I started showing dogs in 1973 with CH Blazing Star In The Belfry CDX. She was my first Belgian Sheepdog. From then on I had the Dog Show Bug. I have shown Belgian Sheepdogs, Belgian Tervuren, Keeshonds, Old English Sheepdogs and now Papillons.
After retiring in 2002, we bought our first Papillons. My husband and I went to buy one pet and came home with two. At that time we also had a beautiful Golden Retriever named Breeze. She loved the butterflies till we lost her to cancer in 2007. I attended the PCA National in San Antonio in 2007. There I fell in love with Copella’s Smoking Aces. He is a multiple Best Of Breed winner and Award Of Merit winner.
We have since added several new Papillons to our family. Fumi – Namaste Jitterbug Perfume has had our first litter of Papillons. She was bred to CH Namaste Queen Bless Villa Incognito. She has blessed us with 2 females and one male.
Jada – Copella Namaste Texas Heatbreaker began her show career in March 2009.
We still love our original pets Buddy, Sissy, and Petie. If you see us at a dog show be sure and say “Hello” as we would enjoy meeting with you.
