Emmitt was a special puppy from the start. He was the last puppy born and his birth took place outside in the middle of a Michigan winter. Well the surprises didn't stop there as my little liver boy slowly decided he wanted to have tan markings! As Emmitt grew so did his personality. He was graded as the most out-going pup in the litter and was Kristy's pick boy to send out to Lisa in Rhode Island. He continues to maintain his out-going, never met a stranger attitude.

Emmitt and his Mom Lisa have been working hard at both conformation and obedience training since Emmitt was a pup. Emmitt has been showing since he was 6 months old and like all pups he just needed time to grow up. In the spring of 2008 at just over a 1year old Emmitt started to come into his own. In 3 short months Emmitt was award 3 majors and finished his Championship with ease. We are very proud of Emmitt and his owner-handler Lisa, who has shown Emmitt to all his wins. We look forward to seeing what other great accomplishments this team will surely have in years to come.

Emmitt still makes it out to the show ring every now and than. As he still needs a wee bit more time to grow up Emmitt is shown selectively as special. However he is concentrating and working hard on his new sport. Agility! Emmitt and Lisa have recently started training in agility and Emmitt is picking up on the training rather quickly. Lisa reports that Emmitt is a natural on agility course and she is looking forward to competing with him in the future.
