Dee Blanco is one of the vets that I consulted with when we first got Zeke.
I’m pretty sure I have already heard what she has to say in these two conferences via the hour-long consultation I had with her; I doubt her position has changed. But I thought you or some of the Apso Aficionados might be interested…

Vickie loves this photo of Josie and Melissa. And, so do I. Notice both Josie and the Foodog are in the same pose! I’ve spent the past several days compiling photos, sent to me by various people, from National Specialty week. In about a half hour, I’m out the door for a quick road trip to meet up with Julie in Lincoln, Nebraska, collect several dogs including Edie Bedie, dog talk and celebrate Fernando’s accomplishments. In the meantime, enjoy these photos.
Fernando wins!!
Posted: October 27, 2007 Filed under: FFT Lhasa Apsos 4 CommentsFernando was awarded Best of Breed at the first special, National Specialty week!! He beat close to 40 other champions, many Best in Show winners. Friday, at the National Specialty, he was awarded Best of Opposite, again beating Best in Show dogs, including last year’s National Specialty winner. What an honor for such a young dog! I see a great future for Fernando!
Keep on runnin’ Roman!

Hi Debby, Julie, attached are shots from our last CPE agility trial, end of Sept., St. Cloud, MN. Roman did really well on the Saturday, getting some Qs in the games and jumpers, one standard course. Sunday was very hot, we did ok but needed a 2 hour cool down in the car with the ac. Roman is starting to do the weaves with enthusiasm, and a little hip hop through them. The picture of the shute, he’s not going through, but backing out. That’s an obstacle we need work on. Everyone was laughing, I didn’t get it until after the run. The photographer said he went through half way, then did a perfect straight line reverse. Leave it to a Lhasa to have some creativity. Use any photos, permission given by crystalimagepetphotography.com. Thanks for your time. Mary R.

Panchen question..
Posted: October 22, 2007 Filed under: Gompa Lhasa Apsos Leave a commentGail asked: Wondered what it was like for Panchen after he had his surgery and he couldn’t see at all, what was his mental status?
Panchen couldn’t see at all before his surgery, so the only change was in his spirit. He was back to his old self. The headaches must have been awful. The morning after his surgery, he’d already started his Panny Dance. It was only in retrospect I realized I hadn’t seen that for months. His surgery was done by a specialist. One of the reasons I went to Dr. Hammond rather than my own vet was to learn if he had any vision. Not sure what, if any, options I would have had if there was some vision. He was completely blind. One of the reasons glaucoma is diagnosed much earlier in people is the headaches. A dog can’t tell you about headaches; a person knows. The pressure that builds up in the eyeball creates the headaches. So, to answer your question, his mental status was much improved after surgery. He hadn’t been able to see for ??? a few weeks prior to surgery. The surgery relieved his pain. For that, he was happy!
