6-12-11 - Darcey in front and Hondo behind her.  They were listening to the video on the Tifari blog showing the Hondo x Rylee puppies crying.  Hondo prefers not being around for their care; but Darcey might enjoy playing with them when they're older ; )
Too bad the pups live in Pennsylvania : (
But at least we can watch them grow on the web cam, blog and website.

Terry with Darcey.  A little bit stretched out, but showing off that nice neck. 

Darcey is maturing into a nice girl.  Maybe she'll get back into the show ring this Spring/Summer.  Her last show was the National in September 2010 and you can see that she's matured since those photos.
