CV Cap 7/16/1999 - 12/21/2011
An extraordinary dog, and the man that understood him well. 
Don Helsley has lost his great dog Cap. Oh how we dread these days, to witness such deep love ripped apart. You do not cry alone Sir, for we all mourn with you. Your loss is great, as he was a noble dog, that we all respected. I am told as a young dog he was a handful, but you formed a bond and you understood him well. It was a pleasure to watch the two of you together. He loved you, and you loved him, and it was wonderful, and enough. What more can a man achieve with an animal, but the trophy of love. Take Care, Don and Jeanie we feel your pain. Good bye CV Cap, you will be missed.

A match made in heaven

Midge is now partnered up with Laurie Kruger of Newman Lake Washington.
They are smitten with each other already. People often ask how we can sell our dogs, the truth is it can be hard, but it is also very, very rewarding, when you see Laurie and Midge together you will see why.

Serge

Congratulations to Bob Otterson, of Washington State. He is the new owner of Serge. I am pleased to say we didn't have to say good bye, Serge will be staying with us for the time being to continue his training program. Look for him next summer on the trial field!
