Connie, Aubrey and Kade

A relaxing day was spent out in the back woods as Aubrey tries to teach some of the Malagold dogs to create "Snow Dog" angels - but as you can see, she is not all too successful in her attempt, although the dogs are very willing to play any other form of "Cover Aubrey in Snow"!

WOO HOO!! Libby is back! And back big time! It was nice to have Libby hanging around with Tom and Mary Schulz - being the sofa dog, chasing the deer from the backyard and all - but now that she has grown up a little bit, she can really make an entrance!

Tom and Malagold's Lady Liberty win their class in the Puppy Sweepstakes and continue on to take Best of Opposite in Sweepstakes under judge Ellen Hardin. Way to go, Libby!

Libby continued on her way to a second place ribbon in the regular classes, competing in the Puppy Bitch 12-18 month class.
