Rio's (and the B-litter's) stunning dad Lakota, or CHAMPION SIOUX WARRIOR.
Can't leave him out as he's very much part of the family and we meet him often at shows with his owner Thea Jellicoe and handler Tish Gaffey. Ripley says she wants more puppies with him and flirts a lot, but no, sorry, she's retired !!
Lakota. Photos from Thea.
My daughter Rebecca sent me this for my birthday in February 2007. I think she'll have a career as a cartoonist!
Pippin the rescued Labrador who has lived with us since June 2007. She belongs to Johns mother and lives
in her part of the bungalow. Pippin was picked up as a stray by the police and was never claimed from the stray kennels.
She has a ridge on her nose just like Xanda, Fionn and Ginny
***********************************
Ripley and Rio took part in Discover Dogs at Crufts 2007 (on Gundog day) to represent their breed. They had a LOT of fun and loved greeting all visitors.
Posing for visitors -they had their picture taken a LOT of times.
Rio
Even when Ripley finally got tired, Rio still wanted to say hello to people.
But at the end of the day, Rio got tired too.
Rio
