Puppy Party

A number of dog-loving friends were in town for the Rose City Classic dog show and we invited them to the house to visit and socialize with the puppies.

The pup's visitors included Chili's breeder Sandy Overton and her "auntie" Annie Herberholz (who owns Chili's half-sister Glory). Sandy brought some loot for the puppies going-home goody bags. Janet Boyd, a good friend I met while we were both running our PWDs in agility years ago, came with her friend Dorit (a Malamute breeder and fancier). Jessie (who owns Stoker's cousin Rebel), Martha (owns Stoker's cousin Sailor) CJ (a good friend who helps entertain Decker in obedience and agility) and Julie (getting one of the puppies), also came to visit.

Janet bartended and whipped up a couple of yummy batches of martinis (key lime for the first batch and cheery cheesecake for the second). Everyone helped hold pups while we trimmed toenails yet again. After a long wait (hmm, must read cooking directions better next time) we enjoyed our meal of lasagna, garlic bread and salad while the puppies snoozed.

Here is a photoshow of the party.
