Inquiring Minds...

Shawna's birthday has escaped me as you know. So, I contacted the breeder and asked if there was an easy way to determine when Shawna was born. 


Sandy sent back the data from the AKC registry.  And, Shawna is slightly younger than I thought!  

Name:        Dawnglow Return To Sender

Sex:         Female

Breed:       Spaniel (English Cocker)

Color:       Red

Birth Date:  09/14/1994

Sire:        Hobbithill McMurphys Optimum

Dam:         Dawnglow Demoiselle

Breeder:     Sandra L LaFlamme

Instead of Shawna approaching her 18th birthday next month, she passed her 17th birthday last month.  Well, 17 is nothing to sneeze at for a dog, and she is still doing very well.  I just checked the web for conversion of dog years to human years. It depends on a bunch of stuff but basically, Shawna is the equivalent of 82-94 years old now.  In other words, she is a really old dog! 

Ciao,
