Wright's Triumphant Tiger Eye at Pickwick

AKC #TS52136201   DOB: 7/17/2021
Sire: AKC GCHS CH Shorline's Carmel Apple With Nuts "Reese" - TS32269003; Dam: AKC GCH CH Wright's N' Double D's Royal Triumphant Gem - TS38703203
We welcomed this gorgeous show boy, bred by AKC Breeder of Merit Linda Wright (Wright Pugs) and Carol Zmuda (Triumphant Pugs) to Alabama from Michigan in 2021. Since then he has gone on to finish his AKC championship, passed all of his genetic health screening tests with flying colors, and been an absolute blessing to our grumble. He has been a remarkable sire now, producing some of the most gorgeous pug puppies you have ever seen, with our Poldark Litter (with Lilibeth, CH Pickwick's Show the World How to Smile), Coffeehouse Litter (with Marie Claire, Pickwick's Cotton Candy in the Sky, CGC, RN, RI, and half-brother to Biggie pug who won Westminster), and Southern Belle Litter (with Princess Buttercup, Pickwick's Forever is Composed of Nows).
​
He is the sweetest pug, with a clear, light coat which is as soft as mink, beautiful face, level top line, neck, leg under him, gorgeous double curl ... (well, we could go on all day) .... so it is no wonder it was SO EASY to finish his championship (out of the puppy class mind you). Parker has FUN in this world and his enthusiasm is contagious! 

We owe a tremendous thanks to Harry Bennett who showed Parker for us many times, and finished his championship (for the first time) with a Best of Breed in Perry and Winners. All out of Puppy Class ;)
Here is Parker at his first official show in Tunica, MS where his first win was a 5 point major!
And here is Parker at his 2nd official show in Lawrenceville, Georgia, winning Winners Dog and Best of Winners out of the 6-9 Puppy Class!
Parker's trip to Maryland, New York, and Vermont to finish his Championship (for a 2nd time, due to clerical errors). From tasting his first ice cream, to his first visit to an ocean/beach, hiking in the Adirondacks to see his first waterfall, celebrating his 1st birthday in a hotel room in Vermont, to seeing his (and Amy'!) first black bear, it was a very adventurous trip!
Here is the black bear Amy and Parker encountered in Vermont during his early AM potty outside. The bear was literally yards away from us as it retreated into the woods. (Amy didn't have her glasses on lol).

And here is Parker's Maternal Grandsire . . .
Here are some photos from Parker's 1st night with us after traveling all the way back from the Pug Dog Club of America's nationals in Chicago (and from Michigan before that!) to Alabama! He was tired but you can still see what a sweet and special boy he is!
