It takes a village to breed
quality dogs :)
I have been gifted with great
friends who I know and trust. I have also been blessed with the
lessons of learning who I cannot/would not trust ;) Those lessons are
just as valuable... if not more!
So this page is dedicated
to those who have helped me along the way. I have co bred/co
owned/bought/sold/traded you name it with these folks and I would do it again!

I am a blessed, blessed girl because I hit the jackpot
when I married this guy... he had no idea what he was in store for or
what he started when he gifted me my first Pom, Zuzu. :) Brent is my
rock. He is my best friend, my partner and a loving father to our children.
He is supportive of me but still makes sure I don't "lose my head" which is
easy to do in dogs... I co own all Gemini Poms with him as he has become
the unpaid kennel help and handler. |

Christy and I co own several dogs-GnBC Poms. We
travel to shows together, we bounce ideas off each other, we trade
puppies, we buy and sell together. This ride wouldn't be
the same without her. We have become the best of friends along the
way. I love her very much. She is a smart and warm woman and
I am lucky to have found her. |

Christy and I met Dorothy at our first dog show and our lives
were changed forever! :) She taught us about grooming, evaluating,
training and so much more. She shared her wonderful CH Tuffy with
me and I was able to produce CH Zoe, AKC Pt'd Nikki and UKC Grand CH
Bubba. She is a solid friend and we have come to love she and Neal
("Honey") dearly. |

You could not come across a more loyal and
compassionate friend than the one I have in Robin. She wears her
heart on her sleeve but beware anyone cross one of her friends because
she also has the heart of a lion. She has generously shared her
very special CH Danny with me over the years where I was able to produce
some of the prettiest pups ever-CH Souvy, Belle, DJ, Ms. Dani and now
Suki. My first show litter was because of CH Danny who has become
one of my "founding fathers" all thanks to Robin. |

Michelle is my best friend. We met when our sons
were toddlers the day I moved in next door to her... we have been
"neighbors" every since. When I got started showing Poms, she was there.
And I got her hooked! LOL We are family. We raise our kids
together (she is Aunt Shelle and I am Auntie Trish), we holiday together
and we are there for each other in the best and worst of times. I
count on her and I love that she loves my children. |

Vicky is one of the toughest most honest people I have
ever met and I love her for it. She knows what she wants and she
goes for it. She is generous and determined and she is someone I
value more than I think she knows. She and I share a lot of the
same philosophies but can honestly respect each others differences.
I respect her very much. I love spending time with her-she is a kick in the pants!
Lucky for me, I was able to get from her my very nice girls, Chica and
Trace. And she is having great luck with her Gemini "Pom that laid
the golden puppies", Piper and then her CH Souvy puppies. We
also co-own the lovley Gin n Tonic and also our handsome devil, Jan
Shar's A Real Barn Burner. |

I have been so blessed to know this woman. She
is a wealth of knowledge with years of breeding and showing experienced
she gained first in Mal's and now with Poms. She has become a very
dear friend and I enjoy her very much. She is kind and generous,
thoughtful and devoted to her friends. I am lucky to be counted
among them. :) |

This special lady has a "Pied Piper's touch" with
dogs... they love her! She handled CH Souvy to the top 20 and has
pointed or finished several dogs for Christy and I. I value her
opinion and ask her to go over my hopefuls :) She is kind and wise and
highly commendatory with several CH's to her credit in several breeds.
She and her husband Bill are very precious to me. |

Tessa and David... these 2 are great! :) They started
in Eskies and then moved "down" LOL to Poms. Now they have
grandpuppies and great grandpuppies of mine. I am thrilled to see
how well they are doing and I am even more pleased to count them as
friends. I made a wonderful trade of a Belle baby for one of their
b&t Bubba grandpuppies. Tessa is a warm and loving woman and her
husband David... is a goofball! heehee and I get the fun of hanging out
with him most of the week. we work together... and laugh A LOT.
These are 2 true friends. |

Naomi first let me use her very handsome CH Snoball
with Sakari where I made Ava and Snowy (sadly he passed while at "a
friend's"
house) and then I was given a generous lease on her CH Sno daughter,
Tymme where I made (multi continental) CH Oren, Teeny, Keri and Mandy. :)
We have plans for upcoming leases/trades and I see more CH Sno puppies
in our future! She is a wonderful friend with some very pretty
pups. I enjoy her a lot. |

Darlys is a force to be reckoned with! LOL You would
have to know her to understand. I could sit for hours to hear her
stories and to have her share some of her years of wisdom. She is
a great cool... she is well known by our specialty go'ers for her yummy
turkey. There is a special place in my heart for Darlys. She
can sometimes come off as hard but I think she does that to test "new"
people... she has seen so many come and go. She is fun to be with. |

Diana is a wealth of K-9 care information and I love
how important it is to her that her dogs be tested for everything they
can be tested for. She is honest and we share a love of the "non
color" Poms! :) We have traded stud services and I love what she
is doing in her breeding program. |

Shelley will be the first to admit she is an "oddball"
:) I use the words as a term of endearment after many hours on the phone
with her! And she is dogged in her pursuit of the perfect Pom.
She is so funny-she has the "gotta have it" temperament when it comes to
seeing a new color-she will want to make it in quality and goes after
her goal. I was able to lease a very nice brood-Chipper-from her
and I also traded one of my cute tiny b&t Belle sons for her sweet and
pretty, Lydia. |
