Jack was a part of our family for fifteen years.  He was a beautiful mixed breed.  His soft spaniel eyes spoke to me the day that I first saw him at the SPCA.  He was cherished by all of my family.

When I got Sonic from Chrisel Crain, I knew right away that I’d want another Akka baby so I got on the list for the next breeding.  I didn’t really plan on it happening so soon.  Or Tex’s arrival in the meantime.  Zealot and Tex are great dogs, despite being 4 months apart in age.  I work really hard to achieve the goals we have so far while still working with Sonic and keeping Icon active in the show ring.  The youngsters all get along well, even though the “wrassling” gets to be a little too much for me sometimes!  Zealot has been a natural in the field, picking up the birds on his own and delivering to hand.  He tries hard to avoid distractions in the obedience ring, yet still loves everyone he meets.  He is steady and honest in all rings.

Tex is our liver boy who started out as my husband’s dog. However, my husband didn’t realize how much work was involved in training the dogs, so I took over.  Tex is one of the sweetest dogs in our house.  He enjoys his therapy dog work.  He is a maniac about the water and enjoys his birds.  He is an honest worker and tries hard for me.  Tex is 4 months older than our other youngster, Zealot.  Having 2 puppies so close has been an experience that I would not repeat, but I would never give them up.
