Elsa here with Kal 1/03/08
Did I mention she is a great watch dog? She is endlessly patrolling the property, looking for anything out of place or just the right opportunity to play in the creek or chase deer to the propertys edge.

This is my favorite photo of Elsa here with Allie
No one loves the snow more than Elsa.
And all along we thought the deer where the ones eating the apple trees!
Elsa makes me want to pick up a camera! We won our first photo contest with this shot.

This photo is so much like our Oliver!

Java & Ridgie
Elsa's mom Java was visiting last weekend and loved playing with Elsa's puppies.

Elsa reminds me so much of her father in this photo.
Elsa supervising the cutting of fire wood.
She still looks like that adorable puppy.
Elsa with dad Ridgie and pal Emma. This just moments before she dove out of the van and tried to join the Besenjis on the field. I had to dive on her just inches away from the course.
Elsa resting up for her coursing "debut."
This is Elsa moments before she made a break for the race course. Besenji's here I came!
Elsa gets a try at a short practice at the end of her big day watching the coursing!
We knew she was born to run after her first day watching.
Elsa getting her JC title. This girl was born to race!
This is Elsa's JC Coursing Certificate October 2006
This picture tells the story of a lion hunter and her "cat". KC. Look for more info about the DOG/ CAT on his page.
Since she was very little Elsa always did this turn of the head.
Elsa at her first show in Cleveland. She is 6 months old here.
Elsa's puppy Madi took her first points at the same Cleveland show 12/13/2008 and 12/14/2008!
Elsa at her first show in Cleveland the day she turned 6 months old. She was so funny getting her picture taken. She had the photographer in stiches!
Elsa received this (CGC) Canine Good Citizen award in September 2006
Elsa's cuddle buddie is Reggie. They are inseperable! I can't wait to see him with her pups. He loves it when puppies come for boarding. Look for his anticks on the "Photo" page. Clearly our entertainer. When Elsa was 14 weeks old she thought it would be fun to yank out the Invisible Fence flags and chase Reggie with them! Nothing is funnier than that sight! This big boy being chased by this puppy running for his life and screeming like a woman! Till this day he has a hard time Lure Course racing, being that they use white bags that resemble Invisible Fence flags.
The Liver Nose
She had to be the cutiest puppy ever!
Elsa's OFA HIP Certificate with a GOOD rating.
OFA Elbow test NORMAL.
OFA Throid test results NORMAL. If you would like to have a copy of any test results for Elsa sent to you please contact us on our "contact page".
Elsa with her blaze scarf. We put them on all the dogs during hunting season. We love Invisible Fence, the dogs are safe and happy.
Elsa is great with kids.
