Re: [pyrnet] GPCA Nationals Winners

to Ch Maranatha Pyreau's C Dickens:

Hey Daddy ! Congratulations! You are a handsome fellow and I am glad you are my dad.

from Maranatha Charlemagne (aka Charlie)

ps Congratualtions to your kennel buddies too

pps I am busy doing my job in New Hampshire as a companion to my humans and my new buddy Whitehope Sweet Madeleine (Sweetie). We have determined that are no wolves or bears on High Street and aim to keep it that way. I showed Sweetie the best places to lay in the shade and keep an eye on the yard as well as the way to stretch out on the dog couch for maximum snoozing comfort. Just this morning someone told my non-furry Mom how handsome I am, so I must take after you and Mom but I will leave all the ribbon winning and puppy raising to you! Bravo!
