Keeping track of what's new can be difficult! Our web site now features over 60 pages, including individual pages for more than 40 of our current and past dogs. Check here for information on what pages have been updated recently on the site as well as for the latest news.
September 3, 2010 -- New photos of the babies at 4 weeks.
August 22, 2010 -- Big congrats to Blossom Scott on finishing Moxi's US championship on Saturday in Nevada. She is now officially Am Ch Fwaggles Shake Yer Tailfeather. Moxi was co-bred by Carolyn Horowitz, who I know is as happy as we are for the California girls. Congrats as well to Jeff MacAulay & Ruth Sutton, whose TMT Loki appears to have found his true calling in life. After a morning of Tracking Dog practice with Loki's sister, Freya, they stopped at a local earthdog trial and put Loki in on a whim. He is apparently a natural and passed his Intro to Quarry with no problems at all. A, finally, congrats to Kirsti and Eirik Kahrs as our little Drew (X-Pected Dine Mite's Ever After) earned her very first point this weekend!
August 20, 2010 -- New photos of the babies at 2 weeks.
August 14, 2010 -- New photos of the babies at 1 week. Also added some new images to the Puppy Photos pages.
August 7, 2010 -- Big congratulations to Clara and T-Rex on his new title: Master Agility Dogs of Canada! Congrats as well to Karen and Hillary on two more Best of Breeds in California, a cut in the Group and for passing her Temperament Test! Not to be outdone, Moxi earned two more points toward her US championship. To top the weekend off, we welcomed 6 new babies out of Indy and Vanna -- view their photos at 1 day of age here!
July 28, 2010 -- New photos added of Moxi taking a Group 4th from the classes in California. Big congratulations to her owner-handler, Blossom Scott-Heim!
July 25, 2010 -- Best in Show #2 for Pixie as well, this time under Ms. Sandra Lex plus Group wins under Richard Paquette and Jacqueline Rusby -- check her photo page for pics. Two big 5-point majors for Moxi in California with her owner, Blossom Scott. The first was a Best of Opposite win over specials and the second was a Best of Breed over specials followed by a Group 4th! And another Best of Breed for Hillary in California. Check out the new page for our Norwegian import, Drew! Big thanks to her breeders, Kirsti and Eirik Kahrs, for entrusting her to us. Finally, we can confirm that Vanna is definitely pregnant! Check out info on our upcoming litter here.
June 27, 2010 -- Best in Show #2 for Vanna under Mr. Bud Haverstock followed by Reserve Best in Show under Mrs. Phyllis Pancel!

June 13, 2010 -- Lots going on here! Check out our Available Dogs page for photos of 7 1/2 month old Mayson who is looking for a new home and 15 month old Tiffany. We also added a video of one of Pixie's qualifying agility runs yesterday -- way to go Cindy and Pixie! Updated health information for several of the dogs. We have been doing thyroid and CERF's the past few weeks plus Vanna had her LP screening, so lots of new information. Also added a video of Vanna.
June 6, 2010 -- Check out info on our upcoming litter.
May 16, 2010 -- Vanna had a great weekend, earning two Groups 1sts, a Group 2nd and then a Best in Show under Mrs. Carmen Haller! We are so proud of how well she showed, as she was obviously having a great time which is the most important thing for us. Also received new photos of Gordy (Fwaggle's Tragically Hip) at 6 1/2 months. He still looks like a gangly baby but may be ready for shows by the Fall!
May 9, 2010 -- Big congratulations to T-Rex and Kaiden on their new performance titles. Kaiden began competing in flyball over the past few months and quickly earned his Flyball Excellent title. T-Rex continues to do well and has most recently added his CKC Agility Intermediate (AG.I.) title and Agility Intermediate Jumpers with Weave (AG.I.J.) title as well as earning one leg for Excellent Jumpers with Weaves. Way to go Kaiden and Darlene and T-Rex & Clara!
March 13, 2010 -- New photo of Hillary and of Vanna.
February 1, 2010 -- Big congratulations to Karen Cornell and Dianna Texter on finishing Hillary's US championship. She only needed one point, but apparently thought a 4 point major would do just as well! All told, Hillary finished with 17 points including 3 majors which included a 5 point major on the US National weekend, two major wins over Specials and an Amateur-Owner-Handled Group 3rd.
