Yesterday we took Iggy to a schipperke party. Yes, that’s right – there were 24 schipperkes in one place!<\/p>\n

So adorable! The dogs were all very well behaved, played and lounged together. Iggy won the award for “Best Dressed!” The pot luck was great, we made pizzas with fresh basil, all the food was really good. Iggy was the youngest dog there at just over a year, the oldest was over 17 and a grandfather.<\/p>\n

It was so cool to see a schipperke with a tail (there were at least of them), and getting a broup of schipperkes to cooperate is much like herding cats.<\/p>\n

Here’s a video I assembled of the event:<\/p>\n

And a gallery of many pictures Aviva and I took.<\/p>\n
