Kim, Kirk, Jonathon & Cash Rascher welcome a new Thornapple baby to the family!
Miss June is sired by Ch Thornapple Red Hot Outlaw. Her dam is Ch Thornapple
Island Kiss
Here are a couple of photos of little June. As you can see, she is not being
spoiled at all.
It was so nice to see you yesterday and to meet the crew. Everyone was so nice
and welcoming.
We loved to meet more of the Thornapple dogs, too. Jonathan would love to learn
how you take
the wonderful photos. He would like to find out how Maria makes them stand so
nicely.
June had a really good trip home. She was relaxed and napped on the middle seat.
We all took
turns sitting next to her. We made a stop along the way to purchase a girly
collar, pink toy and
a pink bowl, of course. June was the star of our trip to the pet store. One of
the clerks immediately
lift June out of Jonathan’s arms exclaiming, “What a beautiful red Aussie”.
People even got out
of line to meet June. As we were leaving the store a group of people were
entering. We had to go
back inside because one of the men wanted to take a photo of June. This also
allowed his companion,
a physically challenged blind woman to pet and snuggle June. The puppy handled
everything with the
utmost grace, enjoying every minute of the attention.
Meeting our other dogs went very well. June immediately flipped over and all was
well. Cash simply
loves her. He is very protective and almost seems to guard her. I expect them to
become fast friends.
We were amazed last evening when we took her out to go potty. She saw Cash climb
up the deck stairs
and she immediately tried to copy. She had to stop a couple of times along the
way but is a real go-getter.
I feel she will be very Velcro, like Cash. She follows me everywhere. She slept
pretty well overnight, though
she did howl when we put her in the crate. Ok, we are spoiling her already! She
is certainly a Thornapple.
