Then we have Gage pretending to be Elvis. His friends at the nursing home were very impressed with him and he brought much laughter to many. Of course I was dressed like a teenage Elvis fan.

Funny Dog

Dalmatians have a way of making us laugh each day. Here are a couple of pictures of Gage as he makes me chuckle.

Gage sneaks up on my grandson Dalton for a quick nibble of graham cracker.

Gage knows how to relax.

Two New Canine Good Citizens

An exciting day today as two Kingdom kids earn their Canine Good Citizen designations. While Peet & Jazz are only 9 1/2 months old, they showed the older dogs how it is done, as they passed the AKC Canine Good Citizens test with flying colors. They also passed the therapy dog test but will have to wait until they are a year old and retest to become registered therapy dogs. They are pictured here with the judges that tested them today.

Therapy Visit

Jazz & Peet came today to join us for a pet therapy visit. They both did extremely well and the residents were so happy to see them and to see how much they have grown. Lisa Bauer and Cindy Kulikowski are doing such a great job with these two sweet puppies.

Bunny Dog

Is it a rabbit or is it a dog? Oh, it's a Steeler dog! Received this cute picture of Steeler running and it made me laugh. Dalmatians have so much fun. Steeler is Gage's brother from Gia's first litter and is owned by Jennifer Jackson from Massachusetts.

New Champion!

We are very proud to announce Kingdom Dalmatians newest Champion. On June 28th 2008 at the Bushy Run Kennel Club show, Gage was Winners Dog, Best of Winners and Best of Breed, to finish his championship. To make his finish even more special, he took a group 4 placement that day and again the following day. He will now be known as CH.Kingdom's Twist of Fate CGC, TDI. Gage was bred by myself & Barb Allison and is owned, shown and much loved by me.

Fire Dog

Ryan impresses the crowds as he rides atop of the fire truck in a parade. He has become a real socialite and crowd pleaser. Great job Ryan!

Another Major For Gage

Gage won his second major this past Sunday. He now only needs 1 single point to become an AKC champion. I am so proud of this very sweet dog.

Gage was co-bred by myself and Barb Allison. He is the son of BISS Ch. McDottie Keenen Irish "Jigs" and Rim Rock N Siobahn X's n O's "Gia". Owned and shown by me.

Therapy Work

Jazz & Peet joined us today at the home for some pet therapy work. They were a huge hit with the residents and both behaved extremely well and impressed everyone. To make it even more interesting, Dalton joined the group too. What could be more fun than puppies and babies? They all brought smiles to many faces today.

Pedro & Tomasz

Pedro and owner Tomasz go for a ride. Tom says Pedro loves going for rides and especially to his friends houses. Tom says Pedro is an AWESOME dog.

Surprise from Cassidy

We were surprised and pleased to receive this great picture for Mothers Day from one of Zoe's daughters. This is Cassidy and she is nine years old now. Cassidy lives in Erie with a great family that includes two children that were pretty young when they got her but are now quite grown up. How exciting to see Cassidy looking so well.

Happy Mothers Day From Jazz

Gia was pleased to receive a Mothers Day card and picture from her little daughter Jazz. I hear she is doing a great job at agility even though she has not done a class yet. What a great girl!

Hero & Buster

Here is Hero with one of his friends. I understand he is good with cats as well as dogs. Good boy Hero! He continues his weekly nursing home visits with Trent and is making many people happy. He seems to know when to be calm and when to be more active with the residents.

Peet & Gage

Gage invited baby brother Peet to join him for a pet therapy visit. The residents loved seeing both of them and were so surprised at how much Peet has grown. These boys brought smiles to many faces. The folks remarked at how much alike these two boys are in looks and personality. One in brown and one in black.

Geno is growing

For those that haven't seen Geno/Andy in awhile you may be surprised at how much he has grown. He has always had a face to die for and that certainly has not changed.

Gage takes Best of Breed

Gage & I headed back to the show ring after a six month break. How exciting to have him go Winners Dog, Best of Winners and Best of Breed and add another two points to his total. He now has 11 AKC points and one major toward his Championship. It shouldn't be long now. Good boy Gage!

New Title For Steeler

We were so excited today to see Ryan once again. He has grown so much since leaving here. What a beautiful puppy he is and a spittin image of Daddy Tolliver. He had a grand time playing with his mother Gia and big brother Gage. Charlie & Michelle are doing a fantastic job with his care and socialization.
