Welcome to Pfabulus Show Dogs!
Welcome to our home page. Keep checking back as I'm working on
this intermittently. Our household consists of a handful of
Bichons and Havanese.
We first started in dogs, it was June 1990. Our
first Bichon was purchased this month using money from
our wedding. We picked her up (Crystal) and
instantly got hooked on dogs. We started showing
the fall of 1990 and we were lost into the dog show
world.
Along with the dogs, we have added a horse to our group of animals. We purchased a paint horse in April 2008 for the kids' 4H project. We've had our ups and downs these past few months, but everything seems to be going smoothly. It is trued that it can take a few months for a horse and the rider(s) to truly click. We have now experienced this. Hopefully we will get a horse trailer in 2009 that will allow us more flexibility to attend horse shows throughout the summer months.
We are happy to announce that Kirsten qualified for Eukanuba in 2009 in Junior Showmanship with 5 wins in Open Junior, along with 1 Best Junior Award. This is even with a broken arm that took her out of action from April 12th thru mid June. And, her Juniors dog had puppies the end of June so she was out of action until the end of August.
MiKayla received 1 first place win and a Best Junior in Show award, at the Gateway Toy Dog Fanciers show in February 2008. This is after driving on black ice from Des Moines all the way to the Missouri-Iowa border on that Thursday night. A normal 6 hour drive took 10 hours. It was a white knuckle driving experience, one that I don't want to experience again for a long time. All in all, it has been an amazing year. More…
Where we are located:
We live in extreme Northwest Polk County Iowa (i.e. Dallas County is only 3 1/2 blocks from our house). We live in a smaller rural community with easy access to the Des Moines, Iowa metro area.