January 7, 2010 -- Well, the New Year is here and we are immersed in snow which, of course, the dogs despise. 2010 was a great year for us and we would like to offer our thanks and recognition to those with "Fwiggle Dogs" who were so busy this past year via our annual year in review. The babies are growing quickly and two have already left for wonderful new pet homes. Back at the ranch, the other three are busy terrorizing the cat, the toilet paper roll and our poor decorative topiaries (remind us again why we decorate?) while our adult dogs continue to deal with the upheaval of ongoing renovations. The end is in sight, though it is still a few weeks away! Congratulations go out to Dianna Texter and Karen Cornell for Hillary's recent 5-pt major, which she earned with a Best of Breed over Specials. Only one point to go!
December 20, 2009 -- New photos of the babies at 7 weeks. Check our Available Dogs page and be sure to email us if you were previously on our waiting list!
December 5, 2009 -- New photos of the babies at 5 weeks. Photo of Hillary taking Best of Breed in California from the Open class. I FINALLY put up photos of Freya, who is North America's first Tracking Dog titled TMT!
November 22, 2009 -- New photos of Vanna at the show and Blush moving. New photos of the babies at a little over 3 weeks.
November 17, 2009 -- New photos of the babies at a little over 2 weeks. They are getting cute now!!!!
November 15, 2009 -- Tiffany went to her first show this weekend. She was only entered one day and had a fabulous time hopping and jumping around the ring, picking up a breed win over Macy and a Group 3rd for a whopping 4 points. Not too bad for a baby. Our shows are now over for the year so she will be warming the couch while she waits for the show season to start up again next spring. Photos of the puppies will be updated soon. We did photos tonight, but both the camera and the puppies were uncooperative (or maybe it was the operator).
November 9, 2009 -- Big congratulations to Hillary, her owner-handler Dianna Texter and co-owner Karen Cornell on a great day in California. Hilly was awarded Best of Variety from the Open Class over two specials and went on to an Amateur-Owner-Handler Group 3rd under Mr. Chuck Winslow.
November 7, 2009 -- Photos of the new babies are up! Huge congratulations to Ruth Latham and Jeff MacAulay whose TMT Freya (Fwaggles Can't Eat Just One, TD) earned her Tracking Dog title last weekend. Freya is one of only a handful of Manchesters to earn this title in the U.S.! Congratulations also to Yan and Gracie Mowatt who recently took baby Blush home. We miss her terribly, but Blush will be pursuing a performance career and we are looking forward to seeing her actually behave!
October 24, 2009 -- New photos of Peyton and Pixie (I was running out of room on Pixie's page so added a photo album for her). Poor Daisy looks like she's about ready to explode, so we are hoping for puppies this week.
October 11, 2009 -- Happy Thanksgiving! We showed only one day this weekend and got a Group 1st on Macy before heading home to make banana splits, watch movies and build blanket forts with the kids (and, of course, the dogs). Somehow, both Mya and Blush ended up in the tub for a splash with Zach and Morgan this morning. Then Zach headed off to go sailing with Grandad, and Mo and Amanda stopped in for a manicure before hitting the Maritime Fall Fair and the midway. Whew, what a day! While we were there we heard that one of the puppies we bred, Bailey, did an awesome job performing at the fair in a Superdogs-themed show! Wendy stayed home to bake pies and took a call from Washington where it looks like Peyton had a good weekend, picking up three more points towards her American championship. We're crossing our fingers we'll make it out to the first practice lure coursing available in our area tomorrow before we sit down for turkey tomorrow night. Weekends like this one remind us that we are very blessed and have a lot to be thankful for. Best wishes to all for a good holiday!
October 4, 2009 -- We are extremely proud to announce that Indy earned his CKC Agility Jumpers with Weaves title this weekend at age seven! Indy began his agility training when he was very young with Wendy but we gave it up over the years as he was campaigned in conformation. We are extremely grateful to Cindy MacKeen for her work in "reminding" Indy of just how much he loves Agility. Cindy and her daughter Felicia have been very devoted to helping Indy finish his title, picking him up at our house for classes for weeks on end and taking him to many Glooscap Hotdogs practice and exhibition events. Without Cindy's work, we can guarantee he would never have reached his potential. Thanks, Cindy! Amazingly, this is Indy's third new title this year, proving you can definitely teach and older dog new tricks...
