My name is Pudge, aka WWKC CH Meme Zee's Sweet Mary Jane, CGC, CDX  NA RE.. These titles combined titles earned me a Versitility title from the Havanese Club of America. I am very proud of myself. I got my name  because as a puppy, I was very prime and proper and they thought I could be wearing a pair of maryjanes shoes and look just fine. My Mom is Mare's Zee Dotes; you can see her on the homepage.  I've completed my World Wide Kennel Club and Havanese Club of America championships; have passed the Canine Good Citizen test. and completed my AKC obedience title for a CDX (Companion Dog Excellent).   I did do some  agility competition too  and got a 1st place in my first agility trial--that was fun. I had a bit of a problem at the second trial. Someone changed my diet and, being a very private dog, I looked for a private bathroom. As luck would have it, a perfect place presented itself in the form of a nice dark tunnel. When the course timer said it was "OK to go", I left as fast as I could run to the tunnel, while everyone cheered.  Even though I was hurrying it took me a while before I could come back out. I raced out expecting loud cheers and there was nothing but dead silence.  I didn't even get to finish running the course. Someone said there was a "rule" about "desecrating" equipment.  I don't understand--when you have to go you have to go---at least I was private about it. I did get a second leg (you need 3 to get a title) but it was by the skin of my beautiful white teeth. The next trial, I was told that I had to move faster than someone crawling through a mine field in order to qualify.  I heard Meme say no more agility for Pudge. Five years later, I got to got back to the agility ring and finish my novice title.  So I got to add NA (which means Novice Agility ) Yippee for me!!!  I just finished completing my 3rd Rally title (RE) and the jury is still out on what I am going to do next. Perhaps a Therapy Dog title would be fun to pursue.  In between all my performance exercises, I had some very beautiful babies. My babies have gone to live in Indiana, Colorado, New Jersey , Maryland, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio and Kentucky. Some of their pictures are below.  

My favorite thing to do is jump. I can jump so high, I have been known to jump 3 feet straight up onto a table and then its a short hop to the kitchen counter. Its a wonderful place to view the world and eat the butter.
