Rita
This is a very exciting little lady,
quite stylish and feminine!
A half-sister to Peter, she's shown here
 at just over 6 months old
 - you can see she's starting to turn silver.
                                           
        Rita is a happy girl, very sweet and intelligent.
 She was born July 24,2003.
Our plans are for her to become our silver foundation brood bitch.
Her first litter is expected in the spring of 2007
We can hardly wait!		  
                                           
        Text Box: Rio Grande Kennel Club Albuquerque, New Mexico May 2004 Only her 2nd point, but it came on a weekend that featured the Enchanted Poodle Club's Specialty show.  That's me making jokes with the judge.

Mount Ogden, Utah
May 2004

This was Rita's first point towards her championship.  We all had a great time at this little outdoor show.

Thank you to the
judges who found Rita
worthy and rewarded
her with
Winners Bitch
twice as a puppy!

  
                           
                                           
  This is Rita's 1st show
in her big girl hair at 13 months old
 As you can see, outdoor shows
are always an adventure.
This one featured the Colorado
Grand Mesa and the back side
of Hurricane Javier, with rain
and canopies regularly rolling
through the rings!  The judge and I are
 smiling, but the look on Rita's face
says it all - Let's get in out of the rain!
