We are a small show
kennel located near Richland, WA striving to produce Papillons who excel in type, temperament, movement, and health.
Come inside to learn more about our dogs. We have had much success in the show ring since our beginnings in Papillons
in 1995. Our first Phalenes were imported in 1998, and were featured on Animal Planet's "Breed All About It".
Since
2000 when we started breeding Papillons and Phalenes, 17 dogs have attained their Championships. 14 of those dogs
are homebred, and 3 of those achieved Toy Group placements.
We are very excited
at the success of all our dogs, including Akai's A Thorn Among Roses, VCD2. That means he's a Versatile Companion Dog with
advanced titles, and U-CDX Akai's White Water Running CD, Can CD, NA, NAJ, CGC. She will be working on her tracking title
next. Another youngster by the name of Luca is starting his obedience training and doing very well according to
his owner.
We also have a 9 year old retired girl who earned her CD
and Rally Novice titles. Harry, a retired Phalene is now learning agility with his new owner in the Seattle area!
I'm a current member
of the Papillon Club of America. My past affiliations have been: Lone Star Akita Club (past secretary), Rocky
Mountain Akita Club, Buckhorn Valley Kennel Club, and Papillon Association of Puget Sound. I have judged
the Sweepstakes classes for the Papillon Club of Canada's National Specialty in 2003, as well as the sanctioned AKC 'B' Match
for the Papillon Club of Northern California.
Spring 2009
March continued to be a winning month for us as we went Winner's Bitch both days at the
Seattle shows. Max once again came through with Winner's Dog on Sunday! These wins gave Shimmer (Akai's
Dancing in the Moonlight) and Max (Clairus Akai Dressed to the Max) their 3rd major pointed wins. It shouldn't
be long now before both can put the coveted CH. in front of their names.

At the 2008 Papillon Club of America's National Specialty show, we earned a Second Place ribbon in
the 9-12 month bitch class. I never bring more than a few dogs to the National Specialty, so I'm extremely
proud that I have always placed in the ribbons with whatever dog or dogs I bring to the show.
