achilles on the table 

achilles and cindy, his breeder & handler. 

This was my first Christmas with my new family. I wasn't too happy about my outfit. Could you tell? 

you don't want to fight w/ achilles 

check out the pig ear!  

Some more of achilles' brothers and sisters. 

These guys are 2 of achilles' litter mates - the on on the right is porscha. 

this is achilles after his whiskers were shaved - he's now ready for his show next week! 

Practice for the show next weekend!

achilles got back from the breeder's place on saturday. he was given a pretty good grooming, his hair was trimmed and his whiskers, ears and underside were shaved. you can see the difference in the pictures. he spent all day saturday w/ his brothers and sisters - i'm sure he had a good time. we're supposed to go to a "puppy match" tonight - it's a practice show for his first show this coming weekend. we'll see how he does!

check me out - this is the first picture of me before my mom & dad picked me up. like my ears? 

what are you looking at?

check out the paper that is stuck to my flaps. 

the night before his first day of practice for his first dog show

today achilles accompanied mom & dad to the dentist. he was cooped up in the car all day, but as usual, he didn't complain - he slept most of the time, and when he wasn't sleeping, he was staring out the window. when achilles finally got home, he did the usual, he ran around the house and played w/ his toys. tomorrow's his first day of practice for his first show which will be on 1/22/05 in ventura. his brother jag is already whipping-ass in shows, now it's achilles turn. we'll see what happens...
