About Winx:
Winx was always a happy, bouncy girl. Even the last 2 times showing her, she was so happy to be working. Such a little show-off! She acted just like a puppy in the obedience trial just a month ago. She ran her little heart out in the FastCAT we put her in just a little before that running 24 mph! Winx was happy doing anything and everything (except dock diving, she hated that) as long as we did it together. Her favorites were FastCAT and tricks. Bang! was her favorite trick, so much drama! Her huge personality won over the hearts of everyone. Even if they didn’t like dogs, they ended up loving her. She was and will always be our little sunshine girl!

Please write a short note about what they enjoyed doing most:

Rambo was a little dog with a BIG attitude. He literally came to our door and said, “I’m home!” he loved to ride on the motorcycle with me. He loved hunting rats and chasing plastic bags. He totally changed my attitude about little dogs. I am proud to say that I belonged to the best little dog in the world.

Jade always wanted to be with us and enjoyed retrieving her toys and sticks. She ALWAYS loved to play in the snow. Jade liked being in the ring with me and made Rally look easy. Looking back on her photos, we have several where we caught her laughing with her eyes squinted close and a big grin on her face. Jade was my demo dog in Advanced Beginners for six or seven years during which time she met a lot of dogs and always subtlety reminded them who I belonged to.
