. Hyatt, Marquee / Confetti got his first major at the Beehive cluster. We had Amber Jade take some lovely pictures of my boy Hyatt while there, thank you Amber. Dee Dee Marquee / Bumblebee, came home with three RWB to a major.
Then on too Logan where Hyatt got two more WD to finish his CH. Hyatt then the following day went select for 4 points towards his grand. Love this boy! He turns two in August.
The girls continued being bridesmaids picking up several more RWB.

Since I haven’t posted in forever again, here are a few win pictures from a couple Asca shows we attended recently also, well not so recently!

Thank you to all the judges who recognized my dogs. The Scott’s for all their help and letting me breed to their boys. And of course to Brittany Johnson for handling my kids.

So finally an update on our ASCA nationals. So this little girl decided she would not be left behind. She climbed into my tack box while I was packing.
I didn’t get her until after nationals entry closed. But she was entered in the three pre shows, with a different handler every time. Daphne earned a respectable 2nd, 3rd, and 4th in her class. Thank you for taking her in everyone. I know she was a pistol! And thank you so much to the Judges who placed her.
Daphne is by Doug, Ch. Meadolawn Calloway Well Played and Curie, Ch. Artemisia Spring Fever Radioactive. Her sister Kate won BOS puppy at the National show. Congrats Ashley Wersinger, who bred the litter. We hope to see both at USASA futurity next year

While we were out of state competing at Australian Shepherd Nationals in Nebraska a trainee bather decided he needed money and was a groomer, and opened my shop for grooming. Made a “walk ins welcome” sign even and put out front. I have no idea how many dogs he worked on. He had a key to the shop to feed and water cats and fish only. Totally against my rules of course, when I am gone shop closes! I repaired the one dog he “groomed” the best I could yesterday.

So just giving a call out to anyone that brought their dog into Posh Pets between October 9-23. Even dogs that just received a nail cut, the Maltese didn’t even have her nails cut, part of a regular grooming of course.
Please feel free to bring your dog so I can redo it, no charge of course. Just give me a call so I can fit you into the schedule. And I also believe he may have overcharged some and you may have a credit coming. He is no longer here working here of course.
I posted some pictures of one of the dogs he did, the white Maltese. Also added some pictures of the dogs that I have groomed since getting back, just for reference of what a dog normally looks like when groomed at Posh Pets!
I am so sorry this happened. I had no idea of what was going on at the shop until we came back.

A couple videos of Confettis pups having morning play time with Dee Dee. I think they were a bit disappointed the three month old had no milk bar to offer though.

The gang saying we want out of this box! that’s Encore trucking around in the back, he is little but mighty. Really catching up now that they are getting their raw food in with some formula. We’ll get some individual pictures up soon.

Our Marquee/ Confetti puppies are four weeks old already. Just really late in posting! Two black tri girls, two black tri boys, and three blue Merle boys. They were born in a hotel room, so we went with a hotel theme for box names. Boys are Bellagio, Luxor, Hilton, and Hyatt. Girls are Paris and Encore.
