Cindi those pics are fantastic! Harper in action, I love them.

[billytommymommy]

Those are GREAT photos I love the last one of him doing the poles, it should be in sports illustrated (if it was I might start to read it)!

Congrats to you and Harper also!

Heheh! GREAT shots this time!! What a handsome boy- and so agile! Congrats on the new title, Harper, you over achiever! ;)

Eek! That batch is even MORE CUTENESS! His expression on the weaves is hilarious!!

[kpm_tex]

Those came out great Cindi! What was the photogaphers company name? I never got a chance to go look... maybe they have some on their website of Badger posing on top of the A-frame.

[Julian&MistyMom]

Harper is gorgeous!! Love the flying ears!! Beautiful boy in motion!! Congratulations!!!! Well done!!

[Irminsul]

Great pictures! He looks like he is having so much fun!:cheer:

[Cindi]

Harper is a lot of fun and he is toooooo darn cute :) Bit talky though as you can hear him coming in ANY building!!

Now, his adoptive sister Vegas......definitely up for adoption after HER behavior on the course :( And I was sooooooooooo fortunate, 3 separate people came up to tell me they had HER performance on tape. THANK YOU VERY MUCH! I will never forget it as it is :(

2MC Designs did the photography and they do have a website. Karen, it might not take them long to get these pictures up and you, too, can have a CD of your dog <G>

[blazeman]

What... a little wire dachsie being talkative? :)

Those are great pics. You can share the entire CD if you want. We won't say anything!! :)

The first weave picture... he looks like he's using his butt to help make the turn :)

He sure looks like he has grown up since I helped you post this...

[Cindi]

That is so cute. It's so hard to remember he was ever that little......

Isn't it nice I finally learned how to post pictures myself <G>?

I will share more after my workout - had to get myself a trainer and everything cuz I'm laaaaaaaaazzzzzzyyyyy! Figure if I pay for it I will exercise more <GG>

Great pictures!! Wonderful job done by Harper

[fdcutee]

Wow! Great pictures. Harper looks awesome out there on the course.

[Suzanne R]

Great shots! I just LOVE to go and watch the agility trials - what a hoot!! Congratulations to you and Harper - great accomplishment!!

[Orchid Crazy]

Great shots! The first one is priceless - it all came so easy to him, he was bored!!! YAWN!!! I also love the one of him with his ears flying, eye closed, weaving through those poles. Congrats on his title!!!

[Christena]

The pics are great and congratualtions to both of you.
I love the last one; he looks like he is winking as he comes through the poles.

Now, his adoptive sister Vegas......definitely up for adoption after HER behavior on the course :( And I was sooooooooooo fortunate, 3 separate people came up to tell me they had HER performance on tape. THANK YOU VERY MUCH! I will never forget it as it is

Well... since you brought it up... :D Vegas started out just fine in her Novice Jumpers run.. that is until she saw the judge standing there. Vegas then blew off mom and ran up to the judge and started jumping up.. "Look at me! Look at me!" While mom is vainly trying to get her back on course.. Seeing that the jumping was not working Vegas then rolled over on her back.. tail wagging a mile a minute... "Belly Rub, Judge.. Belly Rub..Paaahhhhleeeess?????" No reaction from the judge but the crowd was going wild.. Another attempt at jumping and rolling over resulted in more cheering from the crowd and mom coming over and picking up her shamless fur kid before stalking off the course. :rofl: Priceless !

[Joyce]

What fun to see all those action shots. Keep up the good work.

[Schatz's Mom]

Look at that boy go! That photographer did a great job! Congrats to you both!

[Maxwells Mama]

how cute . i really like your pictures. He seems to have alot fun doing Agility. Good job:cheer:

[SaraInCT]

He looks like he is having a blast. Great action shots.

[Leslie]

I love the last one in the poles it looks like hes winking and saying Oh yeah im good!

[MicheleS]

What great action shots!!

[Frzframe]

Those are great. Love to see the little guys in action and congrats to both of you guys. :cheer:

Loved the recap of Vegas' try. :blush:

Thank you!!! I just love the pictures this time :)

Cindi

OMG! As I've said before, I'm just in LOVE with wires...next one will be one for sure :) Thanks for the eye candy Cindi!

[TessieMom]

Great shots of Harper! I am sure that sis will come along eventually. Congratulations on Harper's return to agility with attitude and title!!!!! Lu gets to go play at Will Rogers this weekend for the TWANG trial. I hope that she can do a fraction as well.

[Cindi]

Wow! Maybe I need to come watch Lu!!! <G> Good luck even IF I don't make it.

Hmmm, maybe I should come, bring Vegas and see if there are any unsuspecting people who would THINK she was a performance dog and adopt her <GG>?

Thanks for everyone's kind words.....now Karen M - where are YOUR pictures???

Cindi

[Girrl's mom]

Isn't it nice I finally learned how to post pictures myself?

Cindi

VERY nice that you learned to post! I've always wanted to see more of your dogs from the few that others posted for you.

Need some closeups of a wire stripped by a pro, too. Show the rest of us wire owners how it ought to be done.

Oh, and any puppies are required to be posted.

[Dachshundrsq]

These are FANTASTIC, a HUGE Congrats to You and Harper on the new title..
WooooHoooooo! :D

[Cindi]

For the kind words!!! 2MCDesign has a website where you can see other dachshunds :) They were the photographer for the weekend...Ft Worth is the event. Let's see, by last names you need to see:
Barclay (now co-owns Wrinkles and has Harper's brother), Graham (has my boy Wrinkles brother) McQuiston or Shaffmaster, Mann, Tatro and Todd - there are some there I didn't post <G>

Enjoy!!

Cindi

PS Will try to post some recent pictures of groomed dogs. However, the coat type lends a lot to the ease or lack there-of for grooming :) At the present, all of my dogs have excellent harsh coats requiring little grooming for maintenance - YEAH!!!! I used to prefer those with more coat so that I could *play* with the final outcome more but now that I'm older, I like less work even it means a whole lot less furnishings.

OH and puppies won't be made until Vegas comes in season and then she will be bred to Wrinkles via AI - he has been sperm-banked and neutered <G>

Here are some links to Badger and Merry... neither one had a great weekend. I've been working crazy hours and have had NO time to practice... Plus Badger was finding boogers under rocks to be scared of. So for the first time in a real long time we came away with no qualifying scores. The good news is Badger jumped really well all weekend.. the bad news is I had to take him off the A-frame twice.. but on Sunday he did it... just decided he wouldn't do the weaves.... it's always something. Merry was being Merry... steady but slow and avoiding the weaves just to tick me off. Hopefully we'll be back on a winning track by October
Anyway.....I have not bought the pictures yet.. you'll have to go to the links to see them.
Love the ears....
