Thank You, from Hudson's Mom!

Prodigy's Content of Character (Hudson) Thank you to my friend, photographer Veronica Kelso, for all the beautiful photos she took of our sweet parti-colored Poodle boy, "Hudson". Not much news this week, have been glued to the television watching the horrible storm tragedies. Please donate via reputable organizations.  As I mentioned on a Facebook post....some can go, some can donate, all can pray.  So there is something all of us can do. Coming soon to Poodle Blogger - an interview with a well known breeder of both AKC and UKC solid color and parti-colored champions, as well as an article from a Poodle fancier who enjoys agility with her dogs. It has been lots of fun getting to know reputable Poodle breeders on Facebook Poodle groups since Hudson joined our family. I have spread myself a bit thin recently with too many writing projects at once, but I promise to have something interesting for Poodle bloggers to read soon!  Also, I confess, training Mr. ...

Jitka Vlasáková with Poodles shown in Prague, photo courtesy of Millano Photo. When I saw this gorgeous photo, all I could say was "wow"!  Rarely in this country do we have shows where there would be this many "dogs of multi-colors" entered, plus I was impressed that all of them posed so nicely for the photo!   There is one solid colored boy in the back, who happens to be parti-factored (his genes allow him to produce parti-colored Poodles) and he was bred by a well known Poodle breeder in the US, Kathy Esio-King of Jacknic Poodles. 11:11am Adéla Hlavatá , one of my Facebook friends sent me this photo to share on the Poodle blog,  along with the following information about the dogs in the photo: In the middle of the Poodles is Jitka  Vlasáková, who owns the lovely female dog sitting in front of her (Nelly) and Jitka's dog "Jack" is sitting beside Nelly.  Adéla  says the two females on the left are Infinity and Haky, who are Adela's o...

My boy Hudson and the best birthday presents ever...

Image
Hudson has now been here at our home approximately a month, but it took this sweet boy only a few days to totally worm his way into my family's heart! My birthday present from my husband this year was paying the expenses for me to go to a dog show weekend where Hudson's breeder flew in and showed him, then this lovely fellow went home with us. It was an extra special weekend not just due to getting to meet his breeder in person but also some good friends of ours, the Kelso family whom we have known for over 15 years, came to the dog show on Saturday to visit. Prodigy's Content of Character "Hudson" Co-owned by Melanie Schlaginhaufen & breeder Heather Bryan of Prodigy Poodles Nest to the wonderful time spent with friends, perhaps the most special birthday present I received was a photo shoot of Hudson by my friend Veronica Kelso.  The one above is one of my favorites! If you enjoy seeing photos of Poodles (of all colors and varieties) and reading ...
