Monday Update

Congratulations to Lawrence and Chase (Wildflowers aka K Litter) on finishing the Open Jumpers Preferred title yesterday 🎉

Well done, Team Chase!

Not to be outdone, Wildflower Kadi earned her OJP and OAP yesterday!! WOWZA!!! Congratulations to Eden and Kadi 🩷

Their littermate, Pozy, won’t be doing agility or much of anything for a while — she had her right knee repaired (TPLO) on Friday.

Pozy is doing remarkably well, and does not think she needs to be confined. She is demanding a Patient Advocate but that is not an available service to her. 🏥🤷🏼‍♀️ She stays in jail for two weeks. A VERY LONG two weeks for all of us, I am sure.

Meanwhile, Starry G is settling into life as an only puppy 🩷

I hope your Monday is amazing ❤️

Gems

Jasper sent a message to his sister 😂

😝

Starry G misses her brothers but says not to tell them that 🤐 This morning she met a giant cat while we were on a little walk — the cat was also on a walk!

Sapphire is all settled into his life in Minnesota 💙

Tommy Topaz.

Jennifer reports that Tommy, “hasn’t met anyone that he doesn’t wag his tail at” — I love that!!!!

Kaibab's Name That Puppy Already

Although the title of this post would be a super funny name for an N Litter puppy, that is not her name.

Her registered name had to start with an N — not the easiest of letters — and include the word, “bright.”

Why bright? It is a family name that started with Halo (Bright Angel). Halo had Zoey (Forever Bright) who had Sparkle (Incandescently Bright) who had Claire (Justifiably Bright) who had Capella (Luminous Bright Star).

Whew.

She is my Rainbow Puppy.

In less than a year I have lost three of my beloved girls, including her grandmother (Claire) and her great-grandmother (Sparkle) 💔💔💔

Claire and Sparkle

I knew I wanted the puppy’s name to feel like a legacy name, and include the word, “star.”

There were a lot of rules and wants for this girl’s registered name!

So here it is — her registered name is Kaibab’s Next Bright Sparkle Star ⭐️

The call name — that has also been hard.

Sparkle’s name was supposed to just be her litter name. I did not want to name her Sparkle for her real name because it seemed like a stripper name 🤷🏼‍♀️

But it just suited her — she sparkled and the name is so fun and happy. And so Sparkle kept her stripper name.

Sparkle

Like her great-grandmother, this puppy is basically keeping her stripper name because I really cannot find anything else that suits her 🤷🏼‍♀️

We will call her Starry.

Given her family, she meets the definition.

But we remember and miss Harper B as well, and so we will usually add the G.

Starry G.

The G is for Garnet but my son, Galen, will say it is for him — because the Gems were born on his birthday 🙄

Starry G is perfect ⭐️

In every way.
