In Memory of Manny...

Our Miss Seraphina Blue's father, Tannenblick's Leading Man, "Manny", has gone to the bridge, at age 11. Sire of over thirty Michigan Leader Dogs for the Blind, beloved companion to Penny J, loved by all who knew him. Son of AmCanCH Tollhaus T-Ho Tuscany, TC; grandson of CH Ken-Delaine's Taylor Made, ROM. A beautiful and brave boy, rest in peace Manny.

"beauty-girl"
we love you serablue,
happy birthday to you!

step into my parlour...

said the spider to the fly! cash has got his mojo back...

whew, they are a pair...and we've all got spring fever!!!

april snow showers!

reflections of miss sera-blue...we decided that instead of being bummed-out by the spring snowstorm, we'd use it for inspiration. our girl will be seven years old in just a few months!

cash is recovering from his surgery...

...sera smiles and says, "now i have two...and you don't!" but seriously, please wish for a speedy recovery for our boy, he's been havin' a bit of a tuff time lately!
