Poet at age 4
Poet always fun, fun, fun.  Unfortunately for me, I did not seriously train or trial with Poet until he was almost 5 years old.  Of course that was OK with Poet, always willing and ready to go.

Poet winter 2007 age 9
Poet holds a very special place in our hearts, and the hearts of many. A very special soul with the incredible knack of making you feel like you are the most important person on this earth when he is with you.  Always living for the moment.

Summer 2006 
Clayton age 4 & Poet age 8
  Two friends;  Poet helps to show Clay how much fun the sport of agility can be with his canine friends.  Although not Poet's first time in the ring, this was Clay's first time in competition, and on "C" Championship level courses.  The both thoroughly enjoyed themselves. 

CHRISTMAS 2009
Born a blonde pup, more then a decade ago,
Little did I know all the places I would go.

My mom and my handler taught me all that I know,
Earned legs, placed & titled, and put on a show.

My dedication to family is one sure to be proud,
Friends, family and the puppies, and all that did crowd.

Life created memories that long will last,
Yet somber are those whose fleeting is fast.

Now that Poetry is written, the story is clear,
Full of love, joy and happiness through all of the years.

On Dakota, Wrigley, Mischief and me makes four,
All truly blessed to have shared your floor.

I'm safely at home and the future is bright,
Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night.
