Piper

INT'L & UKC CH Tifari's Simply Sinful, CD SC RE NAP CGC HIC

Bred By Exhibitor : International Reserve Best In Show Feb. 2010

Piper is a very energetic and active puppy, always on the go and getting into mischief. We are showing her is Conformation and Obedience, but hope she will *shine* 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 is working towards her VC-Versatility Certificate.
