Tribute to CH Coedwig's Carbon Blue ROMg

April 24, 1995 - April 17, 2010
A grand dog has passed among us and lives with us in so many of our Cardigans. My current litter has a lot of this great dog in them. I am so indebted to Kim Shira for his legacy of breed type and temperament in my beginnings as a breeder.

Bemusement

Almost 5 weeks old. I have had a crazy week on top of the puppies becoming much more active and learning games like "Where's the Potty" and "How Hard Can I Bite My Brother Before He Squeals Like a Pig." Also time to start introducing them to what happens on a table. It's too soon to tell which ones are destined for the show life so they all get a chance at this. As you can see they were less than thrilled.

Special thanks to my daughters, Chloë and Lexie, for helping!!

Panda's 15 minutes

The photo was apparently taken last year when Panda was entered. Thank you Kim and Mark for finding and creatively acquisitioning the poster and then framing it to boot. Very sweet.
