Ch. Daphne Moon Out of Sight

A Great Day for Daphne!

Daphne got her sutures out today from where she had the brown recluse spider bite. She had an entire mammary gland removed. There were about 20 stitches, and she is now healed very nicely.

I Almost Lost Daphne

Daphne’s Heat Cycle and Clyde’s Foot

She will be bred to Limu ( https://shepherdsight.com/2026/02/25/i-found-the-right-boy/ )when she comes into heat. I saw blood on the floor yesterday, but alas, afterContinue reading “Daphne’s Heat Cycle and Clyde’s Foot”

Champion Trademark’s Limu Emu is professionally handled by Adrienne Isham. He is shown here in his professional win picturesContinue reading “I Found the Right Boy!”
