First off: Beth's birthday. I stood in line to get her an iPhone for six hours.
Which you'd think would be the biggest thing to report, right? A 'phone which is an iPod which browses the web and connects with our wi-fi network. And it is a lovely thing too.
But so is this...
Ladies and gentlemen, this is Jackpot. His name is Jackpot because we got him on 7-7-'07. His full name is Corgard Lucky Sevens (three sevens, lucky sevens, jackpot) but we call him Jack for short. Oh, I think I mentioned all that in the last post. His mother's name is Roxy (Ch. Corgard Tribute To A Legacy) and his dad is Dundee (Ch. Anwyl Winds O Change). His mum's from a line of champions ... in a 2005 show another one of the family, Batteries Not Included, was the Best Adult In Match (the "Ch." in their names stands for "champion of breed").
His dad is owned by Annika Falk of Finland (Corcin kennel) and was bred by Robin and Bruce Robertson (Anwyl kennel) in New South Wales, Australia. Jack's dad's pedigree can be seen here, and you can see that Jack's great-great-great-great-grandparents are mainly from England. But he's from all over the place.
And he is one sweet puppy. Although he does like to pull at the bottom of my jeans. And my socks. And anything I'm wearing that moves...
