Int. Ch. U-Ch. Romyldale Apple of My Eye

Sired by Peri out of Secret.

These are impromptu (ungroomed) photos my niece, Roslyn King, took in the backyard.

A word of explanation about Apple's name....I had nearly convinced myself that Secret was not in fact pregnant so took her to my vet for an xray. Dr. Scott carried the xray into the exam room looking concerned and said there was a problem......one puppy, one VERY large puppy. He recommended an elective c section. A c-section hadn't figured in my budget plan so with only a tiny qualm I sacrificed my new computer fund. Turns out Apple weighed a whopping 7.5 oz, not an outrageous size for a sheltie puppy, but I am happy she is whole and healthy and don't begrudge her my new computer (much). We've had fun with her name, co breeder Pam Moore came up with the euphemism of "Apple juice" for puppy pee. I've also had fun thinking up Apple names for future offspring (if Apple should continue to look promising). Here are a few ideas.....Newton's Apple, call name Isaac; An Apple a Day, call name Doc and Apple Blossom Time, Applejack....any other suggestions?

Apple made her ring debut at the SSCGD specialty show under Malcolm Hart. All of my more mature dogs had dropped coat so Apple and I went along for experience and to support the club. Miss Apple showed with confidence, making the most of her 13 1/2 inches.

Pam took Apple with her to the Wapakoneta shows and they came back with 95 pts toward Apple's U-Ch title! And what did Pam attribute their success to? Apple's 'tude! Here is baby Apple at 3 weeks of age.

Apple is growing, here are photos at 5 weeks of age.