September 27, 2009 -- We were very pleased to finish two of our girls this weekend. Blush finished on Saturday under Mr. Bob Whitney, making her the second champion out of Sydney and Shari Robinson's first litter in as many weeks. Congratulations girls! Vanna finished on Sunday by taking Best of Breed over our Special and a Group 4th -- she was so happy and excited to be in the group, it really was a lot of fun showing her. Macy is fresh back from B.C. and this was her very first weekend out with us, so it took a couple of trips into the ring to figure out exactly how she likes things done (she is, after all, the boss!), but everything came together at the last show in the form of a Best in Show. Big congratulations to her co-owner Donna Young and to her co-breeder, Jim Burrows who (along with Pat Mackesey) so graciously allowed us to co-own and love Macy's parents, Rumour and Indy.
September 21, 2009 -- Congratulations go out to Sydney and Shari Robinson on the first champion out of their first litter, Keepsake Fwaggle Just My Style. Levi beat her sisters to the punch as they both need only a single point to finish. Congratulations also go to Scott & Annamieke Price on Peyton's debut in Washington. In two weekends of showing she has earned 7 points including a major. Updated photos for Pixie and Tiffany as well as information on our two Fall litters.
September 8, 2009 -- Well, you could knock us over with a feather, but after months of waiting we finally received a photo of Peyton. She looks a lot like her Mom, though happily in a slightly smaller package. Congratulations to Cindy MacKeen who handled Pixie to a Group 4th in a big Toy Group on the weekend as well. In addition to another group placement for Pixie with Amanda handling, we showed Blush and Vanna one day and ended the weekend with both needing only a single point to finish (aaargh!!!). And Macy will be winging her way back to Nova Scotia this week after a successful weekend in BC. She will spend the few shows left on the Maritime circuit with us while her other mother, Joy, takes a few well deserved months off of the show scene. We expect that her rankings will fall as the year goes on as a result of the limited number of shows we attend, however we are very proud to say that at the end of her campaign she is currently #6 Toy Dog in Canada.
September 5, 2009 -- Big congratulations to Clara Theiss and T-Rex on his new agility and flyball titles. They are certainly making fast progress! Check out his page for a video of this pair at work. New photos of Pixie added. We were very proud of her August Group 1st win in New Brunswick under Mr. Jim Reynolds who recently judged the American Manchester Terrier Club National. At the same series of shows, Miss Blush earned 7 points towards her championship (including a Group 3rd and several Best Puppy in Group wins) and Vanna picked up a few more, putting both very close to earning their championships after only two weekends out this year.
July 19, 2009 -- New photos of Pixie, Tiffany, Blush and Vanna. Congrats to Macy for two more Reserve Best In Shows under Mr. Martin Doherty and Mr. Charles Cyopik.
July 14, 2009 -- Big congratulations to Cindy McKeen on Pixie's Best In Show from the open class on Saturday under Mr. Jack Ireland. She followed that up with a Group 1st under Mrs. Terry Carter and a Group 3rd under Mr. Chris Neilson. She certainly finished her championship with a bang! Vanna earned two more points towards her championship and Miss Blush earned her first two points at her very first show where she had a fabulous time. Hopefully we'll have pictures of these three from the weekend at some point. Added new photos of Mia and Levi as well who were posing beautifully despite the sprinkles of rain and the swarms of mosquitos in PEI. We were extremely proud to see our baby boy Indy (okay, okay, he's 7) earn his Canine Good Neighbour title on Sunday. This qualified him for his Canadian Grand Championship (GCh) and we believe he may be the first Grand Champion Toy Manchester in Canada. Also added a new photo of Hillary.
July 5, 2009 -- Congratulations again to the Robinsons. Their puppies have been in two days of shows each now. Mia picked up Best of Breed and a Group 2nd for 5 points yesterday and Levi took two Best Puppy in Groups and a Group 4th today, bringing her points total to 5 as well. Congratulations also go out to Jerri Hobbes who took a big Winners Bitch win (SMT) with Fwaggles Mixed Blessings on the last day of the American Manchester Terrier National Specialty weekend in Oklahoma. "Hillary's" name has turned out to be quite fitting!
June 21, 2009 -- Congratulations to Sydney Robinson on handling her puppy Levi to Best Bred-by-Exhibitor in the Toy group at Levi's very first show! Also congrats to Joy and Macy on their Best In Specialty yesterday under Toy specialist Mr. Michael Hill at the Vancouver Island Toy Dog Club show!
June 6, 2009 -- New photos of Mia and Levi.
May 31, 2009 -- New photos of Vanna, Blush and our new additions, Daisy and Tiffany. Big congratulations to Shari and Sydney Robinson -- Sydney showed their girl Mia to a Group 1st at her very first sanction match last weekend! Watch for new photos of the girls later this week.
