Well I live in Alaska and love it. I have been widowed for 2 years and thought I needed to begin finding friends again. I am a small breeder of Bouvier Des Flandres and they are my life now. I show them as well as train them for other endeavors. I have done quite well now and have several dogs that have excelled in police work, as well as service dogs. I have a good relationship with the local womens prison and I give them my puppies at 10 weeks and they in turn let the girls care for them until they are trained in obedience before I move them on and do more specaialized train myself. Its a win win for everyone.

The weather is cold today but the dogs love it. They are outside right now and won’t come in. lol

I would like to thank everyone for the nice comments as well as the welcomes. Mucvh nicer then on some sites I have tried and its nice that everyone is a dog lover like I am.
Thanks Buzzie
If your friend shows I have probably seen him. I take real pride in my Bouviers. I try to keep them all in sho condition as much as I can. Even the nutured dog becuase they know when they look good just like we do. Its so funny how much easier they are to control and or mind when they look nice. I am really looking forward to Feb. I am doing a breeding between my female Cassie and an absolutely gorgous male from Canada who is out of N Americas number one Bouvier Breeder. I can’t wait to see what I get. Knowing me I will probably end up keeping them all. Just joking about that. lol
Beautiful dogs…
Thank you
Thank you for the nice words about the kiddo’s. They are very spoiled as you can probably tell from the pics. You know what they say. “Its a dogs Life” 
Thank you Cassie for the welcome. You know my number one dogs name is Cassie and spelled the same way. She’s in the photo album, the one thats with the judge when she won best of breed.
