Raider the Basset hound

er the Basset hound

When I am not showing my Rabbits I show my Basset hound Raider. He is a very funny boy who loves to go to shows and get special time with me. All the other Basset hound people are very nice and love Raider. He gets treats and lots of love. He really loves it when his Mother ( breeder& co-owner) Liz Leo is there with her daughters.
He got his first First place at the SCBH specialty in Sacramento as an 18month old. He is doing great in the big Dog classes also 3rd place both days in a very large class at the NCBH specialty held at Ellen Johnson's winery in Healsburg. Here are a couple pictures and a cute one of Raider with my other dogs Leo and Elvis.

Molina's babies

Here are a few pictures of Molina's babies. It is so lovely this time of year I wanted to show the flowers and lovely bunnies. I had trouble getting Moira to sit still in front of the Roses she is such a little piggy she kept eating them. Silly girl.
Moya is in front of the Yellow roses. Moira in front of the pink roses and Marley is in front of the Chestnut tree with the pink and yellow flowers that look like snap dragons. Enjoy

Molina and Babies

Here is a picture of Casey's Molina and her babies. The Dad is Chu's Harry Winston I don't have a picture of him yet. It took almost a year to get babies from her. She had lots of success at the shows with 7 BIS and lots of BOB. I am looking forward to the babies coming to shows. They are just adorable.

I love to spin and started with my Ashford Traditional. Thats how I got into Showing Angora's. I saw an article in Country woman magazine about an English Angora so I called ARBA and they gave me Betty's Chu's phone number. I don't know if they always do that or if it was someone who knew her. But it was to my good fortune. I have Loved every Bunny minute. Spnning and showing has been my joy for about 15 years. I also have a Joy traveler now to take to shows and an electric spinner I bought from Betty. Here are some pic's of my wheels and hand spun 100% Angora. And a good looking fellow named Monte.

Here are some pic's of my yarn. The first are Kid Mohair 75% with 15%Moreno and 10%English Angora. Its wonderful. I've been selling it to a local yarn shop and at Rabbit shows. If your interested please email me. billyray097@yahoo.com. I have the natural color White , Grey and Red goat, a lovely warm brown.Also some Easter egg and Kool-aid dyed. That was fun to do. The cat is essential to all yarn projects.
