Houston rocks the ring!!!

At just 3 months of age, Houston (Sydney x Jimmy Choo) entered the baby puppy class at the EKKOC show two weeks ago.  As you can see, he is a 'lil big dog' -- nice bold confident and happy go-lucky temperament!!  Watch for Houston and some fellow Koping Weimaraners at the Alberta Kennel Club show over the long weekend.

Happy Bday 'honorary' Weim GG!!

GG turns 4 on Sunday, she will be spending her weekend running with the Weimaraners and heading to the lake for a swim with them too.

Kamp Koping has a new visitor

Noire is visiting from Saskatchewan to learn some Rally obedience moves.  As you can see from the pictures she is Jimmy Choo's personal play toy (or maybe vice versa!)   The Koping girls like her as she smells like very nice hair product ;-)
Noire is a Bearded Collie and has a very 'Tigger-like' personality.  

Mackenzie-girl is VERY well loved by the Champ family

And especially adored by her 'sister' Britney as you see in the pictures.  Mackenzie is from the Scout x Aleck litter and they will be turning 10 this coming September.

Mackenzie and the rest of the Champ family have also welcomed a new addition -- Jimi (Jazz x True) puppy.

                                                    Ashley has found a new walking partner!

Another fabulous weekend for True

Am Ch MBIS, BISS, BPIS Can Ch Koping Win'Weim Say It's True (Sydney x Goose)!!!

True showed on Friday and Saturday at the EKKOC show and came home with a Group 1st and Group 2 (thank you judges Rosemary Kemp & Jim Reynolds!). We are all so very pleased with True being recognized in a very strong Sporting group. Below is a candid picture taken while in the Sporting group ring.

"letter from Zack"

Dear Grandma Pat, sorry I haven't written but I've been extremely busy at Camp Chung.

 Every weekday when the kids go for swimming lessons I do a 45min  romp through the forest in Pacific Spirit Regional  Park.  After I get a 2hr nap before the kids head to  gymnastics.  That's my favourite time because now I get to go swimming at  McDonald Beach in Richmond. It's been hovering around  25ºC
 the last two weeks and I don't like the heat. I LIVE  to  retrieve and can swim for an hour straight but my Dad keeps  making me take breaks which is so annoying. He's also  keeping an eye out as seals have been found on the Fraser River. On the weekends rain or shine we go hiking,  biking  or swimming again, did I mention I live to retrieve anything  you  throw in the water?

 I'm still 27" tall and hover between 85-90lbs. I still  can  sleep 18hrs a day and only get up for meals but when I'm  outside  I only have one speed - full on!

 Give Taylor a kiss and happy belated birthday from me.

 Dad said we might come visit you this summer but he's got to  teach > me how to sit in a canoe before we head to the Bow River.

Love Zack
