Dog Show Excitement --- a
Thornapple first!
While everyone slept in our travel trailer at 12:30 am July 4th, the house
across the street from our campsite
exploded when a pail of fireworks was accidentally set on fire. The house was
engulfed in flames and surrounded
by
fire trucks when the gang awoke. Thank God all people and animals made it out
safely. Amy snapped photos.

Thornapple Last Dance "Janay"
Hey Thornapple family, I
have great news again....
Today Janay became WB again, and she is almost naked ;-), I really didn't expect
it, I was in doubt if I should go ;-)
only 14 months Dutch Junior Champion and very close to her Dutch Championship,
she only needs 3/4 point, but I can
only finish her after her 27 months. It was so hot, really extreme, in the
ring you almost were fainting.....and the poor dogs,
We could leave earlier, normally we need to stay. I feel free to let you know
the other thornapple family news here.
Sydor -
Thornapple Shoot the Slapshot
from Petra was BOB, Alex -
Thornapple Double Jeopardy from Petra won
youth class and TJ Thornapple Thunder Jam from Jenny second in youth class so it
was a good thornapple day in the Netherlands,
17 Aussies entered and 4 Thornapples LOL. It was nice to see, half brother and
sister were WD and WB. So the CAC's and youth
CAC's are taken by the thornapple clan.....(Janay was also in youth class)
Rianne and little Miss Janay

Just thought that I

of their fields.
The dogs had such a great time running through the field! They love to
run, you should feel the muscle on these girls!
Take care, Angela
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANGELA!
