Angie & Piper 

Piper is a very energetic and active girl, always going "full speed" and getting into tons of mischief.  She has many nicknames,  including "Peeps" or "Pippa"  The house is never boring with this little spitfire around.  We are showing her in Conformation and Obedience, and she is excelling in the Agility Rings and on the Lure Coursing Field. Piper was our pick out of the 2008 Foosa x Captain Litter. The plan was to not keep a puppy, but something about her caught our heartstrings and we could simply not part with her. Her AKC registered name was picked because of this fact. The litter has mostly a Irish themed call names as they were born on St. Patrick's day, so we decided to call her "Piper". She has beautiful, flowing movement and very dark, expressive eyes.

Watch for Piper in the Conformation and Agility rings, as well as on the field as she has already earned her VC-Versatility Certificate at the young age of 3 years.  She is moving on towards her VCX- Versatility EXCELLENT. 

*NEWS* Piper recently earned an impressive 4 point Major at the Cleveland, OH shows.
