Cooper

Cooper is our old soul – at nearly 11, we are aware that we will soon be on borrowed time with him.  My friend Sacha Blue met us in Kirkland this sunny evening.  At the last minute I decided to bring the dogs and I am so glad I did as she captured this beautiful portrait of my son, my mom and Cooper.

6 years ago we brought him to the USA from New Zealand and I haven’t regretted that decision once.  He was my first beagle love and our very start in this beautiful breed.

Welcoming Maddy

After much deliberation, we talked to Sheri from Foxtail beagles about acquiring a puppy from her recent litter.  Maddy is the half sister to Stella (both being sired by JJ – BIS BISS CH Foxtails Race for the Race) but Maddy is closer aligned to what I want in a show puppy (and ultimately to breed from).

So we welcome Madison (aka Foxtails Dreaming of the Race) to our family.  <3
