Meet "Annie", Zobear's American Idol. She traveled back with us all the way from Scotland September, 2018 to join us in America. Bringing together wonderful European lines of Tangetoppen and Zobear, Annie has the most amazing temperament of any pug we have ever owned. An apricot girl with a stunning face and a glorious smile on the inside and out. Welcome to America, Annie!
February 2, 2020, Annie & Lilly had fun showing their younger "sisters", Marie Claire and Stella, how to navigate a hotel room! No love at the Atlanta dog show but, then again, they were competing against 37 pugs! A huge entry. They did have fun, though … especially romping around this nice hotel room!
Annie did SO well at her 1st match with us at the Pug Dog Club of America National specialty in Indianapolis. She moved out beautifully, held her stack, and was enjoying every second! She is so happy in the show ring and she has one of the most delightful temperaments of any pug we've ever owned! Here are some shots from the Nationals:
On the down and back, she went right up to the judge and smiled. What a natural show girl!!
With just days after flying from Scotland, still adjusting to her new family, this show stopper nailed her first show in America AND had a blast as well. What fun she is in the ring!
Annie wins Winners Bitch and a 3 point major under judge Judy Webb. Thank you Kamiron for your exceptional handling skills both inside and outside the ring!
Annie had fun at Mrs. Kamiron’s house before leaving for the Franklin show!
