Thank you, Judge Judy Webb for this BOB honor.

Special thank you to Jillian & Lisa for allowing Kismet to join our family. She retrieves, plays tug, gets along with all dogs, is much fussed over by every human she meets, and is pretty much running our household at this time and training us well. She is is absolutely lovely in every regard. She's a spitfire of energy, very self assured, and seem to have quite the prey drive for livestock. Kismet was instinct tested at 6 months of age by Steve on knee-knocking fetching sheep and she passed beautifully. She groups, takes both flanks although favors the away-to-me side right now, and really doesn't want to quit working:) And, wow, can this bitch move! She's gorgeous inside and out! Picture of her famous sire and her lovely dam are at the end of this webpage.

WB/BOW - SBJ Sheila Polk - ASANM 2/27/10

She fits into our kennel quite nicely - at a very young age, she appeared to know she's arrived at a working kennel.

Spring 2010 Ms. Kismet will get to try working some knee-knocking fetcher sheep. I think she's already dreaming about doing it. This picture was taken January 2010.

Six month old Kismet coming to the camera. She loves toys, playing in snow, catching snowballs, harrassing the ducks on the fenceline, jumping in laps for hugs, playing with Karma and Hanky on the ranch, chasing birds, rabbits, and living life to the fullest. She is clean coming and going with lovely sidegait.
