Good work! Ivy and Bambi are beautiful! Clover and Ann are adorable and Butch is a nice looking Boer. Are you going to enter the MiniNubians in the online show? They look mighty nice!

Oh, and I have to ask... Did you ever clip Arthur??? I'd love to see how he looks clipped. I just KNOW he's a beauty under all that hair! Not that he isn't gorgeous with it, but you can see their body better when their clipped. Plus those SPOTS! LOL
