Tarot/Ettore Noblesse Charm
Tarot is from a long line of beautiful Papillon in Europe. We imported him from Slovakia as a pup, with plans for agility and conformation. Between Covid and recovering from a play injury, our training has been on hold-but he is a go anywhere happy little dude, who runs with the Border Collies like a Big Dog. He's a fun little guy to train and teaching me a lot! Loves hiking, the beach, MUD!, his tennis ball and swimming 
He is VwD1, Factor V11, NAD and PAP-PRA1 DNA Normal/Clear, knees and heart are normal. Red sable

PRA/NAD Clear 
Patellas normal












Vibe/Totem's Good JuJu 
This feisty little BCx is a character! So loving, so much fun and so much potential!! She loves disc and agility so far, planning on dabbling in barn hunt also. If I still did flyball, she would be a natural.
