NEWSFLASH!! CODY IS A NEW CHAMPION!!!

I just heard from MJ, Cody's handler in Canada.  At today's show:

Cody won WINNERS DOG and BEST OF WINNERS

for a

FIVE POINT MAJOR

meaning that Cody will forever more be known as

CHAMPION

SERENADE'S CODE OF HONOR!!!

MJ said he almost took BOB and the ONLY dog to beat him all day was BIS!  What a way to finish!

A heartfelt THANK YOU goes out to all the judges that recognised Cody's quality, to Cody's breeder, April Munger of Serenity Papillons, and most of all, to Cody's AMAZING handler and my very very dear friend, MJ Kurulak of Zenzero Papillons.  It wouldn't be possible without you all!

Hopefully we will have Cody's finishing photo soon, and of course, it will be posted immediately upon arrival!

WAY TO GO CODY-CO!!!

MJ and Cody Makin' Big Waves!!!

Cody had a marvelous show weekend in Osoyoos, BC this week!

On Friday, Cody decided to act out but still did well enough to earn himself Reserve under judge Butch MacDonald !

On Saturday, after a nice chat with MJ, Cody stole the heart of Chie Ejima- world famous breeder judge of Queen Bless Papillons in Japan- and took Winners Dog and BEST OF WINNERS for 2 more points!!  Chie told MJ she loved his outline and his elegance! 

What an honor!!

On Sunday, Cody and MJ do it again taking Winners Dog and BEST OF WINNERS AGAIN (2 more points!) under a notorious movement judge Wayne Thompson! 

Win Photo Coming Soon!!

We are so proud of these two!  Cody now has 6 points total towards his Canadian Championship, leaving only four more to go!  He will be entered for another three day show at the end of the month, and again the first of October.  Hoping he finished in the next shows, he would be specialed in the early October shows and then would return home to resume showing here!

Mr. Merlin comes home!! With a friend!!!

After a long vacation, Merlin is finally heading home, and he's not coming alone! 

Seranade is thrilled to welcome Iris, or I'm Little Ines vom Cavalierchen, to our home! 

Iris is the daughter of Multi Ch Queen Bless JP Tri Something and Multi Ch Alina Queen Star vom Cavalierchen, and she is arriving just in time to visit with our new superstar, Nemo!!  We are so excited about these puppies we can hardly stand it!

A HUGE Thank you goes out to Linda Cay of Caylo Papillons for the chance to own such a sweet little girl!

Updated photo coming soon!  Iris is much older now!

As with any Seranade litter, we are breeding for ourselves but not all puppies turn out for show homes.  We are starting our waiting list for pet homes now.  Serious show homes are welcome to inquire as we do occasionally place show prospects. 

*Show puppies are placed on a case by case basis with a co-ownership and a first generation contract.

Our New SUPERSTAR!!!

Over labor day weekend I was given the opportunity to fly to Germany to visit with my good friend Regina Keller of vom Salamandertal Papillons!  While there we had a marvelous visit and I was able to meet her wonderful family and gorgeous dogs..  I saw her most recent puppies and fell in love with Nala- Night Surprise vom Salamandertal.  She has the most beautiful face.. but Nala was not the reason for my trip!  The reason for my trip was Nala's father, Multi Int CH Scooby Dooby Doo Forussi, or "Nemo."

Nemo has been a favorite dog of mine for many years and I never dreamed I would ever get to meet him, let alone touch him, hug him, own him.  Nemo is the sweetest dog I believe I have ever met.  He is so laid back and calm and you can see the pure devotion in his eyes.  After seeing him in person it didnt take long to know he was coming home with me!

The trip back to the US went without trouble.  Our first stop was my parents home where Nemo now lives.  He is their pet to love and spoil and mine to show the world!  My Mom used to go to dog shows with me and even though she knew nothing about dog shows, she immediately noticed one thing:  Some people have "show dogs" and others have "babies."  The show dogs are taken in the ring, then back in the kennel.  All business.  But the babies are talked to, played with, loved!  Nemo may be a world renowned Multi Champion show dog- but don't be fooled- he's really our baby!

My heart goes out to my dear friend Regina for the opportunity to love such a beautiful boy.  I am ever grateful!

Lots of Changes!

Over the last few months there have been a lot of changes going on at Serenade!  Right off the bat you may notice the new design and the new spelling of our name..  You have probably also noticed you cant access all the pages of our website!

As of this moment we are anxiously awaiting a very, very special new arrival- a pivotal point for "Seranade." 

Check back with us on the evening of September 6th, 2010 when our website will be unlocked and our new arrival will be announced!

It's going to be BIG!!
