Well, here I am all grown up - my show name is Sumsai
Shenai at Yacanto and I am 18 months old. I stand and 
show but have yet to get into the show ring - only 
because we are all waiting for my coat to come 
through - slow process mum says !!

Sumsai Shenai at Yacanto here, still practising for the 
show ring - I am now 18 months April 2007 - one day 
mum says just got to get my adult coat in !!

good, don't you all agree ????

I thought you might like to see Chico - Sumsai San 
Shiku - isn't he handsome - and if I ever grow up 
looking half as beautiful as he is I know my mum and 
dad will be very happy - I hope that they realise 
though that he is a boy and I am a girl LOL.

Well, hi everyone. thought I would share this photo 
of my very handsome father - show name Sumsai 
Shallaco - Ted to his many friends and admirers. Smiling 
here after winning his class at Crufts 2006 for our 
breeder Pat Lawson - God I hope that one day I can 
win at Crufts - dream on mum says LOL.

Well, hi folks, here I am again at l4 weeks - My official 
name for you all to remember is Sumsai Shenai Yacanto 
and I was bred by Pat Lawson. I am just beginning to 
practice this "stand and show" but it is a bit boring !!

Nikita here, just getting ready for my daily groom. Why does
mum keep brushing me ?? am I not just beautiful as I am ??

For this grooming lark, eh eh - I have to lie down 
as well - these humans don't half put us through it 
- ah well that's a dogs life for you LOL

Hi everyone, Nikita here just practising for the show 
ring at l0 weeks - well you have just got to start 
early if you want to get ahead of the game. Don't I

want to go to the toilet - please !!

Mark with his Christmas present, his first chow chow 
puppy at seven and a half weeks old - Nikita to her 
friends - one very proud dad holding said Chow 
Chow puppy LOL. Happy New Year Everyone.

Hi folks, I'm the new kid on the block at the Yacanto 
Kennels - no I am not a shar pei - I am a distinguished 
Chow Chow and my name for you all to remember is Nikita.

Well folks, here we are dad and me just getting to know one
another - I think I am going to love my dad he is so proud of
me already would you believe and I have only just arrived !!

Here I am, Niki, practising for the show ring after my 
tedious grooming session. Look everyone I have a black
tongue LOL.- oh and by the way I am l6 weeks 
and today is the 6th March 2006.

Sumsai Shenai Yacanto here - well OK its 
Niki - but you know I have to become posh 
soon "I am a show dog yipeeeeee!!!

I am getting better at this "standing and showing" 
but I think dad is getting a bit frustrated because I 
keep wanting to look at my friend Gimli who is 
standing just outside the window - such 
impatience from these humans LOL.

Yes, I am getting my head up better now and I don't 
feel as inclined to fidget about as much - I guess I 
must be growing up now and just beginning to realise 
that this showing game IS SERIOUS - ah well 
let them believe that I believe that LOL.
