And Happy Birthday to Taboo & Primo!!!!!!
I can't beleive how fast time flys when you are having the time of your life!!! Five years ago today Shredder had her litter by Moso!!
There was never a doubt in my mind as to which puppy was staying here with me. Masher was a fluffy chubby puppy that always seemed to have a smile on his face and a certain joy when he met people or did new stuff..... kind of a "here I am... Taaaa Daaaaaa" attitude!!
Masher is EVERYTHING I could ever dream of in a pet and an agility partner. He is extra mushy, super high drive, has a GREAT work ethic, LOVES to play the game with ME, crazy fast, funny, handsome... freckles and all and is producing very nice puppies :)
I have met amazing people, traveled to wonderful places, competed against the top teams from around the world, acheived my wildest dreams and most of all I am becoming a better handler, trainer, teacher and dog person all because of my little Mashy!!!!
I named Masher - Livewire It's All Gravy and it could not be a more fitting name, because after losing Shredder, I TRULY enjoy and savor EVERY SINGLE day and EVERY SINGLE run I get with my incredible little dog.... the MACH's.. the Grand Prixs...the Steeplechases....the gold medals..... It's All Gravy!!!!!
So here are my favorite photos of some of our amazing memories.....
I tried to pick out just a couple of my favorite photos but that was too hard so I ended up putting a couple of extra:)
Happy Birthday Squishy!!!!!
