This is an old page I came across and think is funny.
Mia was
Phoebe's only pup and is Vader's
Mother.
Phoebe is also the sister to Rhea and
Athena.
I call them the
Titan
goddesses. They were in fact the foundation of my breeding
program.

September 22 - 28 2008- Giant Schnauzer Club of America's
National Specialty and two Mid-Western Regional Specialties- St.
Louis, MO- We Magna owners had a GREAT time at the two regional and
the National Specialty in St. Louis where we once again gathered
together. We worked and played hard and it was all worth it. Joe and
Vader traveled with Daphne and myself as well as our little six month
old "Sarah Divine" who went with us on the trip because Mary (Zoya's
mom) took her home from the National to Texas to show her. Zoya and
Mia-Mi showed in performance events and both won a leg towards their
titles and Mia-Mi now has her Rally Excellent title completed.
Congratulations to Debbie and Mary on those wins. Vader won Best Puppy
at the first Regional and Best Opp Puppy at the National and won his
class every day. He is an awesome boy and in a year or two he will be
a very strong competitor. Sarah won her class half the time but we
actually leash broke her on the show site so that was pretty good!
Daphne got an award of merit the first day and was best of opposite
sex the last day. She and Mia-Mi both made the cut at the National.
Tom and Lisa and their new baby flew out to join us for the National
and he showed Mia-Mi and did a great job making the first cut at the
National! Fitting for her last conformation show since he taught her
to love shows though she was shown by a hander for her title. Elaine
flew out and Daphne and she are now BF's. We met others we have
welcomed into the Magna fold as well. Daphne and Sarah Divine have fan
clubs now too. They are cute girls and they loved the attention! So we
definitely had a good trip and had tons of fun. We will share our win
pictures when they arrive. Thank you to the Magna owners who attended
for your help! We could not have such success and fun if there was not
such generosity of time and effort.

August 2008- GSCA Eastern Regional Specialty- Magna had a great
trip to Massachusetts for the specialty. With Vader winning a 5 point
major the first day and Best in Sweepstakes the second we were happy.
Then we finished two championships on Brutus and Lilly who both got 5
point majors also. I think we also had three reserves in the weekend
as well. Mia-Mi won best of breed one day as well and so we had a great
weekend with friends and beautiful dogs. It was so much fun to see
three champions from the same litter in the ring together for the
first and last time for these three since they will not be shown much
after this time. We also got some fantastic new pictures this week so
be sure to check out the websites of
Cammy,
Brutus,
Vader, and the three sisters;
Lilly,
Daphne,
Mia-Mi.

At Magna's recent annual party we invited researchers from the
National Institute of Health to come collect samples for their
research project on Squamous Cell Carcinoma. This is the cancer that
causes toe cancer in Giants. It is unique to just a few breeds
and they need us to participate. They also shared their
samples with the University of Missouri's researchers who are doing a
seizure study. These are very important studies and NIH left with 40
samples. They said they would have been thrilled to leave with 10 but
40 was more than what they had collected in total elsewhere so they
were really happy. We hope that the Giant Schnauzer Club of America
will have them come to the National Specialty and encourage people to
bring their dogs by their booth for samples to be taken. They need
healthy dogs, affected dogs, and dogs from every pedigree possible so
if you own a giant, please consider having your dogs DNA sample taken.
It is just a simple blood draw and all information is completely
confidential. You can contact Dana Mosher at NIH and be sure to tell
her you want the sample shared and she will give a portion to the
Seizure study as well. The packet she will send you contains all your
vet would need to collect the sample and also the materials to ship
the sample back. It is really easy and you can just take it when you
have the next appointment with the vet. Dana can be reached at;
301-451-9390 or email her
mosherd@mail.nih.gov.

Casey is in the Magna News again. I found some old video of
when I was training him for his owner prior to leaving Magna.
Remember, he is the one year old I sold as a well started service dog
some time ago.
Visit Casey's page. This is
really fun video so I hope you enjoy it. If your next puppy or current
dog would benefit from training, we welcome your inquiries.. I have
lots of owner and dog page updates to do and this is no exception but
this video and others I have coming should be really fun for you.
