February 23, 2009 was our lucky day. We received an email from Doberman Rescue of the Triad www.doberman-rescue.com about Chloe, a young female needing a forever home. The fateful words, "Photos Attached", inspired us to drive to North Carolina immediately and adopt her. She is now registered with the American Kennel Club as Princess Chloe of Carolina. In June 2009, we entered our first Rally Obedience competition and scored a perfect score of 100 the first day and 99 the second day. We brought home blue ribbons from both trials! |

Mousse (left), CoCo (right), and Rebecca participated in a Canine Fashion Show to benefit the local animal shelter. Here we are showing off our Burberry outfits. |
Mousse au Chocolat ("Mousse") joined our family from Doberman Rescue of the Triad ( www.doberman-rescue.com) in August 2006. She has boundless puppy energy and is extremely affectionate. We are training in agility as well as both rally and formal obedience. After turning one year old, Mousse won her Rally Novice Obedience title in Greenville, SC in February 2007. She has also earned her Canine Good Citizen certificate. What a star! |

CoCo Chienel ("CoCo") earned her CD (AKC) and CDX (ASCA) in formal obedience. She retired from the show ring and spent her days as senior dog romping on the beach and training Mousse. She went to heaven July 2008. |
Marigot joined our family in 1991 when we rescued her in the French West Indies where she was an orphaned puppy about 8 weeks old. She was the smartest and most sensitive dog we have ever known. She understood English, French and Spanish and could catch a frisbee in mid-air. She was cherished for almost 15 years and went to heaven on August 4, 2006. |
