A Trip to Maggie Valley, NC

This place is rather nice...some gentleman stopped and told me that I was the "Clark Gable" of all dogs......I guess that is a compliment.
Where did you say I am??? Oh yes - North Carolina!! Pretty beautiful place.......
Took Nova to the SESSA event in North Carolina. What a fabulous setting for a show! Nova got to meet a whole new bunch of friends, as did we.....
Fred Lanting was at the event and measured the dogs - Nova at 14 months measured 30 inches and is 103 lbs!

Nova turns "1" !!!!!

Our "little" baby turns one today. What an amazing pup he has turned out to be! He LOVES to play - to the point of driving Manny and Aiko crazy!! He is a MAD kisser, almost drowns you with affection.
He is going to have his Penn Hip xrays done tomorrow. He had his heart certification done last week - complete with echocardiogram - and he has a GREAT heart! Sam and I measured him at the withers tonight and got three measurements, all between 29 and 30 inches. His weight last week at the cardiologist's was 97 lbs. He is a very big, lean boy.

Nova 8 months old!!


8 months old and HUGE lean puppy machine!! Hanging in mom and dad's bed with Kallie and Manny. When we had Nova at the Providence Pet Show, someone asked why he was so much "skinnier" than Manny - I answered, because he is only 7 months old - Manny is 4 years old!!!
