Autumn got her registered name (Surprise Ending) because she was born several hours after we thought Roxy was finished whelping.  I came upstairs to find her in the pen all cleaned off and on top of everyone else. Roxy did a great job with her last puppy from her last litter!
Si and Linda saw Autumn at her first show at 6 months old, and recognized the quality in her. We couldn’t ask for a better home for her, and we believe, just possibly, that she has also lived up to their expectations. Autumn will be seen occasionally in the show rings.
