Chelsea and Tex were a great team before. Mike and Karen’s training and conditioning was the icing on the cake, and Chelsea loved showing him this weekend.
After 7 months away from her, he did not skip a beat and picked up right where he left off! On their first day back in the ring at the inaugural Hound Association of Northern California specialty Tex won BOV (15 inch) under judge Robin Riel, Owner-Handled Hound Group 2nd under judge Stephen Cabral and a cut in a packed hound group under judge Bryan Martin
On Saturday, Tex wins his second BOV today under judge Eugene Blake and topped off the day with Owner-Handled Hound Group 1st under judge Lori L Nelson
On Sunday, Tex wins Best in Specialty Show at the Stockton Beagle Club under judge Stephen Cabral among a wonderful entry 
Tex also won Best of Variety this morning and onto Owner-Handled Reserve Best in Show under judge Lori L Nelson. And finally, he capped off the night by winning Bred-By Exhibitor Best in Show under judge David Salcido!!!
I mean – does it get much better than this?? <3 I am such a proud owner and breeder of this fabulous dog.
Mishkas babies are being well fed and cared for – she doesnt make us worried and the babies are very content.
We named them after the solar eclipse that happened while Mish was pregnant.
Enjoy the babies

What a weekend to remember, and to experience it all with friends made it 10000% better.
The weather is starting to get more consistent and the puppies love playing with our bog dogs. we have a couple of guests staying while they are shown by me at local shows so just more fun
I was scheduled to go to the Spokane/CDL show, and so I asked a good friend of mine Jamie to whelp Mishka’s litter. She does such a good job and I am grateful to her for being my back up. You can see Mish is totally comfortable with Jamie and her home.
Mishka went into labor in the morning and then had her first baby in the late morning. We got a boy – 9.9oz
Second baby took it’s time – once seen, it was obvious why. A large well marked girl – 12.24oz
Puppy three was another girl – a bi color and weighed in at 11.21oz – still a very good sized pup
Our last puppy arrived around 4pm and was a 3rd girl (yeah) 10.76oz
Mom and babies all are thriving and well. I am so so thankful for these gorgeous beagle puppies to raise and enjoy.
Phoenix and Watson’s pups are now 7 weeks old. It rained a bit this weekend so I figured this was a perfect time to do their blue chair photos – and they didn’t disappoint me 🙂
Gosh I love these sweet wee boys

So proud of our homebred Audrey (now MBISS GCH Kazuri N Van-Mar Trouble at Tiffany’s) on winning her second Best in Specialty Show today under breeder-judge Sue Bownds!
Audrey won this specialty last year, too 
She is one of the beautiful offspring of our Spencer x Puddin litter proudly bred by myself Sarah Sweetman and Chelsea Metteer, and lovingly owned and shown by Terri Papagni-Carter and Daniel Carter.
Congratulations, all and job well done! 
Our sweet cavalier boys are 7 weeks old and we have had the nicest weather. As such, it has given them so much opportunity to play outside and interact (always supervised) with our other dogs. I love how gentle our beagles, cavaliers and golden are with the tiny babies, and how brave the little ones are trying to keep up with the older dogs.
Enjoy these photos of them at 7 weeks

The PNW is so pretty in the Spring with all the blossoms falling and the vibrant colors everywhere.
The cavalier puppies are now confident enough on their feet that I felt like they could have an adventure to explore outside (supervised of course) in the warm sun. It was about 65 degrees this morning and so they spent about 20 mins exploring
