Jake, Riot and Chante have the BEST FRIENDS in the world!

Friends Forever
Chante, Kaya, Abby, Nico, Riot, Jake - May 2007

Teamwork
Riot, Nico, Jake, Chante

"Dalton" is my sister's dog. He is very proud of himself when he finds a ball to fetch.
He was a show dog prior to becoming a "high fashion model" in NYC.
Dalton's debut will be in the February 2008 volume of Rachel Ray's magazine.

"Kaya" the Princess is very proud to be the ONLY SPECIAL one in the play group to have a beautiful,
flowing tail. She is 1 qualifying run away from almost 10 agility titles.
Kaya and Jake are agility buddies and love to give each other kisses!

Blue . . . Nico Blue

The Boys Club
Riot, Nico, Jake

The newest member of the Sprague family and Chante's partner in crime.
She is so funny when she "moo's" and pretends to be a rare Florida Mountain Goat.

"BIG SID" or Sidney, is my Dad's best pal. Sidney is one of the nicest dogs you will ever meet.
He loves to just hang out with his family.
And he is giving herding lessons a try when we go up to work with Jake.
Big Sid's 1st Herding Lesson!

What a voice Scooby has (I am sure his neighbors think its lovely as well!)...
Scooby knows he is king of the dog world when he comes home to visit...
Jake loves to lay down so Scooter can jump on his head =)
"Scooter" the Singing Dachshund!

"Faith" A.K.A. "Fay Ray" or Mandolyn's Mercury Rising
is a daughter of Jake's sister Flirt (AKC CH Mandolyn Nickelodeon).
Fay LOVES to fetch and play with her Uncle Jake. We DEFINATELY do not get to see her nearly
as much as we would like (Hint Hint Mommy Robin)...
Jake says woof woof (dog speak for ... I LOVE YOU FAY FAY)!
