Hello Everyone,
I just joined this forum as I am on the prowl for my first dobie puppy in 28 years. It's been to long. We just lost our show ridgeback puppy to bone cancer at 13 months of age and decided to change to a different smarter breed. He was a good dog though and we sure do miss him. A little about us. I own a pet grooming salon/boutique for 22 years, been in florida for 30 years, originally from chicago. I started showing dogs in high school, maltese, then moved to florida and got involved in IG"S and saluki, the Igs were not the breed for me, and stuck with salukis and got into papillons. The salukis have all passed on and then we got our ridgeback. We still have the papillons shown on occasion by a judge/breeder/mentor/mom, I do enjoy showing myself when I have the time. I treat it like a hobby and like keeping the fun part in it. WE currently have 3 papillons, 3 pet poodles(models) 2 cats, one barn cat one indoor devon rex, 4 miniature horses. We live on 5 acres, so a perfect place for a dobie to be at its happiest.
