JONI

CH. EIRE'S EVERY LITTLE THING
2/28/1998
OFA Excellent

Joni is the daughter of John and Abbey. She inherited her father's
willingness and stamina combined with her mother's independent
determination.
Joni shared points during her championship run with her sister Sarah (Ch.
Eight Days a Week) with both finishing quickly.

Joni was a sociable addition to the Eire pack, greeting visitors cheerfully
and loved to sit on the sofa visiting and cuddling with everybody.

Joni had two litters, one in 1/10/2002 with Valor (Ch. Beaufield's Valiant
Madcaps UD JH) and one with Ryker (Ch. Beaufield Make It So) in 6/7/03. Ch.
Eire's Incredible Storm (Storm) is her championship son from the first
litter. All her children seem to have inherited her sweet loving temperament
and never-ending wagging tail.

In 2004 Joni retired to live with Maureen Edgar in Toronto, Canada. She
loves being the only dog with walks and cuddling on demand. We often get
updates of her exploits via email and we are always happy to hear how well
she is doing.

OFA Excellent
Thyroid, CERF

Gracie is the only daughter of Bonny. She was born talking and moving fast and hasn't stopped since.
As a pup Gracie lived with a couple of local women but was returned as an adult because her energy level was just to much for them. She is a strong, well built, beautifully coated girl. She is very energetic and independent, loves to organize her own space and games. She thinks she should be boss of the world but that probably isn't going to happen.

Gracie began her championship run while in heat, and was bred the day she got her 2nd major. She completed her Ch. 6 weeks after having her first litter.
The very day she that her litter she wanted to go out with the rest of the dogs and run for balls. She jumped over the xpen and the 4' kitchen gate and had to physically restrained at the door.
Gracie has had two litters, one of 3 pups with Connor (Ch. Eire's Bond'james Ernesthill CD JH CGC) and one of 6 with George (Ch. Eire's Guitar Gently Weeps CD CGC). She has produced 3 champions from these litters.
- Ch. Eire's Here There N' Everywhere (Pogo)
- Ch. Eire's High In the Sky (Lucy)
- Ch. Eire's Justice Sinbad (Jude)
making her an IWSCA Top Producer.

Gracie has moved to her 'retirement' home with Sally Devine in Jamestown.
She is living the dream of every IWS, her own home with bumper throwing and
swimming on command. She still visits us and we are always happy to see her
cheerful face.

Three years ago we were happy to welcome Morgan to our busy Waterdogs Farm. Morgan was born and spent the first 6 years of his life showing and being
specialed by Tara Darling-Lyon, his breeder and co-owner. He amassed many
significant breed ring awards during that time. He earned his Rally Novice
title since he has been with us and fathered a litter with Penny. Morgan is now retired and enjoying life as a family dog.

Emmylou was born in Minnesota to the Realta kennel. Her mother, Ch. Madcaps
Rising Star Stella CDX MH was the first female IWS to earn an AKC Master
Hunter title. Her father, QAA Wh'stops Saracen Highlander MH, was also one
of the few IWS with a AKC Master Hunter title, and successfully competed in
other hunt venues for much of his life.
Emmylou was a darling pup and fit into the household right away. She and
Penny are close to the same age and became fast friends. As they got older
they swapped points in the show ring and played bumper tag in the back yard. Altho Em didn't compete in hunt trials, she has passed her illustrious duck
sniffing genes onto her kids. Emmylou had one litter, the "M" pups, with
Connor (CH. Eire's Bond'james Ernesthill CD JH CGC). These include Murph
(Eire's Murphee Mullownee MH) who has already earned his MH and qualified
for the Masters Invitational, and Sophie (Eire's Maybe I'm Amazed JH) who
has earned her Canadian JH and working towards her obedience and Rally
titles in both countires.
Emmylou completed her Rally Novice title at Stockon, NY in June, 2007. She
finished with a splash earning a Fourth Place in her class. We were
delighted to see Em in good health and spirits during this trial as she had
experienced some serious health issues earlier in 2007. She is fully
recovered and now spending her retirement studying towards her advance
degrees in pillow fluffing and teddy bear maintenance.
