A Few of the
2013 All Breed Highlights |
|
Instead of All Breed
Highlights, here are a few
friends |
|
that deserve big thanks.
|
|
Normally we list winning highlights, but this year, we
thought we would share a few well deserved Thank You's.
|
|
 |
|
These groups of pictures is not just about wins, but
about friends in the dog world, and giving credit to
those we have worked with. |

When faced with a litter of 16,
Judy Tuck drove five hours from Maine and stayed at Topsfield for
several days with me to help with a challenging litter of 16.
|
|
Anne Testoni also gave up her weekend, driving four
hours the day the puppies were born and worked 24/7.
Both dropped everything and came to help. Thanks,
guys. |
|
|
|
A Big Thank You to Judy, Anne and my vets and their techs. |

When Sue
was busy
with
puppies
and
things
at home
at the
kennel,
Candy
Carswell
stepped
up to
the
plate
and
spent
untold
hours
working
with the
dogs.
|
|
|
|
Candy is
a great
handler,
and a
loyal
and kind
friend
to
Topsfield.
She
embraces
all
challenges
with a
great
attitude
and a
big
heart.
|
|
Her care
of the
dogs is
great,
she has
a soft
hand and
understands
the
Bassets
very
well.
|
|
Thank
you
Candy
for all
that you
have
done for
us.
