Family Portrait

With Memphis visiting, I thought it would be fun to take a quick family portrait and despite the heat, the dogs put up with sitting for a few minutes while I took a few shots and then were rewarded with treats.

Summertime fun!

Summer vacation is in full swing and we love to enjoy the outdoors.  Today, we met a friend with her two Vizslas and went for a lovely hike and then the dogs practiced water retrieves.  Savi is a natural retriever and I think, part fish!  She gets super excited and absolutely loves to swim and retrieve.  In fact, she enjoyed her role as the cleanup dog when the other dogs couldn't bring the bumpers back.  Savi also screams like a banshee when she impatiently waits for her turn.  Watching her swim is pure joy and she will retrieve over and over.  I took a short video with my Iphone of her doing a water retrieve.   Managed to get the whole thing without dropping the phone!

2012 Blue Ribbon Ad for Savi

Savi's ad appearing in the annual Blue Ribbon issue of The Weimaraner Magazine, the official publication of the Weimaraner Club of America. This beautiful ad was designed the very talented, Sara Renee of Sara Renee Photos & Design.  The lovely rock photo and retrieving shots were taken by KellyAnn Kwiatek.  I will be posting all the Grayhart ads over the next few days.

Parker - future hubby!

Beautiful photo of Parker, BISS GCH HiBourne's It's All About Me, BROM, with owner/breeder/handler, Steve Lane, winning a Sporting Group 1 in the Owner-Handler Series at the Long Island Kennel Club Show on May 20, 2012.

We adore Parker, who is the sire of our first litter, and has grown into a handsome boy and fabulous producer. We have plans to breed Savi, CH Grayhart's Shear Genius, JH,NSD,NRD,CGC,V, to him in late 2012.

Working girl

Savi did a fabulous high fashion editorial photo shoot Friday for a top international fashion magazine. The studio was located at Chelsea Piers in New York City. While waiting to be called to set, Savi hung out on the gorgeous outdoor roof deck. We look forward to seeing the spread in the August issue of the magazine.

Our agent Nancy from AllTame and the client's representative. You can see Savi adores them!

The diva hard at work!

Field trip

 

At obedience class Thursday night, we took a field trip to the local train station. What better way to incorporate real life distractions into our training regimen. Above, group stays and below, Savi, practicing her stand for exam, waiting to be examined. We also did off lead recall and Savi nailed them as well held her stays. A bonus was to enjoy the beautiful spring evening during class and walking to and from the train station!
